Compressing or cooling a fluid typically enhances its static interparticle correlations. However, there are notable exceptions. Isothermal compression can reduce the translational order of fluids that exhibit anomalous waterlike trends in…

Ionic transport in conventional ionic solids is generally considered to proceed via independent diffusion events or "hops''. This assumption leads to well-known Arrhenius expressions for transport coefficients, and is equivalent to assuming…
