Stochastic effects in the growth of droplets
Abstract
Description
The effects of stochastic absorption and ejection of molecules by growing droplets have been considered. Both analytical and numerical approaches have been used. They demonstrate the satisfactory coincidence. It is proved that in general case corresponding to the asymptotic at big numbers of molecules in the critical embryo the effects of stochastic growth are small in comparison with the effects of stochastic appearance of droplets.
