Incongruent transition , in chemistry , is a mass transition between two Phase matter phases which involves a change in composition. This is contrasted with congruent transition , for which the composition remains the same. The transition may be that of melting , vaporization or Allotropy allotropism .

The term phase decomposition is sometimes used to describe incongruent transition. However, it has to be kept in mind that incongruent transition is described by an Chemical equilibrium equilibrium .

unreferenced date December 2009 Transition management is a service usually offered by sell side institutions to help buy side firms transition a portfolio of Security finance securities . Various events including Mergers and acquisitions acquisitions and management changes can cause the need for a portfolio to be transitioned. A typical example would be a mutual fund has decided to merge two funds into one larger fund. In doing this, large quantities of securities will need to be bought and sold. Another frequent occurrence is a firm wanting to liquidate a large portfolio. The process of doing this can be very expensive. The costs include commissions, market impact , bid offer spread s, and opportunity costs. A firm seeking to transition a portfolio will often look for an outside firm to perform the transition. Transition managers are generally able to transition the portfolio at a lower cost than what a firm could do internally. Companies offering transition management can also add value by helping plan the transition, managing risk during the transition, and generating reports after the transition. Such companies are often referred to as Transition companies . Transition managers have a number of methods to help transition a portfolio. Usually they are directly connected to multiple markets or liquidity centers. They can execute orders using algorithmic trading , and thereby minimize market impact. Since they may be transitioning several different portfolios they can cross orders, reducing commission and exchange fees. Additionally, they may have specialist traders who handle illiquid securities. A fiduciary friendly recent trend has been to remove all conflicts of interest associated with transition management by unbundling advice from execution through the use of a transition or brokerage consultant. In this way, the adviser s sole possible interest is improving performance and lowering execution costs, rather than having a trader and adviser under the same roof ... more details
A vibronic transition denotes the simultaneous change of vibrational and electronic quantum number in a molecule . According to the separability of electronic and nuclear motion in the Born Oppenheimer approximation , the vibrational transition and electronic transition may be described separately. The selection rule for electronic transitions is given by Koopmans theorem , while that for vibrational transitions is described by the Franck Condon principle . Most processes leading to the absorption and emission of visible light , are due to vibronic transitions. This may be contrasted to pure electronic transitions which occur in atom s and lead to sharp monochromatic lines e.g. in a sodium vapor lamp or pure vibrational transitions which only absorb or emit infrared light .

Unreferenced date December 2009 The transition band is a range of frequency frequencies , that allows a transition between a passband and a stopband of a filter signal processing signal processing filter . The transition band is defined by a passband and a stopband cutoff frequency or corner frequency. This is the area between where a filter turns the corner and where it hits the bottom . An example of this can be taken from a low pass filter , commonly used in audio systems to allow the bass signal to pass through to a subwoofer , and cut out all unwanted frequencies above a defined point. If the cutoff point for such a filter is defined as 200 Hz, then in a perfect system, all frequencies above 200 Hz will be stopped and all frequencies below 200 Hz will be allowed to pass through. The transition band can be implemented to allow for a smooth fall off to avoid problems with the way the audio sounds. If the transition band of the example 200Hz filter is 20 Hz, then the signal should start attenuating at 180 Hz, and finally blocked at 200 Hz. The curve that the transition band follows depends on the engineering of the filter, including component reaction time and the choice of values for the components that comprise the filter. The transition band is usually apparent in any filter system, even if it is unwanted. This can be of general importance when calculating the values required for filters used in the control of signal transmission systems, to ensure that the entire bandwidth of the desired signal is allowed to pass.
