Strong supercooling or intentional addition of crystallization seeds results in relatively large number of nucleation sites; then spherulites are numerous and small and interact with each other upon growth.

After realizing that in the first experiment the course of Agatha was altered by the supercooling of the areas of the storm, the team decides to apply the same method.
43.
This can be created in a laboratory by supercooling atoms to expand their wavelengths, enabling the atoms to superimpose their wave-functions to create one very dense form of atom.
44.
This " glaciohydraulic supercooling " process forms an open network of platy ice crystals that can effectively trap silt from the sediment-laden water that flows beneath glaciers and ice sheets.
45.
"' Cryotrapping "'can also refer to a somewhat different effect, where molecules will increase their residence time on a cold surface without actually freezing ( supercooling ).
46.
With some of the salt solutions, depending on chemical composition, then the supercooling produces a glassy state instead of crystallization, and this could help to protect supercooled microbes from damage.
47.
Within the apoplast, antifreeze proteins localize the growth of ice crystals by ice nucleators in order to prevent physical damage to tissues and to promote supercooling within freezing-sensitive tissues and cells.
48.
Livers that were later transplanted into recipient animals were preserved by supercooling for up to 96 hours ( 4 days ), quadrupling the limits of what could be achieved by conventional liver preservation methods.
49.
But liquids that behave in this way on cooling are the exception rather than the rule; in spite of the second principle of thermodynamics, crystallization usually occurs at lower temperatures ( supercooling ).
50.
For perceptible growth rates, this mechanism requires a finite driving force ( or degree of supercooling ) in order to lower the nucleation barrier sufficiently for nucleation to occur by means of thermal fluctuations.
