Igniting homogeneous nucleation [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2005 Transient homogeneous nucleation is studied in the limit of large critical sizes. Starting from pure monomers, three eras of transient nucleation are characterized in the classic Becker-D ring kinetic equations with two different models of discrete diffusivity: the classic Turnbull-Fisher formula and an expression describing thermally driven growth of

Nonisothermal homogeneous nucleation [PDF]
The Journal of Chemical Physics, 1992 Classical homogeneous nucleation theory is extended to nonisothermal conditions through simultaneous cluster mass and energy balances. The transient nucleation of water vapor following a sudden increase in saturation ratio is studied by numerically solving the coupled mass and energy balance equations.

Homogeneous nucleation of dislocations [PDF]
Physics of the Solid State, 2011 The mechanism and stochastic properties of the homogeneous nucleation of dislocations have been studied. An approach has been proposed for determining the nucleation rate based on consideration of the lifetimes of a metastable state. Primary data have been obtained using the molecular dynamics method. The dependences of the nucleation rate on the shear

Temperature Dependence of Homogeneous Nucleation in Ice. [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2019 Ice nucleation is a process of great relevance in physics, chemistry, technology, and environmental sciences; much theoretical effort has been devoted to its understanding, but it still remains a topic of intense research.

Investigation of Effective Parameters on Self-Nucleation Phenomenon in Semi-Crystalline Polymers [PDF]
Baspārish, 2022 The crystallinity of semi-crystalline polymers is affected by both nucleation and growth processes, and the nucleation phase controls the kinetics of crystallization. In general, there are two types of homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleation.

Forward flux sampling calculation of homogeneous nucleation rates from aqueous NaCl solutions. [PDF]
Journal of Chemical Physics, 2017 We used molecular dynamics simulations and the path sampling technique known as forward flux sampling to study homogeneous nucleation of NaCl crystals from supersaturated aqueous solutions at 298 K and 1 bar. Nucleation rates were obtained for a range of

Size dependence of volume and surface nucleation rates for homogeneous freezing of supercooled water droplets [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2011 The relative roles of volume and surface nucleation were investigated for the homogeneous freezing of pure water droplets. Experiments were carried out in a cryogenic laminar aerosol flow tube using supercooled water aerosols with maximum volume ...
