Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Thermodynamics
  • Ion

Howard Reiss spends much of his time researching Thermodynamics, Nucleation, Statistical physics, Chemical physics and Supersaturation. Thermodynamics and Molecular orbital theory are two areas of study in which Howard Reiss engages in interdisciplinary research. The Nucleation study combines topics in areas such as Monte Carlo method, Series, Argon and Cluster.

His Statistical physics research integrates issues from Correlation function, Particle, Hard spheres and Porous medium. His Chemical physics study combines topics in areas such as Number density, Nanotechnology, Polyelectrolyte and Diffusion. As a member of one scientific family, Howard Reiss mostly works in the field of Supersaturation, focusing on Water vapor and, on occasion, Cloud chamber, Layer and Glass wool.

His most cited work include:

  • Statistical Mechanics of Rigid Spheres (1088 citations)
  • The Kinetics of Phase Transitions in Binary Systems (422 citations)
  • The Growth of Uniform Colloidal Dispersions (248 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Howard Reiss focuses on Nucleation, Thermodynamics, Statistical physics, Cluster and Chemical physics. His study on Classical nucleation theory is often connected to Molecular orbital theory as part of broader study in Nucleation. His Thermodynamics study incorporates themes from Molecule and Kinetics.

His Statistical mechanics study, which is part of a larger body of work in Statistical physics, is frequently linked to Computer science, bridging the gap between disciplines. In his research, Virial coefficient and Equation of state is intimately related to Classical mechanics, which falls under the overarching field of Statistical mechanics. His research on Chemical physics also deals with topics like

  • Supercooling that intertwine with fields like Crystallization and Ice nucleus,
  • Surface and Surface tension most often made with reference to Adsorption.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Nucleation (40.20%)
  • Thermodynamics (38.24%)
  • Statistical physics (31.37%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1999-2016)?

  • Nucleation (40.20%)
  • Statistical physics (31.37%)
  • Thermodynamics (38.24%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His main research concerns Nucleation, Statistical physics, Thermodynamics, Cluster and Chemical physics. His Nucleation research includes themes of Crystallization, Liquid drop, Work and Classical mechanics. His Classical mechanics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Statistical mechanics and Degrees of freedom.

His Statistical physics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Liquid theory, Theoretical physics, Compressibility, Generalization and Monte Carlo method. Howard Reiss has included themes like Particle and Spinodal decomposition in his Thermodynamics study. His Chemical physics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Nanotechnology, Supercooling, Ice nucleus, Voltage and Conductance.

Between 1999 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • Modeling the Buildup of Polyelectrolyte Multilayer Films Having Exponential Growth (205 citations)
  • Surface crystallization of supercooled water in clouds (176 citations)
  • Phase transitions in systems small enough to be clusters (98 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Thermodynamics
  • Ion

Statistical physics, Chemical physics, Nucleation, Thermodynamics and Nanotechnology are his primary areas of study. The various areas that Howard Reiss examines in his Statistical physics study include Phase transition, Monte Carlo method, Spinodal decomposition and Cluster. His Chemical physics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Supercooling and Ice crystals.

Howard Reiss combines subjects such as Curvature and Surface tension, Gibbs isotherm, Adsorption with his study of Nucleation. His work carried out in the field of Thermodynamics brings together such families of science as Particle and Spinodal. His Nanotechnology research incorporates elements of Charge, Exponential growth, Polyelectrolyte, Crystal and Diffusion.
