      In the paper the authors present new approach to analyze statistically homogeneous and inifinite system of the classical Lifshitz, Slyozov and Wagner (LSW) model. In this case, the first order correction to the LSW theory is of order \(\phi^{1/2}\). It is proposed that a new method for identifying conditional expectations of particle growth rates up to the order \(\phi^{1/2}\). The main point is that to relate the full particle system to the system with a finite number of particles removed. This method decouples screening and correlation effects and allows to efficiently evaluate conditional expected values of the particle growth rates.
