Italian term

senza innesco

Italian to English Science Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng Microscope
It is about a research on a substance:

A caldo senza innesco per due giorni a temperature ambiente

No other context; I think "a caldo" refers to "hot stage" about a microscope

Discussion

Joel Schaefer Jun 4, 2013:
What is the substance? Surely you must know. If you tell us, we'll have a better idea whether fatigue or ignition applies (or something else).
James (Jim) Davis Jun 3, 2013:
Without context you are going on "I think" which is shooting in the dark.
F Filippi (asker) Jun 3, 2013:
I think I think it refers to a typical phenomenon that takes place when a substance splits itself, in Italian this phenomenon is called 'innesco'

James (Jim) Davis Jun 3, 2013:
Context I think you have to try harder to give us some context Francis, or obtain it. What is the document? Who wrote it? You would hardly keep something under a microscope for two days. Just as an example, in different contexts a "fido" could be a "credit line" or a "dog".

without ignition

Ciao Francesco,
long time, no see!

Sto proprio traducendo un testo Engl-It in cui si parla di questo e il termine usato sembra essere 'ignition'.

Cari saluti!
Example sentence:

[...] but the system is designed so the electrical energy or thermal energy of a particular instrument loop can never be great enough to cause *ignition*.

without external intervention

Considering the scarcity of context, as mentioned by James, that’s the best I can offer.
