==See also== | The '''line tension''' (<math>\tau</math>) is attributed to the ''contact line'' <math>{\mathcal L}_{\alpha \beta \gamma}</math> along which three interfaces for the three thermodynamic phases, <math>\alpha</math>, <math>\beta</math> and <math>\gamma</math> meet. It is defined as the line contribution to the [[Grand canonical ensemble | grand potential]] per unit length of the contact line. | ||
