To set a wider table, which takes up the whole width of
the page’s live area, use the environment table* to enclose the table’s contents and the table caption. As with
a single-column table, this wide table will “float" to a location deemed more desirable. Immediately following this
sentence is the point at which Table 2 is included in the input file; again, it is instructive to compare the placement of
the table here with the table in the printed dvi output of
this document.

Figures
Like tables, figures cannot be split across pages; the best
placement for them is typically the top or the bottom of
the page nearest their initial cite. To ensure this proper
“floating” placement of figures, use the environment figure
to enclose the figure and its caption.
This sample document contains examples of .eps and .ps
files to be displayable with LATEX. More details on each of
these is found in the Author’s Guide.
As was the case with tables, you may want a figure that
spans two columns. To do this, and still to ensure proper
“floating” placement of tables, use the environment figure*
to enclose the figure and its caption.
Note that either .ps or .eps formats are used; use the \epsfig
or \psfig commands as appropriate for the different file
types.

Theorem-like Constructs
Other common constructs that may occur in your article
are the forms for logical constructs like theorems, axioms,
corollaries and proofs. There are two forms, one produced by
the command \newtheorem and the other by the command
\newdef; perhaps the clearest and easiest way to distinguish
them is to compare the two in the output of this sample
document:
This uses the theorem environment, created by the
\newtheorem command:
Theorem 1. Let f be continuous on [a, b]. If G is an
antiderivative for f on [a, b], then
Z b
f (t)dt = G(b) − G(a).
a
The other uses the definition environment, created by the
\newdef command:
Definition 1. If z is irrational, then by ez we mean the
unique number which has logarithm z:
log ez = z
Two lists of constructs that use one of these forms is given
in the Author’s Guidelines.
and don’t forget to end the environment with figure*, not
figure!
