Briefing: X-ray lasers enable the discovery of a critical point in water

The research conducted at Stockholm University utilized advanced X-ray lasers to explore the phase behavior of supercooled water.

The critical point was identified at approximately -63 °C and a pressure of 1,000 atmospheres, conditions that significantly alter water's physical properties.

These findings may have implications for various scientific fields, including climate modeling and material science, by providing deeper insights into the behavior of water under extreme conditions.
