Sentences with phrase «ordinary hydrogen»

That is 4 per cent smaller than when using ordinary hydrogen, a discrepancy quantum physics can not explain.

Were the experimenters working with ordinary hydrogen atoms, they could have used laser light to boost atoms to their 2S state and then tickle them with an electric field to make them fluoresce.

Heavy water: Water containing a significantly greater proportion of heavy hydrogen (deuterium) atoms to ordinary hydrogen atoms than is found in ordinary (light) water.

Now, Jeffrey Hangst, an experimental physicist at Aarhus University in Denmark, and his 48 colleagues at the ALPHA collaboration at CERN have precisely measured the energy difference between antihydrogen's lowest energy state, called the 1S, and a higher energy state known as the 2S, by far the most precisely measured transition in ordinary hydrogen.

Physicists would also like to study anti-atoms with laser spectroscopy to probe their energy level structure; according to fundamental physics theories antihydrogen should have the same spectrum as ordinary hydrogen.

Deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen that has a different neutron absorption spectrum from that of ordinary hydrogen.

Two of these experiments aim to make and trap anti-hydrogen atoms for close comparison with ordinary hydrogen — a glimpse into the anti-world.

In 2006 Mikhail Shchepinov of biotech firm Retrotope, based in Los Altos Hills, California, proposed that PUFAs containing deuterium should be less susceptible to free - radical damage, since deuterium forms stronger bonds than ordinary hydrogen.

Next, Agee and his colleagues used a laser to extract water molecules trapped within minerals in the meteorite and fed them into a mass spectrometer to calculate the ratio of deuterium, a heavy isotope of hydrogen, to ordinary hydrogen.

Curiosity's sampling of the Martian soil has also revealed that the ratio of deuterium — the heavy isotope of hydrogen — to ordinary hydrogen is five times higher on Mars than on Earth.

Ordinary hydrogen is made of a light, negatively charged electron orbiting a heavy, positively charged proton.

The ordinary hydrogen - burning dwarf stars like the Sun are found in a band running from top - left to bottom - right called the Main Sequence.
