“…For example, our recent theoretical study demonstrated [24] how successive aggregation of four water molecules can explain the HCl dissociation observed under the cryogenic conditions of a superfluid helium droplet in terms of an "aggregation-induced chemical reaction". [27,28] Recent experiments using three complementary techniques, namely, X-ray absorption, photoemission, and infrared spectroscopy, demonstrated [29,30] that HCl dissociation takes place spontaneously, that is, without an energy barrier, upon adsorption on the ice surface, even at temperatures as low as 20 K. Acid dissociation remains in the focus of current research, not only because of its fundamental relevance, but also due to its practical importance.
