Given the importance of water and its welldiscussed anomalies, there are a large number of
monographs, 1-4 reviews, 5, 6 and even popular literature7 that cover a much broader …

When Szent-Györgyi1 called water the “matrix of life,” he was echoing an old sentiment.
Paracelsus, in the sixteenth century, said that “water was the matrix of the world and of all its …

HYDROGEN bonds play a crucial role in the behaviour of water1–4; their spatial patterns
and fluctuations characterize the structure and dynamics of the liquid5–7. The processes of …

Resonant ion-dip infrared spectroscopy has been used to record size-specific infrared
spectra of C6H6-(H2O) n clusters with n= 1 through 7 in the O—H stretch region. The O—H …

LIQUID water is a totally connected random network of hydrogen bonds, the connectivity
lying well above the percolation threshold1–3 But despite this extensive association of …

We study hydrogen-bond dynamics in liquid water at low temperatures using molecular
dynamics simulations, and find results supporting the hypothesized continuity of dynamic …

Most water ice in the universe is in a form which does not occur naturally on Earth and of
which only minimal amounts have been made in the laboratory. We have encountered this' …

Excess infrared (IR) absorption spectroscopy, a new concept brought forward by applying
the idea of excess thermodynamic functions to infrared spectroscopy, is shown to be a …

There is an urgent need for accurate anisotropic site-site intermolecular pair potentials for
use in realistic simulations of the condensed phases and spectra of van der Waals …

Although H2O has been the topic of considerable research since the beginning of the
century, most of its anomalous physical properties are still not well understood. First we …
