text: The Gibbs–Thomson equation may be written in a compact form:
  where the Gibbs–Thomson coefficient  assumes different values for different liquids and different interfacial geometries (spherical/cylindrical/planar).
  In more detail:,
  where:
  *  is a geometric constant dependent on the interfacial shape,
  *  is a constant involving parameters specific to the crystalline solid of solid–liquid system, and
  *  is an interfacial energy term.
