A new determination of the homogeneous nucleation rate of water in helium

Author

Edward Francis Allard

Abstract

"The object of this investigation is to apply the best known cloud chamber techniques to the study of condensation phenomena, directed mainly toward the development of a precise method for the determination of homogeneous nucleation rates. A secondary object is to investigate the properties of re-evaporation nuclei so that adequate precautions may be taken to eliminate their detrimental effect in the homogeneous nucleation experiments"--Statement of Problem, page 10.
