Molecular simulations reveal that heterogeneous ice nucleation occurs at higher temperatures in water under capillary tension

<p>Heterogeneous ice nucleation is thought to be the primary pathway for the formation of ice in mixed-phase clouds, with the number of active ice-nucleating particles (INPs) increasing rapidly with decreasing temperature. Here, molecular-dynamics simulations of heterogeneous ice nucleation de...
