Open AccessIce Regelation: Hydrogen-bond extraordinary recoverability and water quasisolid-phase-boundary dispersivity
Regelation, i.e., ice melts under compression and freezes again when the pressure is relieved, remains puzzling since its discovery in 1850’s by Faraday. Here we show that hydrogen bond (O:H-O) cooperativity a...
