Dynamics of homogeneous nucleation [PDF]
The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2015 The classical nucleation theory for homogeneous nucleation is formulated as a theory for a density fluctuation in a supersaturated gas at a given temperature. But molecular dynamics simulations reveal that it is small cold clusters which initiates the nucleation.

The QCD phase transition in the inhomogeneous Universe [PDF]
, 2000 We investigate a new mechanism for the cosmological QCD phase transition: inhomogeneous nucleation. The primordial temperature fluctuations, measured to be $\delta T/T \sim 10^{-5}$, are larger than the tiny temperature interval, in which bubbles would ...

Homogeneous ice nucleation in adsorbed water films: a theoretical approach [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and PhysicsIce nucleation plays a critical role in cloud formation and atmospheric processes, influencing precipitation and climate. In this study, we present a theoretical approach for describing homogeneous ice nucleation within adsorbed water films on insoluble ...

A Model of Liquid-phase Homogeneous Nucleation in a System Containing Seed Particles [Translated]†
KONA Powder and Particle Journal, 2014 This paper deals with particle formation by homogeneous nucleation in a system containing seed particles. A model of homogeneous nucleation previously developed by the present authors (Kousaka and Nomura, 1997) is ...

Homogeneous nucleation of silicon
Journal of Aerosol Science, 1994 Abstract The homogeneous nucleation of silicon from the SiHCl system was studied theoretically for a wide range of compositions and temperatures. Contour plots of the conversion ratio and the chemical potential to nucleate are displayed. Nucleation rates were calculated using a modified classical nucleation model (Girshick et al. (1990) Aerosol Sci.

Homogeneous vs. heterogeneous nucleation in water-dicarboxylic acid systems [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2009 Binary heterogeneous nucleation of water-succinic/glutaric/malonic/adipic acid on nanometer-sized particles is investigated within the frame of classical heterogeneous nucleation theory. Homogeneous nucleation is also included for comparison. It is found

Homogeneous versus Heterogeneous Zeolite Nucleation [PDF]
Angewandte Chemie International Edition in English, 1995 Aggregates of fractal dimension were found in the intermediate gel phases that organize prior to nucleation and crystallization (shown right) of silicalite from a homogeneous reaction mixture. Small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering studies prove that for zeolites nucleation may be homogeneous or heterogeneous.

Bubbling the False Vacuum Away [PDF]
, 2007 We investigate the role of nonperturbative, bubble-like inhomogeneities on the decay rate of false-vacuum states in two and three-dimensional scalar field theories.
