Description:
Author(s): Jürg Diemand, Raymond Angélil, Kyoko K. Tanaka, and Hidekazu Tanaka This work presents extensive microcanonical molecular dynamics simulations of a Lennard-Jones liquid to directly measure the rate of bubble nucleation. Nucleation rates are found that are in reasonable agreement with classical nucleation theory, and local hot spots, which were reported in earlier simulations, are not observed. [Phys. Rev.
