  • Abstract
    The THz absorption of the intermolecular vibrational modes of the hydrogen bond network of water has recently been found to define a dynamical solvation shell around solutes that extends beyond the first hydration layer. Here, we study the vibrations and dynamical processes in the hydrogen bond network of water using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to understand its properties.
