Filling a gap in the literature, this crucial publication on the
renowned Lifshitz-Slezov-Wagner Theory of first-order phase
transitions is authored by one of the scientists who gave it its
name. Prof Slezov spent decades analyzing this topic and obtained a
number of results that form the cornerstone of this rapidly
developing branch of science.
Following an analysis of unresolved problems together with proposed
solutions, the book develops a theoretical description of the
overall course of first-order phase transformations, starting from
the nucleation state right up to the late stages of coarsening. In
so doing, the author illustrates the results by way of numerical
computations and experimental applications. The outline of the
general results is performed for segregation processes in solutions
and the results used in the analysis of a variety of different
topics, such as phase formation in multi-component solutions,
boiling in one- and multi-component liquids, vacancy cluster
evolution in solids with and without influence of radiation, as
well as phase separation in helium at low temperatures.
The result is a detailed overview of the theoretical description of
the whole course of nucleation-growth processes and applications
for a wide audience of scientists and students.
