متن کاملNucleation in Gas–Liquid Transitions
The dynamic processes that lead to the formation of a new phase in pure fluids and multicomponent mixtures have become a lively area of research in physical chemistry in the past 15 years (1, 2). This burst of attention is driven by the recognition of the central role of the dynamics of phase transitions in atmospheric chemistry, chemical engineering, and material processing. However, few under...
متن کاملBubble-Nucleation Rates for Cosmological Phase Transitions
We estimate bubble-nucleation rates for cosmological phase transitions. We concentrate on the evaluation of the pre-exponential factor, for which we give approximate analytical expressions. Our approach relies on the use of a real coarse-grained potential. The consistency of the calculation implies that the coarse-graining scale must be larger than the typical scale of the critical bubble. We s...
متن کاملCoordination of behavioral hierarchies during environmental transitions in Caenorhabditis elegans
For animals inhabiting multiple environments, the ability to select appropriate behaviors is crucial as their adaptability is often context dependent. Caenorhabditis elegans uses distinct gaits to move on land and in water. Gait transitions can potentially coordinate behaviors associated with distinct environments. We investigated whether land and water differentially affect the behavioral repe...
متن کاملSupercooling and Nucleation in Phase Transitions of the Early Universe
The three phase transitions – the GUT, the electro-weak and the quarkhadron, which the universe is assumed to have undergone produce very important physical effects if they are assumed to be of first order. It is also important that enough supercooling is produced at these transitions so that the rate of nucleation of the lower temperature phase out of the higher temperature phase is large. We ...
