26. A relatively lower catastrophic limit for homogeneous nucleation than that predicted in Ref. [11] was reported (see Iwamatsu, M.: J. Phys.: Condens. Matter (1999) L1), but this is possibly due to the neglecting of density and thermal expansion changes between solid and liquid phases in their density functional theory (personal communication).
