Critical Point
The temperature and pressure at which vapor and liquid phases of a material have the same density.

CRITICAL POINT - Point along a phase boundary on a phase diagram where the liquid and gas states cease to be distinct. For example, the critical point of water is 647 K (374 °C or 705 °F) and 22.064 MPa (218 atm).
Critical Point
a point in a phase diagram identifying conditions in which the correlation length associated with some appropriate set of microscopic variables is, in principle, as large as the physical system.
Critical Speed ...
This is the critical point of the Twin Paradox. Alice is taking a trip through a Universe that appears length-contracted to her, and so a trip at half the speed of light takes a shorter time.
The pressure of a gas at critical point, which is the highest pressure under which a liquid can exist in equilibrium with its vapor.
above the boiling point of carbon, and a little way within the body it may probably exceed the critical point at which increase of pressure can produce the liquid state in any substance.
The more gas they held onto, the larger they became; the larger they became, the more gas they held onto until a critical point was reached, and their size began to increase exponentially.
According to previous work by Hermann Bondi and Raymond Lyttleton, black holes have a critical point in their vicinity, known as the ‘Bondi Radius', within which gas will be predominantly affected by the black hole's gravity.
That is because at this layer, hydrogen reaches what is known as its "critical point," at which time the hydrogen gas is the same density as liquid hydrogen, and the two are indistinguishable.
In statistics, to denote critical points. z* and t* are given critical points for z-distributions and t-distributions, respectively.
This is a way of classifying the behavior of systems near the critical points of continuous phase transitions.
Formal reviews are typically used as control gates at critical points in the full system life cycle to determine whether the system development process should continue from one phase to the next, or what modifications may be required.

If enough material is is hoovered up from the surrounding gas and dust, the protostar will hit a critical point in its life.
Eventually, as the Sun burns helium to form heavier elements, it will reach a critical point where fusion cannot release enough energy to form new elements, so fusion will end.
line, while the substance must be liquid on the high-pressure, low-temperature side; liquid and vapor exist together at temperatures and pressures corresponding to points on the line; at the place where this line vanishes, called the critical point, ...
