The observed ultralow temperature phenomenon appears contradictory to thermodynamic theory.
“As discussed by Léoni et al. [118], the observed phenomenon appears to be contradictory to thermodynamic theory.”

Snowflakes may fall to the ground before drifting onto the cold surface.
“Then, these snowflakes may fall down to the ground before drifting onto the cold surface.”

Under ordinary low temperature conditions (temperatures ranging from -16°C to -4°C), frost layer thickness always increases as surface temperature decreases.
“However, under ordinary low temperature conditions, namely from temperatures ranging from 16 ° C to 4 ° C, the frost layer thickness always increases as the surface temperature decreases, as shown in Fig. 16(c) [118].”

As cold surface temperature decreases, an increasing portion of water vapor becomes snowflakes, and the air contacting the cold surface becomes dryer.
“Owing to this effect, as the cold surface temperature decreases, an ever increasing portion of water vapor in the air becomes snowflakes; the air that comes in contact with the cold surface becomes dryer.”

Léoni et al. demonstrated that air near the very cold surface may cool so low that water vapor may directly undergo vapor-to-solid phase change, forming snowflakes.
“They demonstrated that the air in the vicinity of the server cold surface may be cooled down to such a low temperature, that the water vapor in the air may directly experience a vapor-to-solid phase change, thus forming snowflakes.”

As evaluated by Léoni et al., Hermes et al. assumed that only mass diffusion occurs in the frost layer (0.5 exponents for time), contrary to Yang and Lee.
“As evaluated by Léoni et al. [118], Hermes et al. assumed that only mass diffusion occurs in the frost layer (0.5 exponents for the time) contrary to Yang and Lee [89].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
