Water molecules in any of the ice polymorphs organize themselves into a perfect four-
coordinated hydrogen-bond network at the expense of dense packing. Even at high …

Atomistic simulations are employed to investigate the dynamics of shock-induced bubble
collapse in water. Two types of bubbles (an empty bubble and a bubble filled with N 2 gas) …

We report a molecular dynamics study of the heterogeneous crystallization of high-pressure
glassy water using (plastic) ice VII as a substrate. We focus on the thermodynamic …

Deep brines in water-rich planets form when electrolytes diffuse from the rocky interior
through layers of thick dense ice such as ice VII and the hypothesized plastic ice VII. We …

We model, via classical molecular dynamics simulations, the plastic phase of ice VII across a
wide range of the phase diagram of interest for planetary investigations. Although structural …

Atomic-scale simulations of ammonia hydrates pose major theoretical and numerical
challenges for several reasons. The description of disordered and/or frustrated systems …
