Lifshitz-Slezov-Wagner LSW Theory

Another consequence of LSW theory is the prediction that the size distribution function g( ) for the normalized droplet radius u = r/rc adopts a time-independent form given by  

It follows then that the temporal changes in the munber of particles per unit volume will be second order with respect to droplet concentration, viz
