The phrase "a branch point" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts such as discussions about decision-making, processes, or pathways where a choice or divergence occurs.
Example: "In the project timeline, we reached a branch point where we had to decide whether to proceed with the original plan or explore new options."
Alternatives: "a decision point" or "a divergence point".
The planar vortex sheet is known to develop a branch point singularity in finite time.
The reaction catalyzed by aci-reductone-dioxygenase (ARD) represents a branch point in the methionine salvage pathway.
The characterization of the multigraft copolymers revealed a branch point and molecular architecture dependence of the softening parameter.
Can't that have just one child?" Yes it can have just one child, but then it's not really a branch point, is it?
In animals, IRE1 plays multiple roles other than the cleavage of XBP1 mRNA and serves as a branch point for ER stress response signalling2.
Brain is a tangle of such cells, in which it is easy for any one "pilot" to miss a branch point.
In particular, the formation of a saddle point in the frequency plane and a branch point in the parameter space is the basis for explaining the properties associated with these phenomena.
It is further shown that mode localization is also associated with the appearance of a branch point near the real axis of the complex parameter plane, which causes the large sensitivity that characterizes the phenomenon.
Comparison of the planar and axisymmetric solutions indicates that the axisymmetric sheet develops a branch point singularity as well, and that it is of the same order p as the planar singularity.
We generated GT rice plants in which the OsIRE1 gene was replaced with missense alleles, and we genetically demonstrated that OsIRE1 plays multiple roles and serves as a branch point in signalling.
As expected, a branch point occurs on the origin at (g = sqrt{N}/alphamu_{E}).
