title: Light-induced evaporation and condensation growth of aerosol particles.
abstract: The nonisothermal evaporation and condensation of a particle suspended in a vapor-gas mixture under the effect of resonant optical radiation is studied. A traveling light wave is absorbed by the aerosol particle and velocity selectively by vapor molecules. The dependence of the evaporation or condensation rate on optical and thermophysical properties of the particle and gaseous molecules is studied. The free-molecule regime is examined.
