superheating in solid phase
21Fermionic condensate — A fermionic condensate is a superfluid phase formed by fermionic particles at low temperatures. It is closely related to the Bose–Einstein condensate, a superfluid phase formed by bosonic atoms under similar conditions. Unlike the Bose–Einstein… …
22locomotive — locomotively, adv. locomotiveness, locomotivity, n. /loh keuh moh tiv/, n. 1. a self propelled, vehicular engine, powered by steam, a diesel, or electricity, for pulling or, sometimes, pushing a train or individual railroad cars. 2. an organized… …
23Quark–gluon plasma — A QGP is formed at the collision point of two relativistically accelerated gold ions in the center of the STAR detector at the relativistic heavy ion collider at the Brookhaven national laboratory. A quark–gluon plasma …
24Compressed fluid — A P v diagram for liquid water. The compressed fluid region is located to the left of the blue line (the liquid vapor phase boundary). A compressed fluid (also called a subcooled fluid or subcooled liquid) is a fluid under thermodynamic… …
25Critical line (thermodynamics) — In thermodynamics, a critical line is the higher dimensional equivalent of a critical point [1]. It is the locus of contiguous critical points in a phase diagram. These lines cannot occur for a single substance due to the phase rule, but they can …
26Binodal — A phase diagram displaying binodal curves. In thermodynamics, the binodal, also known as the coexistence curve or binodal curve, denotes the condition at which two distinct phases may coexist. Equivalently, it is the boundary between the set of… …
27Supersaturation — Enormous, highly pure, single crystal substances can be grown from a solution at the metastable boundary between an unsaturated and supersaturated solution. Here, a monopotassium phosphate crystal grown to create frequency doubling optics for the …
28Microwave effect — The phrase microwave effect is a term that is applied to a range of observations in microwave chemistry. There are two general classes of microwave effects: Specific microwave effects. Non thermal microwave effects. A recent review has proposed… …
