Nucleation phenomena in a nonuniform atomic fluid in the electrical field

arXiv:cond-mat/0009356

Abstract

The density functional approach is used to study the gas-to-liquid and liquid-to-gas nucleation phenomena in a fluid of two-level atoms in an external electrical field. The influence of the field on the surface tension and nucleation and cavitation barriers is discussed.
