Mainz, Germany (SPX) Dec 14, 2016 -
We all know that water melts at 0C. However, already 150 years ago the famous physicist Michael Faraday discovered that at the surface of frozen ice, well below 0C, a thin film of liquid-like water is present. This thin film makes ice slippery and is crucial for the motion of glaciers.
Since Faraday's discovery, the properties of this water-like layer have been the research topic of scient ...
