Abstract
This chapter is concerned with the application of laser light scattering, including photon correlation spectroscopy, to critical opalescence in real fluid systems.(1) We begin with a brief discussion of critical phenomena and then provide an outline of the subjects covered. The aim is not to treat the subject exhaustively, but rather to point out topics of current interest, and to provide a guide to the vast literature on critical opalescence and to possible future directions of research for the noninitiate.
