Abstract
Fluid interfaces with nanoscale radii of curvature are generating great interest, both for their applications and as tools to probe our fundamental understanding. One important question is what is the smallest radius of curvature at which the three main thermodynamic combined equilibrium equations are valid: the Kelvin equation for the effect of curvature on vapor pressure, the Gibbs-Thomson equation for the curvature-induced freezing point depression, and the Ostwald-Freundlich equation for the curvature-induced increase in solubility. The objective of this Perspective is to provide conceptual, molecular modeling, and experimental support for the validity of these thermodynamic combined equilibrium equations down to the smallest interfacial radii of curvature. Important concepts underpinning thermodynamics, including ensemble averaging and Gibbs's treatment of bulk phase heterogeneities in the region of an interface, give reason to believe that these equations might be valid to smaller scales than was previously thought. There is significant molecular modeling and experimental support for all three of the Kelvin equation, the Gibbs-Thomson equation, and the Ostwald-Freundlich equation for interfacial radii of curvature from 1 to 4 nm. There is even evidence of sub-nanometer quantitative accuracy for the Kelvin equation and the Gibbs-Thomson equation.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
