Observation of plastic ice VII by quasi-elastic neutron scattering

Richard Gaal, Livia Eleonora Bove Kado, Maria Rescigno

Water is the third most abundant molecule in the universe and a key component in the interiors of icy moons, giant planets and Uranus- and Neptune-like exoplanets1, 2–3. Owing to its distinct molecular structure and flexible hydrogen bonds that readily ada ...

Low-Temperature Dynamics of Water Confined in Unidirectional Hydrophilic Zeolite Nanopores

Livia Eleonora Bove Kado, Umbertoluca Ranieri, Maria Rescigno

The dynamical properties of water molecules confinedin the unidirectionalhydrophilic nanopores of AlPO4-54 are investigated withquasi-elastic neutron scattering as a function of temperature downto 118 K. AlPO4-54 has among the largest pores known foralumin ...

Observation of the most H2-dense filled ice under high pressure

Richard Gaal, Livia Eleonora Bove Kado, Lorenzo Monacelli, Maria Rescigno

Hydrogen hydrates are among the basic constituents of our solar system's outer planets, some of their moons, as well Neptune-like exo-planets. The details of their high-pressure phases and their thermodynamic conditions of formation and stability are funda ...

Temperature- and pressure-dependence of the hydrogen bond network in plastic ice VII

Livia Eleonora Bove Kado, Umbertoluca Ranieri, Maria Rescigno

We model, via classical molecular dynamics simulations, the plastic phase of ice VII across a wide range of the phase diagram of interest for planetary investigations. Although structural and dynamical properties of plastic ice VII are mostly independent o ...
