But conditions are not always optimal. The new images that Banerjee and his colleagues captured show that when graphene is folded or bent, the electron cloud lining its surface also becomes warped, ...

I got this from my brother. It's a paper that his friend in college wrote and actually turned in. It's a freaking riot:<BR><BR>http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~kovar/hall.html ...

A hydrogen atom has one proton as the nucleus and one electron in the region outside the nucleus. The electron and proton are attracted to each other. This attraction holds the atom together. It is ...

This allowed them to unravel the effect of the electron cloud from the other forces that may act on the probe, such as the weak van der Waals attraction which can draw molecules with charged atoms ...

But what they did see is how the electron cloud "migrated" within the molecule. A key role in such "migration" is played by a permanent dipole moment and degenerate states of the outer electron in ...

Recently, researchers at SLAC have invented a way to produce bursts of x-rays that can see the movement of electrons on timescales of the order of billionths of a billionth of a second (attoseconds).

A rendering of how changes in an electron's motion (bottom view) alter the scattering of light (top view), as measured in a new experiment that scattered more than 500 photons of light from a ...

The new images that Banerjee and his colleagues captured show that when graphene is folded or bent, the electron cloud lining its surface also becomes warped, making it more difficult for an ...
