Erasing no-man’s land by thermodynamically stabilizing the liquid-liquid transition in tetrahedral particles

One of the most controversial hypotheses for explaining the origin of the thermodynamic anomalies characterizing liquid water postulates the presence of a metastable second-order liquid-liquid critical point [1] located in the “no-man’s land” [2]. In this scenario, two liquids with distinct local st...
