متن کاملStructure and dynamics of potassium chloride in aqueous solution.
The structure and dynamics of potassium chloride in aqueous solution over a wide range of concentrations-and in particular beyond saturation-are studied using molecular dynamics simulations to help shed light on recent experimental studies of nonphotochemical laser-induced nucleation (NPLIN). In NPLIN experiments, the duration, t, of the laser pulse (with wavelength 1064 nm) is found to influen...
