But water switches not yet designed for future upgrades may require the more accurate understanding of the phases of water discovered by the Sandia researchers.

Supercomputer simulations by Sandia researchers have significantly altered the theoretical diagram universally used by scientists to understand the characteristics of water at extreme temperatures ...

The paper, by Y. Huang at Dalian University of Technology in Dalian, China, and colleagues was titled, 'A new phase diagram of water under negative pressure: The rise of the lowest-density ...

By analysing the pressure-temperature phase diagram of this nanoconfined water, as it is known, the team found that it exhibits an intermediate “hexatic” phase and is also highly conducting. The ...

Most importantly, in the reconstructed temperature–pressure (T-P) phase diagram of water, the EMT ice is located at deeply negative pressure regions below ice XVI and at higher temperature regions ...
