Nucleation Theory

This monograph covers the major available routes of theoretical research of nucleation phenomena--phenomenological models, semi-phenomenological theories, density functional theories and microscopic approaches--with emphasis on the formation of liquid droplets from a metastable vapor. It also illust...
