Interfacial instability induced by lateral vapor pressure fluctuation in bounded thin liquid-vapor layers [PDF]
We study an instability of thin liquid-vapor layers bounded by rigid parallel walls from both below and above. In this system, the interfacial instability is induced by lateral vapor pressure fluctuation, which is in turn attributed to the effect of phase change: evaporation occurs at a hotter portion of the interface and condensation at a colder one ...

An Approach to the Statistics of Turbulence [PDF]
A calculational approach in fluid turbulence is presented. Use is made of the attracting nature of the fluid-dynamic dynamical system. An approximate approach is offerred that effectively propagates the statistics in time. Loss of sensitivity to an initial probability density functional and generation of steady-state statistical effects is suggested.

A Theoretical Analysis on Enthalpy of Vaporization: Temperature-Dependence and Singularity at the Critical State [PDF]
Accurate evaluation of enthalpy of vaporization (or latent heat of vaporization) and its variation with temperature is of great interest in practical applications, especially for combustion of liquid fuels. Currently, a theoretically rigorous formulation for latent heat is still not in place; and the existing fitting formulas for various fluids are, in

Experimental study of aerosol deposition in distal lung bronchioles [PDF]
The deposition of micron particles finds importance in meteorology and several engineering applications such as deposition of dust in gas lines, carbon deposition in engine exhaust, designing effective air-cleaning systems and estimating deposition of inhaled drug or atmospheric pollutants to determine its consequences on human health.

Comment on "An optimized potential for carbon dioxide" [PDF]
A molecular model for carbon dioxide is assessed regarding vapor-liquid equilibrium properties. Large deviations, being above 15 %, are found for vapor pressure and saturated vapor density in the entire temperature range.

Impact-induced Vaporization During Accretion of Planetary Bodies [PDF]
Giant impacts dominate the late stages of accretion of rocky planets. They contribute to the heating, melting, and sometimes vaporizing of the bodies involved in the impacts. Due to fractionation during melting and vaporization, planet-building impacts can significantly change the composition and geochemical signatures of rocky objects.
