Structure of Supercritical Water Decoded

Two RESOLV groups, led by Prof. Havenith and Prof. Marx, published in Science Advances. When exposed to high temperatures and pressure, water enters a state in which liquid and gas can no longer be distinguished. For a long time, there has been controversy about how this looks like on a molecular level.
