Scientists Unearth Peculiar Properties and Anomalies Related to Water and Ice

Water is vital to life on Earth, and it's importance cannot be overstated. However, from a scientific point of view, there is more to be known about water and its various solid phases. These phases exhibit a plethora of unusual properties and so-called anomalies which, while being the main reason for the biological and chemical importance of water, are often viewed as controversial.

Berkeley Lab Researchers Achieve New Understanding of Metastable Materials

They say diamonds are forever, but in fact they are a metastable form of carbon that will slowly and ultimately transform into another form of carbon, graphite. It would be of great potential if materials designers could design and synthesize other long-lasting, thermodynamically metastable materials. However, this has yet to become a reality due to the lack of rational understanding of them.
