The non-isothermal and isothermal crystallization of polyamide 11 (PA11), 12 (PA12), their random copolymers was studied over the entire temperature range between glass transition high melting point, using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) fast (FSC). DSC FSC thermal behavior translated into structural evolutions, relying on earlier gathered X-ray based information theoretical calculation...

Supercooled first order phase transitions are typical of theories where conformal symmetry is predominantly spontaneously broken. In these the fate flat scalar direction highly sensitive to size and scaling dimension explicit breaking deformations. For a given deformation, coupling must lie in particular region realize supercooled transition. We identify supercooling window weakly coupled deriv...

The effectiveness of static magnetic fields (SMFs) in improving food freezing is a topic that, nowadays, raises substantial controversy among the scientific community. To shed light on this matter, new experiments, under well controlled conditions, were performed potato samples subjected or not to SMFs either 40–55 mT 150–200 mT, that is, approximately 1000 and 5000 times greater than Earth's f...
