      abstract = {This book introduces readers to experimental techniques of  general utility that can be used to practically and  reliably determine nucleation rates. It also covers the  basics of gas hydrates, phase equilibria, nucleation  theory, crystal growth, and interfacial gaseous states.  Given its scope, the book will be of interest to graduate  students and researchers in the field of hydrate  nucleation. The formation of gas hydrates is a first-order  phase transition that begins with nucleation. Understanding  nucleation is of interest to many working in the chemical  and petroleum industry, since nucleation, while beneficial  in many chemical processes, is also a concern in terms of  flow assurance for oil and natural gas pipelines. A primary  difficulty in the investigation of gas hydrate nucleation  has been researchers inability to determine and compare the  nucleation rates of gas hydrates across systems with  different scales and levels of complexity, which in turn  has limited their ability to study the nucleation process  itself. This book introduces readers to experimental  techniques that can be used to practically and reliably  determine the nucleation rates of gas hydrate systems. It  also covers the basics of gas hydrates, phase equilibria,  nucleation theory, crystal growth, and interfacial gaseous  states. Given its scope, the book will be of interest to  graduate students and researchers in the field of hydrate  nucleation.},
