Water's Quantum Jazz

A series of articles by Dr. Mae-Wan Ho originally circulated in September/October 2010

  • Cooperative and Coherent Water Cooperative hydrogen-bonding between molecules gives rise to energetically favourable three-dimensional network of supramolecular clusters in liquid water under ambient conditions, resulting in long-range dipole correlation and quantum coherence.
  • Dancing with Ions Water has a special dynamic relationship with ions dissolved in it that will determine their chemistry in the cell.
  • Dancing with Macromolecules Macromolecules need lots of water to function effortlessly and acquire completely new talents when fully hydrated.
  • The Rainbow Ensemble How water keeps ‘most everything in the cell dancing most of the time, and what’s the cell really like.
