Topic: Cold water and ice: Insights from computer simulations
Speaker: Dr. AngelosMichaelides
Thomas Young Centre, UCL, London, UK
Abstract:
Recent work from our research group in which we are trying to understand the intimate molecular level details of water freezing will be discussed. A particular emphasis will be placed on the role the surfaces of foreign materials play in accelerating the nucleation process [1-4] and on the dynamical nature of the nucleation event.
