Studies on Magnetic-field induced first-order transitions [PDF]
, 2006 We shall discuss magnetization and transport measurements in materials exhibiting a broad first-order transition. The phase transitions would be caused by varying magnetic field as well as by varying temperature, and we concentrate on ferromagnetic to ...

Zeeman-limited Superconductivity in Crystalline Al Films [PDF]
, 2017 We report the evolution of the Zeeman-mediated superconducting phase diagram (PD) in ultra-thin crystalline Al films. Parallel critical field measurements, down to 50 mK, were made across the superconducting tricritical point of films ranging in ...

Supercooling of Water Controlled by Nanoparticles and Ultrasound
Nanoscale Research Letters, 2018 Nanoparticles, including Al2O3 and SiO2, and ultrasound were adopted to improve the solidification properties of water. The effects of nanoparticle concentration, contact angle, and ultrasonic intensity on the supercooling degree of water were ...

Storage Capacity in Dependency of Supercooling and Cycle Stability of Different PCM Emulsions
Applied Sciences, 2021 Phase-change materials (PCM) play off their advantages over conventional heat storage media when used within narrow temperature ranges. Many cooling and temperature buffering applications, such as cold storage and battery cooling, are operated within ...

Time Scales for Viscous Flow, Atomic Transport, and Crystallization in the Liquid and Supercooled Liquid States of Zr41.2Ti13.8Cu12.5Ni10.0Be22.5 [PDF]
, 1999 The shear viscosity of liquid Zr41.2Ti13.8Cu12.5Ni10.0Be22.5 has been measured. At the liquidus temperature we find an extremely high viscosity of 2.5 Pa s, favoring glass formation.

Thermal conductivity of supercooled water [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2013 The heat capacity of supercooled water, measured down to -37 °C, shows an anomalous increase as temperature decreases. The thermal diffusivity, i. e., the ratio of the thermal conductivity and the heat capacity per unit volume, shows a decrease. These anomalies may be associated with a hypothetical liquid-liquid critical point in supercooled water ...

Unfrozen state by the supercooling of chuño for traditional agriculture in altiplano andes
Environmental and Sustainability Indicators, 2020 The freezing point and supercooling process are discussed for their impact on the traditional Andean freeze-dried potatoes called chuño. The freezing point depends on potato species, but typically it is slightly below zero to −3 °C; supercooling always ...

Non-topological solitons as nucleation sites for cosmological phase transitions [PDF]
, 2000 I consider quantum field theories that admit charged non-topological solitons of the Q-ball type, and use the fact that in a first-order cosmological phase transition, below the critical temperature, there is a value of the soliton charge above which the

Inhomogeneous nucleation in quark hadron phase transition [PDF]
, 2000 The effect of subcritical hadron bubbles on a first-order quark-hadron phase transition is studied. These subcritical hadron bubbles are created due to thermal fluctuations, and can introduce a finite amount of phase mixing (quark phase mixed with hadron
