Structure of supercooled and glassy water under pressure.
We use molecular-dynamics simulations to study the effect of temperature and pressure on the local structure of liquid water in parallel with neutron-scattering experiments. We find, in agreement with experimental results, that the simulated liquid structure at high pressure is nearly independent of temperature, and remarkably similar to the known structure of the high-density amorphous ice. Fu...
متن کاملSoft glassy rheology of supercooled molecular liquids.
We probe the mechanical response of two supercooled liquids, glycerol and ortho-terphenyl, by conducting rheological experiments at very weak stresses. We find a complex fluid behavior suggesting the gradual emergence of an extended, delicate solid-like network in both materials in the supercooled state-i.e., above the glass transition. This network stiffens as it ages, and very early in this p...
متن کاملLiquid-liquid transition in supercooled water suggested by microsecond simulations.
The putative liquid-liquid phase transition in supercooled water has been used to explain many anomalous behaviors of water. However, no direct experimental verification of such a phase transition has been accomplished, and theoretical studies from different simulations contradict each other. We investigated the putative liquid-liquid phase transition using the Water potential from Adaptive For...
متن کاملPressure-induced transformations in computer simulations of glassy water.
Glassy water occurs in at least two broad categories: low-density amorphous (LDA) and high-density amorphous (HDA) solid water. We perform out-of-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations to study the transformations of glassy water using the ST2 model. Specifically, we study the known (i) compression-induced LDA-to-HDA, (ii) decompression-induced HDA-to-LDA, and (iii) compression-induced hexa...
متن کاملImmersion freezing of supercooled water drops containing glassy volcanic ash particles
The freezing temperatures of hundreds of water drops with radii 20–50 lm containing known average concentrations of suspended, mostly micronto submicron-sized, volcanic ash particles composed of SiO2-rich glass were recorded using optical microscopy. As expected, the ash suppresses supercooling, and in contrast to earlier studies of much larger ash particles, the median freezing temperature cle...
