The Journal of Condensed Matter Physics has put out a special issue on the dynamics of water and glass-forming liquids that features six ORNL neutron sciences research collaborations. The special issue focused on fluids and other soft condensed materials confined in matrices, a natural area for neutron scattering investigations. The primary goal is to understand the fundamental physics behind why a liquid would freeze or not freeze under given conditions. Primary instruments for such studies are the Spallation Neturon Source's Backscattering Spectrometer, the Neutron Spin Echo Spectrometer and the Nanoscale-Ordered Materials Diffractometer. - Agatha Bardoel, 865.574.0644, March 01, 2012
