Freezing from static systems

If mechanisms existed in our electronic notebook space to freeze dynamic objects into static ones when appropriate, and to archive ephemeral objects before they were demounted from the system, then a growing electronic library that maintains linkage continuity would be created. 

Fig. 24. Longitudinal field spectra for a Gaussian (left) and a Lorentzian (right) field distribution. The Gaussian case refers to spin freezing around 8.5 K in CePtSn, a concentrated spin system (Kalvius et al. 1995a) the Lorentzian case to a dilute Cu(Mn) spin glass below its glass transition temperature of 10.8K. The values of the longitudinal fields are (from top to bottom) 640, 320, 160, 80, 40 and OG (Uemuia et al. 1981). In both cases the set of spectra unambiguously proves that the spin systems are static.

For the boron-nitrogen system, because the high gas pressure is required for the synthesis, it is difficult to apply any dynamic method for investigation of the microstructural transformations, which occur in the combustion front. Thus, the static quenching technique was used [26, 23, 27]. The idea of this method is to extinguish the combustion wave and quickly cool the sample it is necessary to freeze all zones with the characteristic microstructure, chemical and phase structure of the reactants, intermediates, and final products. For quenching to take place, the heat loss from the reaction front at some point must exceed the critical...
