In weak first-order phase transitions, subcritical bubbles reach percent-level volume fractions before critical nucleation when phases are nearly degenerate at Tn, invalidating the homogeneous-background assumption for points satisfying log10 f̂_ξ(Tn) ≃ -1.95.

Subcritical bubble prehistory in weak first-order phase transition
In weak first-order phase transitions, subcritical bubbles reach percent-level volume fractions before critical nucleation when phases are nearly degenerate at Tn, invalidating the homogeneous-background assumption for points satisfying log10 f̂_ξ(Tn) ≃ -1.95.
