Demonstration of the effect of stirring on nucleation from experiments on the International Space Station using the ISS-EML facility

Abstract The effect of fluid flow on crystal nucleation in supercooled liquids is not well understood. The variable density and temperature gradients in the liquid make it difficult to study this under terrestrial gravity conditions. Nucleation experiments were therefore made in a microgravity envir...
