Physicists at MIT have developed a new way to probe inside an atom's nucleus, using the atom's own electrons as "messengers" ...

The question is from a student in Mrs. Alexander's seventh-grade science class at Smithton Middle School. A: "An electron is both a wave and a particle. You cannot pinpoint exactly where it is as any ...

Stockholm — Three scientists won the Nobel Prize in physics on Tuesday for studying how electrons zip around atoms in fractions of seconds, a field that could one day lead to better electronics or ...

All the elements in the Periodic Table are made from different atoms, and the structure of these atoms results in a gamut of phenomena from radioactive decay to nuclear power. When you purchase ...

Can scientists image the motion of electrons inside atoms? It’s a challenging problem, but solving it would help us develop a more complete understanding of things like chemical reactions and the ...

Three scientists won the Nobel Prize in physics on Tuesday for studying how electrons zip around the atom in the tiniest fractions of seconds, a field that could one day lead to better electronics or ...

Electrons moving in graphene behave in an unusual way, as demonstrated by 2010 Nobel Prize laureates for physics Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov, who performed transport experiments on this ...

Scientists have demonstrated for the first time how electrons are transported from a superconductor through a quantum dot into a metal with normal conductivity. This transport process through a ...
