	Critical temperature - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The critical pressure is the vapor pressure at the critical temperature.
		The critical molar volume is the volume of one mole of material at the critical temperature and pressure.
		Critical properties vary from material to material, just as is the case for the melting point and boiling point.

	A Physicalist Theory of Qualia
		Property P is a critical property of u just in case there is a v such that a difference between u and v in P is alone sufficient to assure the discriminability of the stimuli u and v encode.
		Second, identity of critical properties of encodings parallels Goodman's definition of identity of qualia: not merely that the two stimuli are indiscriminable, but rather that they both match (are indiscriminable with) the same sets of stimuli.
		Qualia are properties of Sellarsian 'sensa' or 'impressions' in that they are properties of internal states involved in perception, which help to explain 'looks', and which have similarities and differences that are structurally similar to similarities and differences among colored things.

		CRITICAL PHENOMENA AND PHASE TRANSITIONS 79 ena occurred in the mid-1960s, with the development of a set of empirical scaling laws, which were successful in describing certain relations between different critical properties of a system, although they could not predict all these properties from the beginning.
		CRITICAL PHENOMENA AND PHASE TRANSITIONS 83 A property of great interest near the critical point is the statistical correlation for fluctuations in the order-parameter density, at two nearby points in space, as a function of the distance between the points.
		The critical behavior of the XY model is particularly interesting because this model is predicted to fall in the same universality class as the superfluid transition of liquid helium (4He).

	851 - Critical Properties of Pure Compounds - DIPPR - AIChE
		Critical properties are exceedingly important; they are used to estimate such properties as departure functions, liquid density, viscosity, heat capacity, heat of vaporization, thermal conductivity, diffusion coefficients, and surface tension.
		Critical properties are also essential for correlation of vapor pressure and liquid density over the entire saturated liquid range.
		Thus, to measure critical properties of an unstable compound, a small sample in a rapid heating device, with fast temperature and pressure sensors, is needed.

	Encyclopedia: Carbon dioxide (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-20)
		Temperature is the physical property of a system which underlies the common notions of hot and cold; the material with the higher temperature is said to be hotter.
		Carbon dioxide's properties were studied more thoroughly in the 1750s by the Scottish physician Joseph Black.
		He found that limestone (calcium carbonate) could be heated or treated with acids to yield a gas he termed "fixed air." He observed that the fixed air was denser than air and did not support either flame or animal life.

	Properties of Liquids (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-20)
		The existence of a critical temperature was discovered by Thomas Andrews in 1869 while studying the effect of temperature and pressure on the behavior of carbon dioxide.
		Gases can't be liquified at temperatures above the critical temperature because at this point the properties of gases and liquids become the same, and there is no basis on which to distinguish between gases and liquids.
		These properties are related because they are both indirect measures of the force of attraction between particles in the gas phase.

		Sengers gives an excellent review of the critical properties of fluids and fluid mixtures that provides much further information about mean-field and non-mean-field critical properties and the "crossover" between these property scaling regimes [42].

	Articles - Phase transition (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-20)
		Near the critical point, the fluid is sufficiently hot and compressed that the distinction between the liquid and gaseous phases is almost non-existent.
		This is associated with the phenomenon of critical opalescence, a milky appearance of the liquid, due to density fluctuations at all possible wavelengths (including those of visible light).
		Universality is a prediction of the renormalization group theory of phase transitions, which states that the thermodynamic properties of a system near a phase transition depend only on a small number of features, such as dimensionality and symmetry, and is insensitive to the underlying microscopic properties of the system.

	Critical Viscosity of Xenon (CVX)
		Although the critical temperature and viscosity can differ greatly among fluids, there is a remarkable regularity: within experimental error the relative size of the viscosity increase is the same for all pure fluids.
		Near the critical temperature, the xenon will be a billion times more compressible than water, but it will have about the same density as water and its color will change from clear to milky white.

		Critical properties high assurance systems must satisfy including service properties, i.e., properties of the services that the system delivers.
		Additionally, the user can define properties believed to be true of the required behavior and, using simulation, execute a series of scenarios to determine if any violate the properties.
		Especially noteworthy is that, in each project, translating the original specification into the SCR notation, using SCR to analyze the specification for critical properties, and building a simulation (i.e., a working prototype of the system) required slightly more than one person-month.

	Critical System Properties: Survey and Taxonomy
		There is a surprising diversity of opinion concerning the properties that such ``critical systems'' should possess, and the best methods to develop them.
		In this report, I examine the critical properties considered in each approach, and the techniques that have been developed to specify them and to ensure their satisfaction.
		Since systems are now being constructed that must satisfy several of these critical system properties simultaneously, there is particular interest in the extent to which techniques from one tradition support or conflict with those of another, and in whether certain critical system properties are fundamentally compatible or incompatible with each other.

		(26) and measurement is illustrative of the large property changes that critical fluctuations can induce.
		Moreover, the critical temperature, in three dimensions, can be shifted from its mean-field value by as much as 25% by fluctuations, so that the interaction parameters must be treated as phenomenological parameters in comparison to experiments in order to "absorb" these discrepancies [34].
		We plan to discuss the properties of the LB model with a molecular volume asymmetry further in a separate publication so that this case is not discussed here.

	Welding-properties and experience: learning from failures to reach success.
		It was found that it was not welding as such to blame: rather it was an unknown before characteristic of certain steels to become brittle at low temperatures, together with a design that did not anticipate the need to include "crack arrestors" to avoid the catastrophic instant spread of cracks through the whole structure.
		Further studies clarified the fateful influence of internal constraints and of stress raisers, that is of geometric discontinuities where locally the stress reaches much higher levels than in the surroundings, that sudden load by impact is dangerous, that low temperature can be fatal.
		This means in general that even a material known to present adequate corrosion resistance in a certain corrosive environment, may loose some or all of its properties if welded with procedures that do not take into account the influence of welding on corrosion resistance.

	Reconfiguration Assurance in Embedded System Software
		In many software systems, critical properties are only a small subset of all desirable system properties.
		Assuring properties over the simpler subset can provide assurance of critical properties over the entire system.
		The approach accomplishes this by: (1) introducing a formal definition of reconfiguration and an associated set of high-level, general properties; (2) constructing an architecture that guarantees the high-level reconfiguration properties; and (3) making non-crucial software function fail-stop, so that the software either works correctly or fails in a way that does not disrupt other applications.
