Structural transitions and dipole moment of water clusters (H 2 O) n=4-100

The properties of water clusters (H 2 O) n over a broad range of sizes (n=4-100) were studied by microcanonical parallel tempering Monte Carlo and replica exchange molecular dynamics simulations at temperatures between 20 and 300 K, with special emphasis in the understanding of relation between the...
