Abstract :
We seek to develop a "universal predictive model" for water in all its forms, such that any question about water could be answered by a suitable computer calculation. We this by combining highly detailed measurements of water clusters made by terahertz laser spectroscopy(a technology that our group pioneered two decades ago) with the best available computer calculations. We have published many papers on this subject, addressing clusters ranging from water dimer to hexamer[1].
