phase transition
This term is primarily a technical expression used in thermodynamics and condensed matter physics. It describes a discrete change in the physical properties of a substance, such as melting or evaporation, where the system moves from one state of equilibrium to another. The connotation is one of abruptness and criticality, often associated with a specific threshold temperature or pressure.
Beyond the hard sciences, the term is frequently borrowed by sociologists and economists as a metaphor for systemic shifts. In these contexts, it describes a rapid, non-linear change in social behavior or market dynamics, suggesting that a small change in a parameter can trigger a total transformation of the system's state.
Meanings
The process by which a thermodynamic system changes from one state of matter to another, such as the transition from a liquid to a gas.
Examples
Water freezing into ice is a common phase transition.
The substance underwent a rapid phase transition when the pressure increased.
Look at how the liquid crystal changes color during the phase transition.
I wonder if the early universe experienced a similar phase transition.
The material exhibits a second order phase transition at low temperatures.
We are seeing a phase transition in consumer behavior toward sustainable products.
We are seeing a phase transition in consumer behavior toward sustainable sustainable products.
The sudden phase transition caused the entire structure to collapse.
Is this a first order phase transition or something more complex?
