Life depends on the flow of hydrogen cations in water, yet their dynamic behaviour when complexed with water molecules is unknown. The latest computer simulations cast light on the jiggling of hydrated hydrogen ions. This work was supported by the US Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Basic Energy Sciences, Chemical Sciences program. The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is operated by Battelle for DOE.
