>subcooled/compressed liquid
just think of regular ass liquid
>saturated
this is when the fluid is the middle of a phase change/on the verge of a phase change. saturated water at 1 atm will always be about 212 F (regardless of phase!). saturated water is what you cook pasta in. saturated water can be a solid or a liquid or a gas or in between.
>super heated
think hot, fully vaporized gas. it can get hotter than boiling.
>critical
Phase of a substance is determined by which saturation lines on the PT curve it falls between. At a definite high T and P, the line become very ambiguous and so any distinction between phase falls apart in the supercritical region.
>water coming from a hydrothermal vent at the bottom of the ocean
>really hot and wants to boil
>extreme pressure so its getting squeezed too hard to boil

[math] \beta(s)^{-1}\ [/math] or [math] \ -10\text{dB}\cdot\log\big(\beta(s)\big) [/math] i think
>>11572281
The second line bad and totally misleading notation. First and last are okay. Just write [math] f'(x_0) [/math]
