The water molecule occurs in two nuclear-spin isomers that differ by the value of the total nuclear spin of the hydrogen atoms, i.e., $I=0$ for para-H$_2$O and $I=1$ for ortho-H$_2$O. Spectroscopic transitions between rovibrational states…
Past research has conclusively shown that confined pockets of water exhibit properties that differ from those of unconfined ("bulk") water. The differences between confined water and bulk, as well as between different types of confined…
The lack of accurate low-energy electron scattering cross sections for liquid water is a substantial source of uncertainty in the modelling of radiation chemistry and biology. The use of existing amorphous ice scattering cross sections for…
Hypothesis. Ortho and para water are the two nuclear isomers where the hydrogen protons align to give a total nuclear spin of 0 or 1.The equilibrium ratio of 3:1 is established slowly in freshly evaporated water vapour and the isomers then…
