Crystallization may be considered to consist of two steps: nucleus formation and crystal growth. If the solution is free of any solid particles nucleus formation must occur before crystal growth can begin. 2, record 1, English, - nucleation

It is suggested that the above terms be used not only in a mathematical but also in a physical meaning: curdling to denote any cascade of instabilities resulting in contraction, and curd to denote a volume within which a physical characteristic becomes increasingly concentrated as a result of curdling. 5, record 2, English, - nucleation
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 2 CONT
The process of curdling is an important question for the science of fractals: a field equation which displays nucleation (curdling) of particles out of a pure radiation field is discussed. The particle formation arises naturally from the nonlinear character of the equation rather than from the imposed quantization conditions. 6, record 2, English, - nucleation

A partir d'une solution (ou d'une bile) sursaturée en cholestérol, celui-ci peut précipiter de deux façons. S'il existe dans le milieu des particules, celles-ci peuvent servir de noyau autour duquel précipitent et s'agglomèrent les cristaux de cholestérol: ce processus est appelé nucléation hétérogène (...) S'il n'y a pas de particules pouvant servir de noyau, les cristaux de cholestérol peuvent s'agglomérer entre eux: ce processus est appelé nucléation homogène. 1, record 5, French, - nucl%C3%A9ation
