Although today's literature on nucleation rate measurements is extensive, the available
amount of high pressure data is quite surveyable. Yet, high pressure measurements can
reveal important information, mainly in two respects. First of all, there are many practical
circumstances where nucleation takes place in the presence of a high pressure carrier gas.
Chemical plants and natural gas transport lines are among the most important examples
where high pressure nucleation may take place. Second, nucleation experimentalists have …
