Specific properties of supercooled water in light of water anomalies

Abstract

We review the effect of water anomalies on the properties of low temperature water. When supercooled, liquids dynamical properties change drastically. Supercooled liquids undergo an at least exponential decrease of their diffusion coefficient when temperature decreases while their structure merely does not change. We discuss how that still unexplained change of dynamical properties at low temperatures affect water differently from other liquids and what can be deduced from it.
