0 gas or extremely small drops of liquid that result from the heating of a liquid or solid:
1 a condition in which someone suddenly feels sick and weak, usually because of a shock
2 a gas that escapes from a liquid or solid, esp. as a result of heating:
In this derivation the parameters were adjusted to produce accurate room-temperature enthalpies of vaporization and vapor pressures or densities of a set of solvated alkanes.
Here, a high temperature, solid density vapor column is assumed, and the other region is filled with water.
The latter change leads also to the change of the laser-target interaction mode and to the conditions for the optical breakdown of laser produced vapors.
The experimental characterization of vapors and carbonaceous materials produced is presented and compared to the theoretical predictions.
The vapors produced are subsequently ionized and heated via inverse bremsstrahlung, reaching a plasma temperature much higher than that of the target.
The part that decomposes into air is a vapor or fume, but not air that is fit for breathing.
An open subsurface hydrothemal system will be easier to detect, mostly by vapor escape, but will lose molecules irreversibly to the polar cold trap.
The vapor plume is assumed to be transparent for laser radiation, and its expansion is described by the isoentropic hydrodynamic equations.
