Sentences with phrase «enough photon energy»

(eg water in the ocean) Specifically I contend that there is not enough photon energy available so that ALL added CO2 or water vapor (in the case of feedback) WILL absorb a photon to contribute to the GHE.

This pulse also has to be short to catch the direction of electron motion and have enough photon energy to knock the excited electrons out of the molecule.

4s) then photons erupted from this energy cloud (detectable today as the microwave background radiation) 5s) photons and other particles form the bodies of the early universe (atoms, molecules, stars, planets, galaxies) 6s) it rained on the early earth until it was cool enough for oceans to form 7s) the first life form was blue green bacteria.

4) then photons erupted from this energy 4) let there be LIGHT (1 - 4 all the first day) cloud (detectable today as the microwave background radiation) 5) photons and other particles form the 5) God next creates the heavens (what we call the sky) above bodies of the early universe (atoms, (2nd day) molecules, stars, planets, galaxies) 6) it rained on the early earth until it was 6) dry land appears as the oceans form (3rd day) cool enough for oceans to form 7) the first life form was blue green bacteria.

Then, when the cosmos reached an age of about 300,000 years and cooled enough for energy to stream through the matter unimpeded, the photons escaped.

If even a small amount of energy from phonons (the sound units that carry the energy through the germanium or silicon, much as photons are the units of light) hit the detector, it can be enough to make the device lose superconductivity and register a potential dark matter event through a device called a superconducting quantum interference device, or SQUID.

Ionizing radiation is a type of particle radiation in which an individual particle (for example, a photon, electron, or helium nucleus) carries enough energy to ionize an atom or molecule (that is, to completely remove an electron from its orbit).

Ordinarily, they don't stick around long enough to be directly observed, but if a pair straddles the event horizon, then one photon can fall into the black hole, while the other escapes, carrying energy away as Hawking radiation.

Researchers have known for decades that if incoming photons have enough energy, they can liberate two or even three electrons.

Some of those photons carry enough energy to overcome the «stickiness» holding electrons to a metal.

Traditional lasers are made from materials that have been pumped with enough energy to make them spontaneously burst with photons.

The photons bounce between these mirrors, passing through the wiggler until they build up enough energy to escape through one partially transparent mirror.

But a photon can give an electron enough energy to escape that pull, much like a video game character getting a power - up to jump a motorbike across a ravine.

Green - light photons hold 240 kJ / mole of energy, which is enough to bend (but not break) the rhodopsin molecules in our retinas that trigger our photosensitive rod cells to fire.

If the photon doesn't have enough energy, the electron stays put.

The negative crystal has extra electrons, and when a photon with enough energy strikes the material, it dislodges an electron on the positive side, increasing its energy and leaving behind a «hole.»

Within that plane, photons are so concentrated that they interact with the dye in pairs, each of which has enough energy to light up the dye molecules.

An individual molecule can only directly vaporize from an absorbed photon if that photon possesses enough energy to transfer to the molecule so that it can overcome the heat of vaporization barrier.

It's not really to do with photons emitted by the surface at first, it is just more photons emitted by the atmosphere with more GHGs, making a larger downward IR flux changing the energy balance at the surface until it warms up enough to emit more and balance it again.

Near infrared photons / particles / wavelengths are not big enough to do this, that is why it is classed in with Light and not classed in with Heat, because it is not a thermal energy.

As an example, I was running out some of calcs the other day and at the temperature I was using, only 1 in 800 CO2s had the energy necessary to shoot off a photon (and consequently, one N2 in 800 also had that energy), but that was exactly enough to balance the absorption I was dealing with.

Increase the flux in, the sample warms until it is in equilibrium and then there will be sufficient CO2 molecules with an energy state high enough to shoot out as many photons as are coming in.

When a photon hits a molecule, if it has too much energy, enough is absorbed to boost an electron to the next higher orbit and the rest is immediately radiated away.

Radiation from a molecule at -80 C therefore can not provide enough energy in the form of photons, to warm molecules (by boosting electrons into higher, more energetic orbits) at -4 C or above (seawater temperatures).

The CO2 (or other GHG molecule) certainly absorbs specific LWIR energies, according to the energy levels of its excited molecular states;» BUT» in the lower atmosphere it NEVER (hardly ever) has enough time to re-radiate that absorbed Photon, at the same energy and frequency (wavelength).

If there isn't enough energy to boost an electron to the next available slot in a higher orbit, the photon's energy is immediately re-radiated leaving the molecule with the same kinetic energy (temperature) as before.
