Coalescence in an insular film in the presence of sources I. Decaying sources

  • Published:
Soviet Physics Journal Aims and scope

Abstract

The effects of decaying sources have been examined with regard to the time dependence of the critical and mean dimensions of islands of spherical-segment or cylindrical forms for various modes of diffusion transport; the same has been done for the number per unit area and the supersaturation. The size distribution of the islands has also been determined.
