It is shown that data on self-diffusion in some simple van der Waals liquids and liquid metals
are described satisfactorily by our relation with v* near the molecular volume for the van der …

Generally substances are more stable in a crystalline than in a glassy state. Therefore, to
form a glass, crystallization must be bypassed. Under certain conditions, the melts of many …

Free volume vf is defined as that part of the thermal expansion, or excess volume Δ v̄
which can be redistributed without energy change. Assuming a Lennard‐Jones potential …

The solidification rate of supercooled liquid mercury droplets is strongly dependent upon the
nature of foreign substances on their surface or suspended in them. Droplets (2-8 microns …

In an eclectic and highly original study, Turnbull brings together traditions as diverse as
cathedral building, Micronesian navigation, cartography and turbulence research. He …

We have improved the free‐volume model for molecular transport in dense fluids, as
developed in earlier papers, by taking account of the variable magnitude of the diffusive …

MOST of the theories for the kinetics of nucleation that have been advanced apply to"
homogeneous nucleation" which is initiated in the interior of a single phase. The nucleation …

Schaefer (16) measured the catalytic activity of several natu-rally occurring inorganic
substances, and part of his data are given in Table I. Most of these substances are …

To explain the rapid diffusivity of copper in germanium and its dependence on structure, it is
proposed that the copper be dissolved in two states, interstitial and substitutional. It is …

Abstract" The map is not the territory" is a cartographic truism. It means that unless the map
is drawn on a mile-to-mile scale and has the same physical characteristics as the territory …
