چکیده

The dynamic crossover behavior of supercooled water as described by the first-principle based WAIL potential was investigated. Below the second liquid-liquid critical point, the viscosity shows a discontinuous jump consistent with a first-order phase transition between the high density liquid and the low density liquid. Above the critical point, a continuous transition occurs with only the first derivative of viscosity being discontinuous, and the dynamic crossover temperature is about 8 K below the thermodynamic switchover temperature. The 8 K shift can be explained by a delay in dynamic crossover, which does not occur until the more viscous liquid starts to dominate the population and jams the flow. On the basis of finite-size effects observed in our simulations, we believe that dynamic discontinuity may be observable above the critical point in confined water when the confinement is on a length scale shorter than the spatial correlation.

Recent results on the connection between thermodynamics and dynamics in supercooled water.

We review recent results on the connection between thermodynamics and dynamics in a model for water. We verify the Adam-Gibbs relation between entropy and dynamic properties using computer simulations, which allow direct access to the relevant properties. We combine experimental measurements of entropy with the Adam-Gibbs hypothesis to predict dynamic properties in deeply supercooled states, wh...

Effect of pressure on the dynamics of water and other tetrahedral network forming liquids

On decreasing the temperature T , supercooled water and other tetrahedral network-forming liquids, such as BeF2 or SiO2, appear to display a dynamic crossover from non-Arrhenius dynamics (with T -dependent activation energy) to Arrhenius dynamics (with constant activation energy). Simulations for water models show that this crossover occurs on crossing the Widom line TW (P ), the locus of maxim...

Dynamic susceptibility of supercooled water and its relation to the dynamic crossover phenomenon.

We study the dynamic susceptibility chi_{T}(Q,t) of deeply supercooled water by means of quasielastic neutron scattering and molecular dynamics simulations. Both techniques show an increase in the peak height of chi_{T}(Q,t) as the temperature is lowered toward the dynamic crossover temperature T_{L} . Below T_{L} , the peak height decreases steadily. We attribute this phenomenon to the change ...

Subquadratic wavenumber dependence of the structural relaxation of supercooled liquid in the crossover regime.

As a liquid is progressively supercooled toward its glass transition temperature, an intriguing weakening of the wavenumber (q) dependence of the structural relaxation time tau(q) in the intermediate-to-large q limit is observed both in experiments and simulation studies. Neither continuous Brownian diffusive dynamics nor discontinuous activated events can alone explain the anomalous wavenumber...
