Enthalpy effect on the kinetics of concurrent nucleation and chemical aging of aqueous organic aerosols. The stage of thermal relaxation

Yuri S. Djikaev, Batradz I. Djikkaity

The size and composition distribution of an ensemble of aqueous organic droplets, evolving via nucleation and concomitant chemical aging, may be affected by the latent heat of cond…

On the Fokker-Planck approximation in the kinetic equation of multicomponent classical nucleation theory

Yuri S. Djikaev, Eli Ruckenstein, Mark Swihart

We examine the validity of the Fokker-Planck equation with linear force coefficients as an approximation to the kinetic equation of nucleation in homogeneous isothermal multicompon…

Kinetic equation of concurrent nucleation and chemical aging of an ensemble of aqueous organic aerosols

Yuri S. Djikaev, Eli Ruckenstein

Using the formalism of the classical nucleation theory, we derive a novel kinetic equation for the size and composition distribution of an ensemble of aqueous organic aerosols, evo…

Dependence of homogeneous crystal nucleation in water droplets on their radii and its implication for modeling the formation of ice particles in cirrus clouds

Yuri S. Djikaev, Eli Ruckenstein

We propose an approximation for the total ice nucleation rate J=J(T,R) in supercooled water droplets as a function of both droplet radius R and temperature T, taking account of bot…

Free energy of formation of a crystal nucleus in incongruent solidification: Implication for modeling the crystallization of aqueous nitric acid droplets in type 1 polar stratospheric clouds

Yuri S. Djikaev, Eli Ruckenstein

Using the formalism of the classical nucleation theory, we derive an expression for the reversible work of formation of a binary crystal nucleus in a liquid binary solution o…

Probabilistic approach to the length-scale dependence of the effect of water hydrogen bonding on hydrophobic hydration

Yuri S. Djikaev, Eli Ruckenstein

We present a probabilistic approach to water-water hydrogen bonding that allows one to obtain an analytic expression for the number of bonds per water molecule as a function of bot…
