We use the isoconfigurational (IC) ensemble to show the connection between emerging heterogeneities in the tetrahedral order parameter and the dynamic propensity in a mildly undercooled glass-forming liquid. We observe that spatially…
Ji et al. report performing X-ray diffraction on hydrogen compressed to over 250 GPa (https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-019-1565-9). It is a remarkable technical achievement. However, the experimental data presented and discussed in the paper…
Production of metallic hydrogen is one of the top three open quests of physics. Recent low-temperature experiments report different metallization pressures, varying from 360GPa to 490GPa. In this work, we simulate structural properties,…

A thermodynamically consistent mathematical model for hydrogen adsorption in metal hydrides is proposed. Beside hydrogen diffusion, the model accounts for phase transformation accompanied by hysteresis, swelling, temperature and heat…
We present molecular dynamics simulations of the SPC/E model of water to probe the dynamic properties at temperatures from 350 K down to 190 K and pressures from 2.5GPa (25kbar) down to -300MPa (-3kbar). We compare our results with those…
We examine several different simplified approaches for modelling the chemistry of CO in three-dimensional numerical simulations of turbulent molecular clouds. We compare the different models both by looking at the behaviour of integrated…

Although liquid water has been studied for many decades by (X-ray and neutron) diffraction measurements, new experimental results keep appearing, virtually every year. The reason for this is that neither X-ray, nor neutron diffraction data…
