Sentences with phrase «orbiting electrons»

They shoot atoms, each with a widely orbiting electron, through a photon stream, and then measure how much the photons knock the electrons out of phase.

Superheavy nuclei have so many protons that they are thought to accelerate orbiting electrons, making them travel at up to 80 per cent the speed of light.

One of the most ubiquitous is the «octet rule,» which states that each atom in a molecule that is produced by a chemical reaction will have eight outer orbiting electrons.

«Ever since the beginning of quantum mechanics people have been looking for a configuration which could explain the stability of atoms and why orbiting electrons do not radiate,» Dr Miroshnichenko said.

Prior attempts to measure the proton's g - factor were not precise as they were restricted to probing protons in atoms, where orbiting electrons disguise the proton's properties.

Rydberg polarons are a new class of polarons in which the high - energy, far - orbiting electron gathers hundreds of atoms within its orbit as it moves through a dense, ultracold cloud.

Theory says that gamma rays, being even more energetic than x-rays, ought to bypass orbiting electrons altogether; materials should not bend them at all and the refractive index for gamma rays should be almost equal to one.

Notice the orbiting electron logo?

In so far as a hydrogen atom can be represented at all by a model it consists of a central proton with an orbiting electron.

They show the beauty of the atom, including its orbiting electrons in the colors of red, orange, and light green.

The idea that massive stars will have a considerable effect on their surroundings is not new: such stars are known to blast out vast quantities of powerful, ionising radiation — emission with enough energy to strip atoms of their orbiting electrons.

It is easy to observe that H only emits very specific energies of light which are «easily» predicted by the quantum mechanics of the orbiting electrons and the allowed transitions between energy levels of those orbits.
