triple point

The point in a one-component system at which the temperature and pressure of three phases are in equilibrium. If there are $p$ possible phases, there are $p ! ( p − 3 ) ! 3 !$ triple points. Example: In the sulfur system four possible triple points (one metastable) exist for the four phases comprising rhombic S (solid), monoclinic S (solid), S (liquid) and S (vapour).
