A great success of solid state physics comes from the characterization of crystal structures in
the reciprocal (wave vector) space. The power of structural characterization in Fourier space …

Hydrophobic interactions are involved in and believed to be the fundamental driving force of
many chemical and biological phenomena in aqueous environments. This review focuses …

Two or more liquid states may exist even for single-component substances, which is known
as liquid polymorphism, and the transition between them is called liquid–liquid transition …

The origin of water's anomalies has been a matter of long-standing debate. A two-state
model, dating back to Röntgen, relies on the dynamical coexistence of two types of local …

Liquids can be broadly classified into two categories, fragile and strong ones, depending on
how their dynamical properties change with temperature. The dynamics of a strong liquid …

Realistically modelling how solvents affect catalytic reactions is a longstanding challenge
due to its prohibitive computational cost. Typically, an explicit atomistic treatment of the …

Water is the essential liquid on earth since it not only plays vital roles in living systems but
also has a significant impact on our daily life from various industrial applications to earth's …

Multiple numerical studies have unambiguously shown the existence of a liquid–liquid
critical point in supercooled states for different numerical models of water, and various …

Water displays a vast array of unique properties, known as water's anomalies, whose origin
remains subject to hot debate. Our aim in this article is to provide a unified microscopic …

We have applied a two-structure approach to the description of the thermodynamic
properties of supercooled and stretched water, metastable toward vapor, ice, or both, by …
