  1. (not-comparable) Being nearly or almost universal; existing in the vast majority of typical conditions.
    • The quasiuniversality is a property of the conservative dynamics; nontrivial relations emerge as the binary interaction becomes tidally dominated. 2014, Sebastiano Bernuzzi, Alessandro Nagar, Simone Balmelli, Tim Dietrich, Maximiliano Ujevic, “Quasiuniversal properties of neutron star mergers”, in Physical Review Letters, volume 112, number 20, →DOI:
    • This long-lived transient regime implies that thermal equilibrium may be out of reach of the time scales accessible in present cold atom experiments but shows that an interesting new quasiuniversal transient state exists in nonequilibrium governed by a thermalized kinetic energy but not a thermalized potential energy. 2012, K Mikelsons, J K Freericks, H R Krishnamurthy, “Quasiuniversal transient behavior of a nonequilibrium Mott insulator driven by an electric field”, in Physical Review Letters, volume 109, number 26, →DOI:
