A nanosecond pulsed IR (1.9 μm) laser rapidly heated water, in an open vessel, to temperatures well below the boiling point. The subsequent dynamics of volume expansion were monitored using time-resolved interferometry in order to measure the increase in the water level in the heated area. The water expanded at less than the speed of sound, taking just less than 100 ns to increase its height by ∼500 nm at surface temperature jumps of 20 K. The initial expansion was followed by an apparent contraction and then a re-expansion. The first expansion phase occurred more slowly than the timescale for bulk H-bond re-structuring of the water, as determined from vibrational bands in the Raman spectra, and represents the limit to the rate at which the overpressure caused by sudden heating can be released. The second phase of the expansion was caused by hydrodynamic effects and is accompanied by morphological changes resulting in light scattering as well as droplet spallation.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
