Spherical Interface. II. Molecular Theory
Abstract
The statistical mechanical theory of plane and spherical interfaces is developed on the basis of the virial theorem and the Gibbsian mechanical and thermodynamic definitions of surface tension. The expressions for the relevant thermodynamic functions in terms of molecular variables are employed in a discussion of the curvature dependence of surface tension which leads to an asymptotic expansion of the grand partition function in terms of the geometrical parameters that characterize the interface and thus provide a criterion for the range of validity of macroscopic concepts.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
