Abstract

An intuitive derivation of the critical bulk viscosity is presented for one- and two-component fluids in a general form. In addition to critical acoustics, we examine slowly relaxing pressure, temperature, and density relaxations after stepwise volume or pressure changes. Their measurement will yield information of the time correlation function on the diagonal part of the stress.
