Refreeze experiments with water droplets containing different types of ice nuclei interpreted by classical nucleation theory
Homogeneous nucleation of ice in supercooled water droplets is a stochastic process. In its classical description, the growth of the ice phase requires the emergence of a critical embryo from random fluctuations of water molecules between the water bulk and ice-like clusters, which is associated wit...
