abstract = {Reaction pathways of biochemical processes are influenced
by the dissipative electrostatic interaction of the reagents
with solvent water molecules. The simulation of these
interactions requires a parametrization of the permanent and
induced dipole moments. However, the underlying molecular
polarizability of water and its dependence on ions are
partially unknown. Here, we apply intense terahertz pulses
to liquid water, whose oscillations match the timescale of
orientational relaxation. Using a combination of terahertz
pump / optical probe experiments, molecular dynamics
simulations, and a Langevin dynamics model, we demonstrate a
transient orientation of their dipole moments, not possible
by optical excitation. The resulting birefringence reveals
that the polarizability of water is lower along its dipole
moment than the average value perpendicular to it. This
anisotropy, also observed in heavy water and alcohols,
increases with the concentration of sodium iodide dissolved
in water. Our results enable a more accurate parametrization
and a benchmarking of existing and future water models.},
