Theory 10/Molecular & anomalous/Supercooled water
Supercooling Is Entropy Against Relaxation
The claim
Supercooled water's anomalous slowdown is set by the ratio of configurational entropy to relaxation time, so viscosity diverges where entropy becomes small.
01Mechanism
Flow requires accessible configurations; as they vanish, relaxation slows sharply.
02Prediction
Relaxation should track the ratio.
03Refutation
Relaxation tracking temperature alone would remove entropy.
