When an atom absorbs energy—such as from ... In rare earth elements, the glow results from electron transitions between 4f orbitals—regions around the atomic nucleus where electrons can ...

A surprising effect was discovered through a collaborative study by researchers from TU Wien and institutions in Croatia, ...

The interaction between the metal atom and the annulenes in sandwich compounds is said to be ‘out-of-plane’, because the metal atom is held above or below the planes of the annulenes.

Werner Heisenberg submitted a paper to Zeitschrift für Physik entitled ‘On quantum-theoretical reinterpretation of kinematic and mechanical relationships’, thus giving birth to quantum mechanics. In ...

A surprising connection has been found, between two seemingly very different classes of superconductors. In a new material, atoms are distributed irregularly, but still manage to create long-range ...

In RIT’s physics degree, you’ll gain an in-depth understanding of the basic principles governing the structure and behavior of matter, the generation and transfer of energy, and the interactions of ...

Specifically, what is the contribution of a given atom or functional group to the dispersion energy of a system, to the dispersion interaction between two monomers, or to the stabilization of a ...

Though Cosmos doesn’t always generate headline hype, it is methodically expanding. As institutional users and developers emphasise interoperability, ATOM may quietly become a critical component in the ...

Hyper-Rayleigh-Scattering first hyperpolarizability; electrostatic surface potential; electron localization function; localized orbital locator The optimized geometries of the RNTP and SNTP molecules, ...

Quantum mechanics is widely recognized as the basic law which governs all of nature, including all materials and devices. It has always been essential to the understanding of material properties, and ...
