abstract = {Due to long-range correlations and slow dynamics of
concentration fluctuations in the vicinity of the gas-liquid
critical point, shear flow is very effective in distorting
the microstructure of near-critical fluids. The anisotropic
nature of the shear-field renders the microstructure highly
anisotropic, leading to dichroism. Experiments on the
dichroic behavior can thus be used to test theoretical
predictions on microstructural order under shear flow
conditions. We performed both static and dynamic dichroism
and turbidity measurements on a colloid-polymer mixture,
existing of silica spheres (radius 51 nm) and
polydimethylsiloxane polymer (molar weight 204 kg/mol).
Sufficiently far away from the critical point, in the
mean-field region, the experimental data are in good
agreement with theory. Very close to the critical point,
beyond mean field, for which no theory exists yet, an
unexpected decrease of dichroism on approach of the critical
point is observed. Moreover, we do not observe critical
slowing down of shear-induced dichroism, right up to the
critical point, in contrast to the turbidity.},
