We study the evolution of a trapped atomic cloud subject to a trapping frequency jump for two cases: stationary and moving center of mass. In the first case, the frequency jump initiates oscillations in the cloud's momentum and size. At…
The supercooled state of bulk water is largely hidden by unavoidable crystallization, which creates an experimentally inaccessible temperature regime - a 'no man's land'. We address this and circumvent the crystallization problem by…

Water is essential for the activity of proteins. However, the effect of the properties of water on the behavior of proteins is only partially understood. Recently, several experiments have investigated the relation between the dynamics of…
The striking behavior of water has deserved it to be referred to as an "anomalous" liquid. The water anomalies are greatly amplified in metastable (supercooled/stretched) regions. This makes difficult a complete experimental description…
Recently, we demonstrated that the local heating of degassed water can generate water vapor microbubbles and induce a rapid flow around the bubble. Although flow generation involves the self-excited oscillation of bubbles at a local heating…
Glycerol acts as a natural cryoprotectant by depressing the temperature of ice nucleation and slowing down the dynamics of water mixtures. In this work we characterize dynamics -- diffusion, viscosity, and hydrogen-bond dynamics -- as well…
Empirical studies have demonstrated that humans possess the remarkable capacity to distinguish whether a glass of water is hot or cold solely by the sound of pouring it. However, the underlying physical mechanisms governing the disparities…
Among the numerous anomalies of water, the acceleration of dynamics under pressure is particularly puzzling. Whereas the diffusivity anomaly observed in experiments has been reproduced in several computer studies, the parallel viscosity…

Liquid water is one of the most studied substances, yet many of its properties are difficult to rationalize. The uniqueness of water is rooted in the dynamic network of hydrogen-bonded molecules with relaxation time constants of about one…
The thermodynamic properties of the supercooled liquid state of the mW model of water show anomalous behavior. Like in real water, the heat capacity and compressibility sharply increase upon supercooling. One of the possible explanations of…
A roughly constant temperature over a wide range of densities is maintained in molecular clouds through radiative heating and cooling. An isothermal equation of state is therefore frequently employed in molecular cloud simulations. However,…
In this paper, we investigate quantitatively the coupling between gradients of temperature and of chemical or water potential under steady state conditions in the vapor phase. This coupling is important for the measurement and modeling of…
We use systematic 8 ns ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) to study the structure and dynamics of water in bulk, and close to both hydrophobic and hydrophilic (carbonyl) groups of tetramethylurea (TMU). We observe crossovers in the…
One striking anomaly of water ice has been largely neglected and never explained. Replacing hydrogen ($^1$H) by deuterium ($^2$H) causes ice to expand, whereas the "normal" isotope effect is volume contraction with increased mass.…
