Molecular model for ice clusters in a supersaturated vapor
1974
Journal of Chemical Physics
Preserved Fulltext
A molecular model previously applied to prenucleation water clusters is used to examine ice I h embryos. The canonical partition function is evaluated for clusters having from 6 to 64 water molecules. The intermolecular vibrational free energies are extrapolated to clusters containing up to 120 molecules and free energies of formation, nucleation rates, and critical supersaturation ratios are calculated and compared with experiment. For the clusters studied, the ice I h structure appears to be
