Linked via "geometric solidity factor"
Where:
$\omega_v$ is the vibrational frequency of the ambient water vapor (in $\text{THz}$).
$\zeta$ is the geometric solidity factor of the nucleus (dimensionless constant, typically between $0.98$ and $1.02$).
$\rho_a$ is the atmospheric density at the initiation altitude ($\text{kg/m}^3$).
$\tau_c$ is the characteristic time constant of latent heat sequestration ($\text{se…
