Correlations and Ostwald ripening
Abstract
This paper examines the effect of diffusive interactions, and the correlations they create between particles, on Ostwald ripening. The effect accounts for a persistent discrepancy between theory and experiment, in which the distribution of particle sizes has been more broad and flat than mean-field theory predicts. A new model system is proposed to study the problem, and a hierarchy of equations derived from it is expanded in powers of the square root of the volume fraction. The time devlopment of correlations is analyzed through an unusual perturbation theory. The resulting differential equations are solved numerically and compared with experiment.

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.
