The term is also used to distinguish what is actually being enforced from what is considered legitimate. Enforcement of an unconstitutional statute would be a regime but not a [[law]].

In [[scientific]] [[discussions]], a regime is a class of [[physical]] conditions defined by specific [[measures]], where a particular physical [[phenomenon]] or boundary condition is significant. Very often a regime corresponds to a limiting condition. The region of measurable [[parameter]] space that corresponds to a regime is very often loosely defined. Examples include "the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superfluid superfluid regime]","the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steady_state steady state regime]", or "the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femtosecond femtosecond regime]".
