A new analysis reveals what happens when very short or narrow electron beams encounter a particle. The research is published ...

A group of researchers from Ehime University investigated valence electron configurations using light, expanding on prior studies of superconductors and quantum spin liquids. The findings were ...

Quantum mechanics has a reputation that precedes it. Virtually everyone who has bumped up against the quantum realm, whether in a physics class, in the lab, or in popular science writing, is left ...

Electron tomography is a powerful imaging technique that enables the three-dimensional (3D) visualization and analysis of nanostructures at the atomic scale. By combining advanced electron microscopy ...

Louisiana School for Math, Science, and the Arts students played Battleship with periodic tables to review electron configurations during class Oct. 6. Students had to give the corresponding electron ...

Electron diffraction is a powerful analytical technique used to study the atomic structure of materials. It involves the interaction of a beam of electrons with a crystalline sample, resulting in a ...
