Sentences with phrase «quantum mechanical interactions»

But when we look at the quantum mechanical properties of an isolated atom, it turns out that we don't understand how the microscopic properties of the rock material result from the quantum mechanical interactions in an «a priori» fashion.

Not exact matches

If black hole after all the scenario of quantum mechanical process have completed their interactions behave accordingly to Relativity equation to became eventually a tiny speck in space of high intensity mass with very strong gravitation wave could the telescope have picked up such polarization of light from some gravitated wave of dying star or black hole.

«The reason is because these interactions are quantum mechanical in nature.

Supersymmetric models posit that every fundamental particle of the standard model (the particles that we know exist — electrons, quarks, and so on) has a partner — a particle with similar interactions but different quantum mechanical properties.

Using ultrafast lasers, they found that the interaction between the sun's energy and the chlorophyll molecules in a bacterium relies on a piece of quantum mechanical weirdness known as superposition, where a single photon's energy can temporarily be in many different states at once.

«In condensed matter physics, quantum materials — the materials and engineered structures in which interactions between the constituent particles show strong quantum - mechanical effects — present largely uncharted ground for study and immense opportunity for discovery,» said Cyndi Atherton, program director for the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, who will lead the new program.

Spin orbit coupling is a quantum mechanical phenomenon that results from the interaction between the electron's orbital motion in atoms and its spin orientation.

The exchange interaction refers to the magnetic interaction between electrons within an atom, which is determined by the orientation of each electron's magnetic «spin» — a quantum mechanical property to describe the intrinsic angular momentum carried by elementary particles, with only two options, either «up» or «down».

Their respective theoretical and experimental studies investigate how microscopic objects lose their quantum - mechanical properties through interactions with the environment.
