Study of Slow Dynamics in Supercooled Water by Molecular Dynamics and Quasi-Elastic Neutron Scattering
The slow dynamics of supercooled water is studied by modelling the spectrum of test particle fluctuations: intermediate scattering function (ISF). The theoretical models are compared with experimental measurements by quasi-elastic neutron scattering (QENS) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation results. The dynamics of supercooled water can be decoupled into a product of translational and rotat...
متن کاملStructure and dynamics of hydrogen molecules in the novel clathrate hydrate by high pressure neutron diffraction.
The D2 clathrate hydrate crystal structure was determined as a function of temperature and pressure by neutron diffraction for the first time. The hydrogen occupancy in the (32+X)H2.136H(2)O, x=0-16 clathrate can be reversibly varied by changing the large (hexakaidecahedral) cage occupancy between two and four molecules, while remaining single occupancy of the small (dodecahedral) cage. Above 1...
متن کاملObservation of the dynamics of polyelectrolyte strong solutions by quasi-elastic neutron scattering
2014 We report results of quasi-elastic neutron scattering experiments on concentrated polyelectrolyte solutions in water without added salt. The polyion is sulphonated polystyrene, associated successively with sodium and tetramethylammonium counterions. In this second case, all possible configurations of deuterated and non deuterated charged components are tested. The quantities first derived ...
متن کاملThe fluctuating ribosome: thermal molecular dynamics characterized by neutron scattering
Conformational changes associated with ribosome function have been identified by X-ray crystallography and cryo-electron microscopy. These methods, however, inform poorly on timescales. Neutron scattering is well adapted for direct measurements of thermal molecular dynamics, the 'lubricant' for the conformational fluctuations required for biological activity. The method was applied to compare w...
متن کاملWater Dynamics in Shewanella oneidensis at Ambient and High Pressure using Quasi-Elastic Neutron Scattering
Quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS) is an ideal technique for studying water transport and relaxation dynamics at pico- to nanosecond timescales and at length scales relevant to cellular dimensions. Studies of high pressure dynamic effects in live organisms are needed to understand Earth's deep biosphere and biotechnology applications. Here we applied QENS to study water transport in Shewane...
