Abstract
We obtain exact expressions for the (Daynes) time lags L for the Becker–Döring and the Zeldovich modified Becker–Döring theory of nucleation. Our exact mathematical expressions for L are obtained without solving for the transient concentration of embryos of the new phase. L depends on the initial distribution of embryos. We find from numerical evaluation of L for two reasonable initial distributions, for at least vapor–liquid transitions, that these initial distributions did not produce the previously found effect on the magnitude of L.
