LIQUID-LIKE (TRANSITION) LAYER ON ICE,

Abstract

A survey of the literature covering about the last hundred years is presented concerning the existence of a liquid-like transition layer on ice below its melting point. The conclusion is reached that the available evidence is very strongly in favor of the existence of such a layer. However, more direct measurements of the properties of such a layer are needed and possible methods for obtaining such information are indicated. (Author)
