With this assumption, the growth equation becomes (Mason, 1971; Knight and Knight, 2001) Here below we show how to include a figure. Encapsulated Postscript files are automatically included according to the template suggestions. You need to download the file figure.eps to compile this example. Fig.~\ref{fig:epsart} shows a figure that is small enough to fit in a single column. It is embedded using the \texttt{figure} environment which provides both the caption and the imports the figure file. % % Example of figure here below % \begin{figure} \includegraphics[scale=0.30,angle=-90]{figure.eps}% Use scale and angle parameters to fit the figure in the text \caption{A figure caption. The figure captions are automatically numbered. The Rankine vortex model is characterized by a flow that is always and everywhere parallel to the $j$ unit vector, so the only non null vector component is the $v_\theta$ which is also the total velocity vector modulus. In this figure the normalized velocity vector modulus $(v/V_R)$ is plotted against the normalized radial distance $(r/R)$. Note that at the characteristic distance $R$ there flow is continuous, but the flow regime changes, form a solid rotation for $0 \leq r < R$ to a hyperbolic decrease at distances greater or equal than $R$. } \label{fig:epsart} \end{figure} \section{Results and Conclusions or what else} (Text in Times New Roman 10-normal justified and indented 0.5 cm - see example below). In this, work it is shown that the average mixing ratio vertical profile over the Friuli Venezia Giulia plain is not constant, neither in the various months of the year nor in the four times-of-the-day. In particular, the amount of mixing ratio increases from January to August and from morning (06 UTC) to night (00 UTC), being the last differences particularly evident in July, August and September. Taking into account these differences and using a simple analytical model for hail growth, it has been possible to reproduce the order of magnitude of the observed differences in the shape of the hailstone size distribution in the four times-of-the-day... \\ % % Here below examples of equations % In \LaTeX\ there are many different ways to display equations, and a few preferred ways are noted below. Displayed math will center by default. Use the class option \verb+fleqn+ to flush equations left. Below we have numbered single-line equations; \begin{eqnarray} \chi_+(p)\alt{\bf [}2|{\bf p}|(|{\bf p}|+p_z){\bf ]}^{-1/2} \left( \begin{array}{c} |{\bf p}|+p_z\\ px+ip_y \end{array}\right)\;, \\ \left\{% \openone234567890abc123\alpha\beta\gamma\delta1234556\alpha\beta \frac{1\sum^{a}_{b}}{A^2}% \right\}% \label{eq:one}. \end{eqnarray} Note the open one in Eq.~(\ref{eq:one}). Not all numbered equations will fit within a narrow column this way. The equation number will move down automatically if it cannot fit on the same line with a one-line equation: \begin{equation} \left\{ ab12345678abc123456abcdef\alpha\beta\gamma\delta1234556\alpha\beta \frac{1\sum^{a}_{b}}{A^2}% \right\}. \end{equation} When the \verb+\label{#1}+ command is used [cf. input for Eq.~(\ref{eq:one})], the equation can be referred to in text without knowing the equation number that \TeX\ will assign to it. Just use \verb+\ref{#1}+, where \verb+#1+ is the same name that used in the \verb+\label{#1}+ command. Unnumbered single-line equations can be typeset using the \verb+\[+, \verb+\]+ format: \[g^+g^+ \rightarrow g^+g^+g^+g^+ \dots ~,~~q^+q^+\rightarrow q^+g^+g^+ \dots ~. \] \begin{equation} \left. \nabla \times \boldsymbol{F} \right|_z \;\; = \;\; \left[ \frac{1}{r} ( \frac{\partial (r F_\theta)}{\partial r} - \frac{\partial F_r }{\partial \theta} ) \right] \label{eq:curlcyl} \end{equation} % % Here below an example of table % \section{Example of table} Here is reported an example on how to produce a table.
