Abstract
Density functional theory (DFT) has been extensively used to model the properties of water. Albeit maintaining a good balance between accuracy and efficiency, no density functional has so far achieved the degree of accuracy necessary to correctly predict the properties of water across the entire phase diagram. Here, we present density-corrected SCAN (DC-SCAN) calculations for water which, minimizing density-driven errors, elevate the accuracy of the SCAN functional to that of "gold standard" coupled-cluster theory. Building upon the accuracy of DC-SCAN within a many-body formalism, we introduce a data-driven many-body potential energy function, MB-SCAN(DC), that quantitatively reproduces coupled cluster reference values for interaction, binding, and individual many-body energies of water clusters. Importantly, molecular dynamics simulations carried out with MB-SCAN(DC) also reproduce the properties of liquid water, which thus demonstrates that MB-SCAN(DC) is effectively the first DFT-based model that correctly describes water from the gas to the liquid phase.

Abstract
Extensive molecular dynamics simulations of xenon in two classes of zeolite crystal systems, one consisting of purely intra-crystalline space and the other with both intra- and inter-crystalline space are reported. The latter mimics a typical poly-crystalline sample of zeolite. Comparison of results from these two systems provides insights into the structure and dynamics in the presence of inter-crystalline space. The temperature, as well as the distance between the crystallites, has been varied. The density distribution and diffusivities calculated inside the poly-crystalline system show that the interfacial region between the crystal and the inter-crystalline region acts as a bottleneck for diffusion through the system. At lower temperatures, the particles are trapped at the interface due to the pronounced energy minima present in that region. With the increase in temperature, the particles are able to overcome this barrier frequently, and the transport across the inter-crystalline region is increased. A ballistic or superdiffusive motion is seen in the inter-crystalline region along all the axes except along the axis which has the inter-crystalline space. The transition time for ballistic to diffusive motion increases with the increase in the length of the inter-crystalline space. Velocity auto- and cross correlation functions exhibit strong oscillations and exchange of kinetic energy along directions perpendicular to the direction of the inter-crystalline space. These results explain why uptake and PFG-NMR measurements exhibit lower values for diffusivity for the same system when compared to Quasi-Elastic Neutron Scattering. Thus, using molecular dynamics simulations, we were able to correlate the difference of diffusivity values measured using various experimental methods where these inter-crystalline regions are common.

Abstract
A molecular dynamics study of liquid water and models of water has been carried out to understand the effect of changes in the mass distribution on molecular translation and rotation. Calculations on the motion of mH2O and H2nO, where m and n vary over a range of values by varying the mass at the hydrogen and oxygen positions, show that these form two distinct series. The two series exhibit different translational and rotational properties. Although a decrease in diffusivity when compared to H2O is observed in both the series, in the case of mH2O series, an enhancement in the ratio of diffusivities {D[H2O]/D[mH2O]} is found as compared to the square root of the inverse mass ratios, whereas the effect of mass distribution for H2nO is seen to lead to a reduction in the ratio of diffusivities {D[H2O]/D[H2nO]} with respect to the square root of the inverse mass ratios. However, the ratios of diffusivities in both the series deviate from the corresponding mass ratios, which can be attributed to the translation-rotation coupling in liquid water.

Abstract
The central role played by water in fundamental processes relevant to different disciplines, including chemistry, physics, biology, materials science, geology, and climate research, cannot be overemphasized. It is thus not surprising that, since the pioneering work by Stillinger and Rahman, many theoretical and computational studies have attempted to develop a microscopic description of the unique properties of water under different thermodynamic conditions. Consequently, numerous molecular models based on either molecular mechanics or ab initio approaches have been proposed over the years. However, despite continued progress, the correct prediction of the properties of water from small gas-phase clusters to the liquid phase and ice through a single molecular model remains challenging. To large extent, this is due to the difficulties encountered in the accurate modeling of the underlying hydrogen-bond network in which both number and strength of the hydrogen bonds vary continuously as a result of a subtle interplay between energetic, entropic, and nuclear quantum effects. In the past decade, the development of efficient algorithms for correlated electronic structure calculations of small molecular complexes, accompanied by tremendous progress in the analytical representation of multidimensional potential energy surfaces, opened the doors to the design of highly accurate potential energy functions built upon rigorous representations of the many-body expansion (MBE) of the interaction energies. This Account provides a critical overview of the performance of the MB-pol many-body potential energy function through a systematic analysis of energetic, structural, thermodynamic, and dynamical properties as well as of vibrational spectra of water from the gas to the condensed phase. It is shown that MB-pol achieves unprecedented accuracy across all phases of water through a quantitative description of each individual term of the MBE, with a physically correct representation of both short- and long-range many-body contributions. Comparisons with experimental data probing different regions of the water potential energy surface from clusters to bulk demonstrate that MB-pol represents a major step toward the long-sought-after "universal model" capable of accurately describing the molecular properties of water under different conditions and in different environments. Along this path, future challenges include the extension of the many-body scheme adopted by MB-pol to the description of generic solutes as well as the integration of MB-pol in an efficient theoretical and computational framework to model acid-base reactions in aqueous environments. In this context, given the nontraditional form of the MB-pol energy and force expressions, synergistic efforts by theoretical/computational chemists/physicists and computer scientists will be critical for the development of high-performance software for many-body molecular dynamics simulations.

Abstract
Almost 50 years have passed from the first computer simulations of water, and a large number of molecular models have been proposed since then to elucidate the unique behavior of water across different phases. In this article, we review the recent progress in the development of analytical potential energy functions that aim at correctly representing many-body effects. Starting from the many-body expansion of the interaction energy, specific focus is on different classes of potential energy functions built upon a hierarchy of approximations and on their ability to accurately reproduce reference data obtained from state-of-the-art electronic structure calculations and experimental measurements. We show that most recent potential energy functions, which include explicit short-range representations of two-body and three-body effects along with a physically correct description of many-body effects at all distances, predict the properties of water from the gas to the condensed phase with unprecedented accuracy, thus opening the door to the long-sought "universal model" capable of describing the behavior of water under different conditions and in different environments.
