Understanding the Anomalous Diffusion of Water in Aqueous Electrolytes Using Machine Learned Potentials

Nikhil V. S. Avula, Michael L. Klein, Sundaram Balasubramanian

The diffusivity of water in aqueous cesium iodide solutions is larger than that in neat liquid water, and vice versa for sodium chloride solutions. Such peculiar ion-specific behav…

Dissolving salt is not equivalent to applying a pressure on water

Chunyi Zhang, Shuwen Yue, Athanassios Z. Panagiotopoulos +2

Salt water is ubiquitous, playing crucial roles in geological and physiological processes. Despite centuries of investigations, whether or not water's structure is drastically chan…

Importance of Nuclear Quantum Effects on the Hydration of Chloride Ion

Jianhang Xu, Zhaoru Sun, Chunyi Zhang +4

Path-integral ab initio molecular dynamics (PI-AIMD) calculations have been employed to probe the nature of chloride ion solvation in aqueous solution. Nuclear quantum effects (NQE…

Lone Pair Rotational Dynamics in Solids

Richard C. Remsing, Michael L. Klein

Traditional classifications of crystalline phases focus on nuclear degrees of freedom. Through examination of both electronic and nuclear structure, we introduce the concept of an…
