A kinetic theory of homogeneous bubble nucleation
We present a kinetic theory of homogeneous bubble nucleation based on explicit calculation of the single-molecule evaporation and condensation rates as a function of the size of the vapor embryo. The surface condensation rate is calculated from the kinetic theory of gases, and the surface evaporation rate is related to the rate of escape of molecules from a potential well in the field establish...
متن کاملA consistent approach to bubble-nucleation theory
We summarize recent work on the consistent calculation of bubble-nucleation rates. Our approach is based on the notion of a real coarse-grained potential. The bubble-nucleation rate is calculated through an expansion around the semiclassical saddle point associated with tunnelling. We resolve outstanding problems related to the convexity of the potential, the double-counting of the effect of fl...
متن کاملBiodegradation Modeling of Nitrophenolic Pollutant in a Slurry Bubble Reactor
Biodegradation kinetics of 4-nitrophenol (PNP) in aqueous solution by a gram negative soil bacterium, Ralstoniaeutropha was firstly studied in a small scale batch reactor. The degradation of PNP was evaluated at initial PNP concentrations ranging from 3 mg/L to 14 mg/L. The rate of PNP consumption by the bacterium culture was modeled using Monod and Contois kinetics in batch condition. PNP degr...
متن کاملLiving Near de Sitter Bubble Walls
We study various bubble solutions in string/M theories obtained by double Wick rotations of (non-)extremal brane configurations. Typically, the geometry interpolates de Sitter space-time × non-compact extra-dimensional space in the near-bubble wall region and the asymptotic flat Minkowski space-time. These bubble solutions provide nice background geometries reconciling string/M theories with de...
متن کاملBubble bubble, abdominal trouble: a new test to chew on.
A ppendicitis, acute pancreatitis, diverticulitus: all possible serious diagnoses in patients presenting to the emergency department with abdominal pain. The diagnosis of these and other generalized or localized irritations of the peritoneum is sometimes based on the physician's " gut feelings " but are more commonly the result of diagnostic tests. A number of such tests have been proposed to e...
