Introduction to the physics of nucleation
[Introduction à la physique de la nucléation]
Comptes Rendus. Physique, Volume 7 (2006) no. 9-10, pp. 946-958.

Dans cet article introductif, je passe en revue la théorie de la nucléation par activation thermique et par effet tunnel quantique. Je discute les effets de la nucléation hétérogène aux surfaces et je propose un bref survol des techniques expérimentales utilisées.

In this introductory article, I review the theory of nucleation by thermal activation and by quantum tunneling. The effect of heterogeneous nucleation at surfaces is discussed and a brief survey of experimental techniques is given.
