Equation of State of Supercooled Water from the Sedimentation Profile

Abstract

To study the coexistence of two liquid states of water within one simulation box, we implement an equilibrium sedimentation method--which involves applying a gravitational field to the system and measuring/calculating the resulting density profile in equilibrium. We simulate a system of particles interacting via the ST2 potential, a model for water. We detect the coexistence of two liquid phases at low temperature.
