Classical molecular dynamics simulation calculations of silver bromide, AgBr, and silver chloride, AgCl. in constant volume–energy (NVE) and constant pressure–temperature (NPT) ensembles have been performed. The temperature dependence of linear thermal expansion and molar heat capacities at constant volume and pressure have been presented at solid and liquid phases. The anomalous behavior of these properties about 200 K below the melting temperatures has been analyzed within the frame of the onset of the transition to the superionic phase.

Heavy water or deuterium oxide, D<sub>2</sub>O, is used as solvent in various biophysical and chemical experiments. To model such experiments with molecular dynamics simulations, effective pair potentials for heavy water are required that reproduce the well-known physicochemical differences relative to light water. We present three effective pair potentials for heavy water, denoted SPC/E-HW, TIP3P-HW, and TIP4P/2005-HW. The models were parametrized by modifying widely used three- and four-site models for light water, with aim of maintaining the specific characteristics of the light water models. At room temperature, the SPC/E-HW and TIP3P-HW capture the modulations relative to light water of the mass and electron densities, heat of vaporization, diffusion coefficient, and water structure. TIP4P/2005-HW captures in addition the density of heavy water over a wide temperature range.

<div>A combination of the temporally- and spatially-resolved phonon spectroscopy has enabled calibration of hydrogen bond transition from the vibration mode of heavy water to the core-shelled nanodroplet and the sub-nanosized ionic hydration shell in terms of phonon abundance-lifetime-stiffness. It is uncovered that charge injection by salt solvation and skin formation by molecular undercoordination (often called confinement) share the same supersolidity of H–O (D–O as a probe) bond contraction, O:H elongation, and electron polarization. The bond transition stems the solution viscosity, surface stress, and slows down the molecular dynamics. The skin reflection further hinders phonon energy dissipation and thus lengthens the phonon lifetime of the nanodroplet.</div>
