In three dimensional scattering, the energy continuum wavefunction is obtained by utilizing two independent solutions of the reference wave equation. One of them is typically singular (usually, near the origin of configuration space). Both…
Colloidal systems offer the ideal conditions to study the nucleation process, both from an experimental viewpoint, due to their relative large size and long time-scales, and from a modeling point of view, due to the tunability of their…
