The phrase "a shallow minimum" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts where you are discussing a low threshold or a minimal level of something, often in a metaphorical sense.
Example: "The analysis revealed that the project's success hinged on achieving a shallow minimum of user engagement."
Alternatives: "a low threshold" or "a minimal level".
Finally we predict a shallow minimum on top of the triaxial inner barriers of N≃154 nuclei.
We observe that the energy dispersion along the direction displays a shallow minimum of 1 meV in the vicinity of the ferromagnetic state (q=0), and right- (q>0) and left-rotating (q<0) spin spirals are degenerate.
The transition state represents a shallow minimum of the molar Helmholtz free energy as a function of the order parameter and is not significant in a large system because the global optimum there is delivered by the heterogeneous mixture of the two bulk phases connected by the common-tangent construction.
The pH decreased from the SWI down to a shallow minimum of 6.47 at ca. 5 mm.
The Se-Ag interatomic potential has a shallow minimum near the Se-Ag correlation distance, whereas all other interactions of Ag-atoms are repulsive.
Second, the ratio of the effective rigidity of the detector to that of the vertical channel, shown in Fig. 3, has a shallow minimum at γ=−1.39 (〈R eff 〉=41.36 GV at this γ).
The light curve of an eclipsing binary i.e., a plot of its changes in brightness over time has a deep minimum when the brighter star is eclipsed and a shallower minimum when the dimmer star is eclipsed.
7 That there are more highly directed water molecules around O1 is further evident on comparison of the gO1-Ow(r) and gO3-Ow(r) functions in Figure 2 a; the gO1-Ow(r) shows a more shallow minimum after the first peak compared to the gO3-Ow(r).
The small and shared unique shapes completely dominate in Figure 8(a), being nearly the same as the total count of unique shapes across the entire volume; however, the small unique shapes in Figure 8(b) show a very shallow minimum at about volume 200 Å3 prior to significantly increasing as a function of volume.
The energy E decorrelates fastest, with a clear minimum at τ traj ≈ 0.3, whereas the magnetic susceptibility exhibits a very shallow minimum starting from τ traj ≈ 1.
With respect to the starting nitro species, the barrier heights for both process are very similar (11 15 kcal mol−1 depending on the method) with the intermediate sitting in a very shallow minimum with barriers of only 1 2 kcal mol−1 on either side.
