sublimation

Readers will understandably recoil at the musician’s callousness, especially given Mintz’s sublimation of himself in the service of Lennon and Ono.

Once the sample has been fully solidified, the solid solvent is removed by sublimation during lyophilization.

"We call that 'sublimation'. The process is extremely explosive due to Mars' low air pressure. The created gas pressure pushes sediment grains apart causing the material to flow, similar to debris flows in mountainous areas on Earth. These flows can reshape the Martian landscape -- even in the absence of water."

Sublimation is to change directly from a solid to a gas without becoming a liquid.

As several COMs, including those detected in the solid phase in this research, were previously detected in the warm gas phase, it is now believed that they originate from the sublimation of ices.
