Externally driven local colloidal ordering induced by a point-like heat source
Nicolas Bruot, Hajime Tanaka
We study here how phase transitions are induced in colloidal suspensions by a point-like heat source, an optically trapped metal oxide particle absorbing light. We find that thermo…

Distinct signature of two local structural motifs of liquid water in the scattering function
Rui Shi, Hajime Tanaka
Liquids generally become more ordered upon cooling. However, it has been a long-standing debate on whether such structural ordering in liquid water takes place continuously or disc…

Crystalline clusters in mW water: stability, growth, and grain boundaries
Fabio Leoni, Rui Shi, Hajime Tanaka +1
With numerical simulations of the mW model of water, we investigate the energetic stability of crystalline clusters for both Ice I (cubic and hexagonal ice) and for the metastable…
