Condensation may refer to: * Condensation, the change in matter of a substance to a denser phase * DNA condensation, the process of compacting DNA molecules * Cloud condensation nuclei, airborne particles required for cloud formation * Condensation (aerosol dynamics), a phase transition from gas to liquid *

Condensation cloud A transient condensation cloud, also called a Wilson cloud, is observable surrounding large explosions in humid air. When a nuclear weapon or a large amount of a conventional explosive is detonated in sufficiently humid air, the "negative phas ...

Condensation reaction In organic chemistry, a condensation reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which two molecules are combined to form a single molecule, usually with the loss of a small molecule such as water. If water is lost, the reaction is also known as a ...

Condensation (graph theory) In the mathematical theory of directed graphs, a graph is said to be strongly connected if every vertex is reachable from every other vertex. The strongly connected components of an arbitrary directed graph form a partition into subgraphs that ...
