Physical aging is an active subject in statistical physics as it could lead to the generalization of equilibrium statistical physics to weakly out of equilibrium systems. In this context, where polymers and spin glasses have already been extensively studied despite not still well understood, theoretical works have shown new interests in systems undergoing a second order phase transition, where model ingredients are based on simpler physical arguments. Therefore, we studied in details a second order phase transition in liquid crystals : the Fréedericksz transition, in order to monitor experimentally aging at its critical point. We showed that the equations usually proposed to describe the dynamics of the transition (Landau like development o...
