| description | Austen Angell conducted pioneering work that opened up the field of supercooled water by observing the temperature dependent divergence of the thermodynamic response functions. Many different scenarios have been proposed as the origin of the anomalous properties and now it has become possible to test the various hypotheses in experimental studies of bulk supercooled water at conditions where ice crystallization becomes extremely rapid. Through the usage of x-ray lasers, ultrafast measurements could be conducted, as the sample is rapidly brought to the extreme conditions on time scales preceding ice formation. In particular the experimental observation of the existence of a liquid-liquid transition at positive pressure, one phase behavior at atmospheric conditions at temperatures down to 228 K, and the existence of maxima in several properties at 230 K indicative of a Widom line, are only consistent with the proposed liquid-liquid critical point model as the origin of the anomalous properties. |
