Molecular clusters are ubiquitous constituents of the ambient atmosphere, that can grow into
larger sizes forming new aerosol particles. The formation and growth of small clusters into …

New particle formation of liquid or solid nanoparticles from gas-phase precursors is a
decisive process in Earth's atmosphere and is considered one of the largest uncertainties in …

The Atmospheric Cluster Dynamics Code (ACDC) is presented and explored. This program
was created to study the first steps of atmospheric new particle formation by examining the …

Filling a gap in the literature, this crucial publication on the renowned Lifshitz-Slezov-
Wagner Theory of first-order phase transitions is authored by one of the scientists who gave …

We review how phase-field models contributed to the understanding of various aspects of
crystal nucleation, including homogeneous and heterogeneous processes, and their role in …

Homogeneous nucleation from the vapor phase has been a well-defined area of research
for∼ 120 yr. In this paper, we present an overview of the key experimental and theoretical …

The synthesis of nanomaterials, with characteristic dimensions of 1 to 100 nm, is a key
component of nanotechnology. Vapor-phase synthesis of nanomaterials has numerous …

Gas phase nucleation is a universal phenomenon that plays a crucial role in both natural
settings and industrial processes. Despite more than 100 years' work to decipher this highly …

Crystals may not always nucleate directly in the supersaturated old phase, but rather in a
precursory metastable phase. This so-called two-step (2S) nucleation of crystals has …
