A growing number of satellites in the outer solar system likely have global oceans beneath
their outer icy shells. While the presence of liquid water makes these ocean worlds …

An important feature of natural ice, in addition to the obvious relevance of glaciers and ice
sheets for climate-related issues, is its ability to creep on geological time scales and low …

Grain boundary velocity has been believed to be correlated to curvature, and this is an
important relationship for modeling how polycrystalline materials coarsen during annealing …

Ice breaking by a cavitating water jet based on Venturi structure is studied experimentally.
Systematic researches of cavitating water jet interacting with ice are carried out by doing …

Ice recrystallization is of great importance to both fundamental research and practical
applications, however understanding and controlling ice recrystallization processes remains …

Ice breaking has become one of the main problems faced by ships and other equipment
operating in an ice-covered water region. New methods are always being pursued and …

Glaciers, ice sheets and ice caps represent tectonic systems driven by gravity. Their
movement can be studied in real time and the rheological properties and strength of ice …

Abstract The IceCube Neutrino Observatory instruments about 1 km 3 of deep, glacial ice at
the geographic South Pole. It uses 5160 photomultipliers to detect Cherenkov light emitted …

Context. With seven planets, the TRAPPIST-1 system has among the largest number of
exoplanets discovered in a single system so far. The system is of astrobiological interest …

Understanding the microscopic variability of impurities in glacier ice on a quantitative level
has importance for assessing the preservation of paleoclimatic signals and enables the …
