In the framework of the Herschel-WISH key program, several ortho-H2O and para-H2O emission lines, in the frequency range from 500 to 1700 GHz, were observed with the HIFI instrument in two bow-shock regions (B2 and R) of the L1157 cloud.…
The viscosity of methane and carbon dioxide hydrate systems were measured using a high-pressure rheometer up to 30 MPag. Where hydrate formation was not detected, the effect of temperature on the viscosity was one order of magnitude higher…
The object of this study is the kinetic process of solid-liquid first-order phase transition - melting of carbon dioxide CS-I hydrate with various cavity occupation ratios. The work was done within a framework of study on the local…
Hydrogels are particularly versatile materials that are widely found in both Nature and industry. One key reason for this versatility is their high water content, which lets them dramatically change their volume and many of their mechanical…
The supra-molecular structure of a liquid is strongly connected to its dynamics which in turn controls macroscopic properties such as viscosity. Consequently, detailed knowledge about how this structure changes with temperature is essential…
Intensity mapping experiments are beginning to measure the spatial distribution of neutral atomic hydrogen (HI) to constrain cosmological parameters and the large-scale distribution of matter. However, models of the behaviour of HI as a…
The absorption spectrum of the title compound in the spectral range of the Hydrogen-bonded OH-stretching vibration has been investigated using a five-dimensional gas phase model as well as a QM/MM classical molecular dynamics simulation in…
We numerically investigate the metastable equilibrium structure of deep supercooled and glassy water under pressure, covering the range of densities corresponding to the experimentally produced high-density and very-high-density amorphous…
We resolved the hydrogen bond transition from the mode of ordinary water to its hydration in terms of its phonon stiffness (vibration frequency shift), order of fluctuation (line width), and number fraction (phonon abundance) upon chage…
We have investigated the effects of either distorting hydrogen bonds or removing proton degeneracy on the thermodynamic properties of a minimal model for associating liquids. The presence of two liquid phases and a density anomaly is…
Recent high-dispersion spectroscopy from ground-based telescopes and high-precision spectroscopy from space observatories have enabled atmospheric observations of substellar objects, such as brown dwarfs and hot gaseous exoplanets, with…
The structure of the recently identified metastable ice XVII, obtained by release of hydrogen from the C$_0$ D$_2$O-H$_2$ compound (filled ice), has been accurately measured by neutron powder diffraction. The diffraction pattern is indexed…
We comment on a recent paper published by McWilliams et al claiming that high-pressure/high-temperature hydrogen is a semi-conductor or semi-metal, in conflict with all earlier measurements on this system which show that it is metallic. We…
The hydrogen-bond network of water is characterized by the presence of coordination defects relative to the ideal tetrahedral network of ice, whose fluctuations determine the static and time-dependent properties of the liquid. Because of…
The origin of the dramatic changes in the behavior of liquids as they approach their vitreous state - increases of many orders of magnitude in transport properties and dynamic time scales - is a major unsolved problem in condensed matter.…
Hydrogen-bonded mixtures with varying concentration are a complicated networked system that demands a detection technique with both time and frequency resolutions. Hydrogen-bonded pyridine-water mixtures are studied by a time-frequency…
Water is a key ingredient for life and plays a central role as solvent in many biochemical reactions. However, the intrinsically quantum nature of the hydrogen nucleus, revealing itself in a large variety of physical manifestations,…
Nitrogen hydrides, including ammonia (NH3), hydrazine (N2H4), hydrazoic acid (HN3) and etc, are compounds of great fundamental and applied importance. Their high-pressure behavior is important because of their abundance in giant planets and…
Gas hydrates are systems of prime importance. In particular, hydrogen hydrates are potential materials of icy satellites and comets, and may be used for hydrogen storage. We explore the H2O-H2 system at pressures in the range 0-100 GPa with…
Understanding the hydration and diffusion of ions in water at the molecular level is a topic of widespread importance. The ammonium ion (NH$_4^+$) is an exemplar system that has received attention for decades because of its complex…
