Homogeneous nucleation in spatially inhomogeneous systems [PDF]
, 1990 Homogeneous nucleation of a vapor in the presence of the loss of clusters by diffusion and thermophoretic drift is investigated. Analytical results are obtained for the cluster size distribution and the rate of nucleation by solving the modified ...

Modelling new particle formation events in the South African savannah
South African Journal of Science, 2014 Africa is one of the less studied continents with respect to atmospheric aerosols. Savannahs are complex dynamic systems sensitive to climate and land-use changes, but the interaction of these systems with the atmosphere is not well understood ...

Observing classical nucleation theory at work by monitoring phase transitions with molecular precision. [PDF]
, 2014 It is widely accepted that many phase transitions do not follow nucleation pathways as envisaged by the classical nucleation theory. Many substances can traverse intermediate states before arriving at the stable phase. The apparent ubiquity of multi-step

The decay of hot KK space [PDF]
, 2015 The non-perturbative instabilities of hot Kaluza-Klein spacetime are investigated. In addition to the known instability of hot space (the nucleation of 4D black holes) and the known instability of KK space (the nucleation of bubbles of nothing by quantum

Nucleation Behaviors of Adipic Acid in Different Polarity Solvent Based on Metastable Zone Width
Crystals, 2022 In this contribution, we experimentally determined the metastable zone width (MSZW) of adipic acid (AA) in different polar solvents to reveal the nucleation behavior.

Anomalous Dynamics of Recalescence Front in Crystal Growth Processes: Theoretical Background
Crystals, 2022 A theory for crystal nucleation and growth with the recalescence front is developed. The theory is based on the saddle-point technique for evaluating a Laplace-type integral as well as the small parameter method for solving the moving boundary heat ...

Diffusion-Limited Reaction in One Dimension: Paired and Unpaired Nucleation
, 2001 We consider the dynamics of diffusing particles in one space dimension with annihilation on collision and nucleation (creation of particles) with constant probability per unit time and length. The cases of nucleation of single particles and nucleation in
