Nonequilibrium dynamics of the critical Casimir force — •Markus Gross1,2, Andrea Gambassi3, and Siegfried Dietrich1,21MPI für Intelligente Systeme, Stuttgart — 2IV. Institut für Theoretische Physik, Universität Stuttgart — 3SISSA - International School for Advanced Studies and INFN, Trieste, Italy

We discuss how the critical Casimir force, primarily investigated in equilibrium conditions, can be determined as function of time for a general Landau-Ginzburg model. We focus here on the conserved dynamics of a fluid in film geometry, described by the equations of the so-called `model B'. Specifically, we analyze the nonequilibrium time-evolution following a rapid quench from an initial homogeneous high-temperature state to the critical temperature. Concerning the behavior at the walls bounding the film, we assume that the fluid order parameter (e.g., concentration or density) shows a strong preferential adsorption -- a behavior which is typically observed in experiments. The resulting dynamics of the order parameter and the critical Casimir force are discussed within analytical as well as numerical approaches.
