title: Evidence for atomic mixing via multiple intermediates during the dynamic interconversion of silicate oligomers in solution.
abstract: We investigate Si(8)- and Si(16)-based silicate species via global optimisation searches and ab initio calculations and propose a new multi-mechanism interpretation of the experimentally observed atomic mixing of silicate oligomers in solution.
