Observations of polar mesospheric clouds have revealed the presence of solid ice particles in the
upper mesosphere at high latitudes; however, their formation mechanism remains uncertain. In this study, we
investigated the formation process of ice particles through nucleation from small amounts of water vapor at low
temperatures. Previous studies that used classical nucleation theory have shown ...
