Mesoscopic nonequilibrium kinetics of nucleation processes [Elektronische Daten] [David Reguera] This article reviews our recent efforts to provide a rigorous description of the kinetics of nucleation processes from a mesoscopic and nonequilibrium perspective. Its usefulness to analyze different important aspects of the process, such as the validity of the Nucleation Theorem, the proper incorporation of translational and rotational degrees of freedom, and the influence of inhomogeneities and gradients in the process, is discussed. The theory sketched here provides a unified framework in which nucleation can be realistically described. © Walter de Gruyter Thermodynamics & statistical physics nationallicence Heat transfer processes nationallicence Journal of Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics Walter de Gruyter 29/4(2004-12-01), 327-344 0340-0204 29:4<327 2004 29 jnet https://doi.org/10.1515/JNETDY.2004.059 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 research article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1515/JNETDY.2004.059 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 100 1- Reguera David 1.
