Parameterizations for sulfuric acid/water nucleation rates

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present parameterized equations for calculation of sulfuric acid/water critical nucleus compositions and homogeneous nucleation rates, which are in agreement with the thermodynamically consistent version of classical binary homogeneous nuclear nucleation theory incorporating the hydration effect.
Journal ArticleDOI

A general relation between the nucleation work and the size of the nucleus in multicomponent nucleation

TL;DR: In this paper, a general theorem that relates the variation of the work of formation of the critical nucleus with chemical potential and the size and composition of critical nuclei was proved. But the results applied to the smallest nuclei of a few molecules only.

The Kinetics of Phase Transitions in Binary Systems

TL;DR: In this paper, a kinetic theory of phase transitions in two component systems is presented which is applicable to the transitions, vapor to liquid and liquid to liquid, characterized by a two-dimensional vector which can be used in conjunction with the equation of continuity to develop a partial differential equation which determines the kinetics of the process.

Experimental studies on the applicability of the Kelvin equation to highly curved concave menisci

TL;DR: In this article, a series of experiments designed to test the validity of the Kelvin equation by direct measurement of the mean radius of curvature of the surface of cyclohexane condensed between crossed mica cylinders was conducted.

Self‐Nucleation in the Sulfuric Acid‐Water System

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors adapted Howard Reiss' ''Vector model'' to calculate the self-nucleation rate for the sulfuric acid water system and similar systems and concluded that rapid self-Nucleation would take place at sulfur acid partial pressures in the range 10−8−10−10 mm Hg.

Determination of dipole coupling constants using heteronuclear multiple quantum NMR

TL;DR: In this article, the problem of extracting dipole couplings from a system of N spins I = 1/2 and one spin S by NMR techniques is analyzed, with particular emphasis being placed on the superior resolution available in HMQ spectra.

Condensation of a supersaturated vapor. III. The homogeneous nucleation of CCl4, CHCl3, CCl3F, and C2H2Cl4

TL;DR: The upward thermal diffusion cloud chamber was used to measure the supersaturations required to cause an observed rate of homogeneous nucleation of 2 to 3 drops cm−3⋅sec−1.
