Rather than liquid water evaporating, sublimation freezes the moisture into a solid state before directly converting it to ...

At first, the researchers wondered if the snowpack was decreasing because the snow was simply turning into water vapor—a process called sublimation. But the team recently discovered that only 10 ...

The researchers describe how they initially thought that sublimation—the process by which snow or ice turns directly into water vapor—could explain the missing water. However, they discovered ...

Normally, we think of dye sublimation, we think of pressing color pictures onto fabric, especially T-shirts. But [Johan] uses a modified Epson inkjet printer and has amazing results, as you can ...

Gao Xiaoming from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences developed a near-infrared laser heterodyne radiometer (LHR), that could greatly improve water vapor ...

The method is performed on solids with vapor pressures below their melting points. The process offers minimal exposure to harmful gases and allows operation at low temperatures. Sublimation apparatus ...

Next to the pump there must be a water trap. This chilly compartment recondenses the water vapor, so it doesn’t get inside the pump or saturate the things you’re trying to dry. Lastly ...

The pressure exerted by a vapor in thermodynamic equilibrium with its solid or liquid phase. Relates to the propensity of particles to escape by evaporation (liquids) or sublimation (solids).
