Influence of the dividing surface notion on the formulation of Tolman’s law

The influence of the surface curvature 1/R on the surface tension γ of small droplets at equilibrium with a surrounding vapour, or small bubbles at equilibrium with a surrounding liquid, can be expanded as γ(R) = γ0 –2δ0/R + O(1/R2), where R = RL is the Laplace radius and γ0 is the surface tension o...
