Kinetics of nucleation in near-critical fluids
Abstract
A simple set of rate equations is proposed to describe nucleation and growth of droplets in metastable, near-critical fluids. These equations are used in conjunction with steady-state nucleation theory to compute completion times for phase separation in binary mixtures. Reexamination of available experimental data provides little if any evidence for the major failure of conventional nucleation theory that has been postulated on the basis of these data.

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.
