Experimental approaches to universal out-of-equilibrium scaling laws: turbulent liquid crystal and other developments
This is a brief survey of recent experimental studies on out-of-equilibrium scaling laws, focusing on two prominent situations where non-trivial universality classes have been identified theoretically: absorbing-state phase transitions and growing interfaces. First the article summarizes main results obtained for electrically-driven turbulent liquid crystal, which exhibited the scaling laws for …
