Bubble Nucleation in carbon dioxide

This video shows the nucleation and growth of bubbles in liquid carbon dioxide close to the spinodal. Here the liquid is under stretch and cannot maintain its state. Bubbles are shown by their iso surfaces at a density between liquid and gas. Molecules are not shown.

Vapor liquid interface of a mixture of carbon dioxide and water at T = 300 K

Shown is the vapor-liquid interface of a mixture of carbon dioxide and water at T = 300 K in equilibrium. Carbon dioxide accumulates at the interface.
