Turnbull and Cech [58] analyzed the solidification of small metal droplets in sizes ranging from 10 to 300 xm and concluded that in a wide selection of metals the minimum isothermal crystallization temperature was only a function of supercooling and not of droplet size. Later, it was found that the frequency of droplet nucleation was indeed a function of not only crystallization temperature but also of droplet size, since the probability of nucleation increases with the dimension of the droplet [76]. However, for low molecular weight substances the size dependence of the homogeneous nucleation temperature is very weak [77-80]. 

Although not capable of the micrometer-sized lateral resolutions available with the aforementioned techniques, the surface spectroscopy, electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA), also deserves mention. The ESCA experiment involves the use of X-rays rather than electrons to eject core electrons (photoelectrons), and it has comparable surface specificity and sensitivity to that of Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) (25, 26, 29). The principal advantage of ESCA relative to AES is that small... 

However, adsorption is a complex process that cannot be described by only one parameter. Thus we developed an isotherm for adsorption of ions that included most of the parameters already described (Section 6.8.13). It included heterogeneity of the surface, displacement of solvent molecules from the electrode, transfer of charge, deformation of the adsorbing ions, ion size, lateral interactions, etc. 

The second theory is called the tractive-force theory and utilizes the concept of current drag or Geschiebe required to move particles of a given size. Later we shall develop the underlying basis of tractive force, but for the moment we merely note that it is distinguishable from the velocity theory in that the movement of a particle by a stream varies as the depth and slope of the stream. 

To create a text box, press the Text Box toolbutton El. The mouse pointer will change to a crosshair. Position the crosshair pointer where you want to place the text box, and click and drag to outline it (the text box can be moved and sized later). An empty text box will be displayed with a blinking text cursor. Type the desired text within the box. 

We find that a finite roughness of the calcite surface must be included to achieve quantitative agreement between the calculated and experimental reflectivities. We use the model described in Equation (20) (Robinson 1986) that assumes that the roughness is the result of individual monatomic steps within the (approximately micrometer-sized) lateral coherence length of these measurements. We found a surface roughness of 1.1 A. Independent atomic force microscopy measurements have shown that the step density of these calcite cleavage surfaces is very small (Sturchio et al. 1997). 

In the Particles subsection of the Creator tab, the user defines particle radius, material, mass, volume, and moment of inertia (see Figure 7.16). It must be noted that particle size, which is defined here, is the average particle size. Later on, the user is able to provide a distribution for particle size. 

The macroscopic shear viscosity q of the polymer melt is therefore determined by the monomer chanistry and geometry, packing density, and molecular size. Later we will see that in melts xa and T = pN y/M, implying that...
