Abstract

A fundamental possibility of visualizing cluster structures formed in distilled water by an optical method based on the analysis of dynamic speckle structures is demonstrated. It is shown for the first time that, in contrast to the existing concepts, water clusters can be rather large (up to 200 -m in size), and their lifetime is several tens of seconds. These clusters are found to have an internal spatially inhomogeneous structure, constantly changing in time. The properties of magnetized and non-magnetized water are found to differ significantly. In particular, the number of clusters formed in magnetized water is several times larger than that formed in the same volume of non-magnetized water.
