How to quantify and avoid finite size effects in computational studies of crystal nucleation: The case of heterogeneous ice nucleation
Computational studies of crystal nucleation can be impacted by finite size effects, primarily due to unphysical interactions between crystalline nuclei and their periodic images. It is, however, not always feasible to systematically investigate the sensitivity of nucleation kinetics and mechanism to system size due to large computational costs of nucleation …
