COVERComputer simulation of a molecular beam of the ben-zene-water dimer. The sizable penetration of the vander Waals surfaces, depicted by the dotted surfaces inthe bottom right corner (light blue for water and pink forbenzene), illustrates the hydrogen bond interaction of

water with the benzene t electron cloud. See page 942and the Perspective on page 887. [Computer graphics:Geoffrey A. Blake and Siddharth Dasgupta. Production:Mario Blanco and Carolynn Sherby, Molecular SimulationsInc.]
