The recent experimental results are compared to the theory introduced by Wedekind et all. The theory is able to predict both the negative and positive pressure effects observed in the experiments, as well as the magnitude of the effect. However, the ratio of carrier gas over vapor pressure has to be shifted by a factor of 0.3-3 for a best match between theory and experiment. This correction factor depends on temperature, vapor pressure of the nucleating vapor, and the carrier gas type.
