When water is confined to nanocavities, its quantum-mechanical behavior can be revealed by terahertz spectroscopy. We place H2O molecules in the nanopores of a beryl crystal-lattice and observe a rich and highly anisotropic set of…
Realistic modeling of ionic systems necessitates taking explicitly account of many-body effects. In molecular dynamics simulations, it is possible to introduce explicitly these effects through the use of additional degrees of freedom. Here…
Over the past few decades the experimental literature has consistently reported observations of attraction between like-charged colloidal particles and macromolecules in solution. Examples include nucleic acids and colloidal particles in…
Based on recent studies on hydrophobic interactions, it is devoted to investigate the directional nature of hydrophobic interactions. It means that the hydrophobic interactions are dependent on the relative orientations as the solutes tend…
We calculate the ion and composition distributions around colloid particles in an aqueous mixture, accounting for preferential adsorption, electrostatic interaction, selective solvation among ions and polar molecules, and…
The ionization potential distributions of hydrated hydroxide and hydronium are computed with many-body approach for electron excitations with configurations generated by {\it ab initio} molecular dynamics. The experimental features are well…
We predict that pairs of polar molecules can be weakly bound together in an ultracold environment, provided that a dc electric field is present. The field that links the molecules together also strongly influences the basic properties of…
Dynamic fluctuations in hydrogen-bond network of water occur from femto- to nano-second timescale and provides insights into structural/dynamical aspects of water at ion-water interfaces. Employing terahertz spectroscopy assisted with…
In sharp contrast to the prevailing view that electric fields promote water freezing, here we show by molecular dynamics simulations that monolayer ice confined between two parallel plates can melt into liquid water under perpendicularly…
We theoretically study the influence of laser polarization in inelastic scattering of electrons by hydrogen atoms in the presence of a circularly polarized laser field in the domain of field strengths below $10^{7}$ V/cm and high projectile…
The matching conditions at the interface between two non-mixed fluids at rest are obtained directly using the equation of movement of the whole media. This is a non-usual point of view in hydrodynamics courses and our aim is to fix ideas…
Hydrodynamic interactions in a suspension of spherical particles confined between two parallel planar walls are studied under creeping-flow conditions. The many-particle friction matrix in this system is evaluated using our novel numerical…
Stark effect is calculated by the perturbation theory method separately for the ortho and para water molecules. At room temperature, a 30%-difference in the energy change is found for the two species put in electric field. This implies a…
Depolarizing collisions are elastic or quasielastic collisions that equalize the populations and destroy the coherence between the magnetic sublevels of atomic levels. In astrophysical plasmas, the main depolarizing collider is neutral…
Hydrogen bonds are typically treated as sufficiently localized directional intermolecular bonds, in which dispersion and electrostatic contributions can be distinguished. However, being formed chiefly due to the overlapping of p orbitals of…
We study how hydrodynamic interactions affect the collective behaviour of active particles suspended in a fluid at high concentrations, with particular attention to lubrication forces which appear when the particles are very close to one…
It is known that in a water solution with multivalent counterions (Z-ions), two likely charged macroions can attract each other due to correlations of Z-ions adsorbed on their surfaces. This "correlation" attraction is short-ranged and…
The interaction of bodies in a fluid, mediated by hydrodynamic fluctuations and proposed by Dzyaloshinskii, Lifshitz, and Pitaevskii, is calculated exactly for parallel infinite planes and is shown to be attractive. The second mechanism of…
Water is often viewed as a collection of monomers interacting electrostatically with each other. We compare the water proton momentum distributions from recent neutron scattering data with those calculated from two electronic structure…
In this work, we assess the accuracy of dielectric-dependent hybrid density functionals and many-body perturbation theory methods for the calculation of electron affinities of small water clusters, including hydrogen-bonded water dimer and…
