Abstract

It is demonstrated that the thermal origin of the excess wing in the THz portion of the dielectric spectrum of water is the same as that of the main dielectric peak. The implication is that models positing the free rotation of water molecules to account for the Excess wing are not correct. A self-terminating Proton cascade is one possible explanation.
