Entrance dynamics of CH<inf>4</inf> molecules through a methane-water interface

Abstract We studied the entrance mechanism of methane molecules into bulk water by Molecular Dynamics simulation over a broad time window. We corroborated that the presence of absorbed methane, under the studied thermodynamic state (298 K and roughly 10 MPa), does not influence the molecular configu...
