TLDR
In this paper, an analysis is made of the process whereby diffusion effects can cause the precipitation of grains of a second phase in a supersaturated solid solution, and the kinetics of this type of grain growth are examined in detail.

Theory of phase-ordering kinetics

Alan J. Bray
- 01 May 1994 - 
TL;DR: The theory of phase-ordering dynamics that is the growth of order through domain coarsening when a system is quenched from the homogeneous phase into a broken-symmetry phase, with the emphasis on recent developments, is reviewed in this paper.

The growth of dispersed precipitates in solutions

G.W Greenwood
- 01 May 1956 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that when dispersed particles of a second phase exist in a saturated solution, there is a tendency for smaller particles to dissolve and larger ones to grow by the transfer of solute through the solvent from particle to particle.
