The nucleation of ice is vital in cloud physics and impacts on a broad range of matters from
the cryopreservation of food, tissues, organs, and stem cells to the prevention of icing on …

Estimating the homogeneous ice nucleation rate from undercooled liquid water is crucial for
understanding many important physical phenomena and technological applications, and …

Heterogeneous ice nucleation experiments have been performed with four different ice
nuclei (IN), namely nonadecanol, silica, silver iodide and Arizona test dust. All IN are either …

Pure water can be substantially supercooled below the melting temperature without
transforming into ice. The achievable supercooling can be enhanced by adding solutes or …

Liquid water can persist in a supercooled state to below 238 K in the Earth's atmosphere, a
temperature range where homogeneous nucleation becomes increasingly probable …

What makes a material a good ice nucleating agent? Despite the importance of
heterogeneous ice nucleation to a variety of fields, from cloud science to microbiology, major …

There has been increasing interest in ice nucleation research in the last decade. To identify
important gaps in our knowledge of ice nucleation processes and their impacts, two …

Accurately estimating the nucleation rate is crucial in studying ice nucleation and ice-
promoting and anti-freeze strategies. In classical nucleation theory, estimates of the ice …

Understanding the mechanisms underpinning heterogeneous ice nucleation in the
presence of ionic inclusions is important for fields such as cryopreservation and for improved …

Heterogeneous ice nucleation (HIN) is the dominant mode of ice formation, while its kinetic
pathways remain poorly understood. The classical nucleation theory suggests a one-step …
