1 Super-cooled and glassy water and liquid-liquid phase transitions: a computer simulation perspective
H.E. Stanley Department of Physics Boston University, Boston Peter H. Poole Department of Physics St. Francis Xavier University Antigonish, Nova Scotia, Canada

2 Outline of the talk Outline of the talk
Brief Review of Anomalies and Interpretation models The contribution of Simulation Liquid-Liquid Critical Point: A review of the last 15 years Slow Dynamics Connection to the glass-glass transitions Landscape Interpretation of the thermodynamic anomalies and of the Liquid-Liquid CP Outline of the talk

3 Water Anomalies: Water Anomalies Increasing anomalous on supercooling
Diverge ? Connections between anomalies ? Water Anomalies

4 Dynamic Anomalies Dh/T=const. D tD=const. Dynamic Anomalis

5 The Speedy-Angel proposal
Reentrant spinodal

6 1992:Computer Simulation Approach to the Problem (ST2) The old data

7 The ST2 scenario (1992) The ST2 scenario

8 TIP5P SPC/E Altri Potenziali

9 Isotherms of pressure vs volume for ST2 water
ST2 revisited (P. Poole et al preprint) Isotherms of pressure vs volume for ST2 water Cavitation: nucleation of gas bubble in stretched liquid Liquid-liquid phase separation Isotherms

10 Isochores of liquid ST2 water
HDL LDL New Feature Isochore

11 New Peter data Phase Diag
HDL = high density liquid LDL = low density liquid liquid liquid + gas TMD LDL HDL HDL+LDL New Peter data Phase Diag

12 The 2005 ST2 Phase Diagram The 2005 ST2

13 CONSEGUENZA PER BASSA T
Two open problems: If there is no reentrant spinodal, why dynamics is anomalous ? If there are two liquids at low T, which are the two corresponding glasses ? CONSEGUENZA PER BASSA T

26 What can we expect from simulations (in this context!)
Resolution of the pre-glassy Behavior (Tg glass, Strong/Fragile). Help from primitive models. Study of the phase diagram of polarizable potentials and (later on) CP calculations Detailed comparisons with exp data in confined geometries Conclusions
