FROM the point of view of the electron theory, a metal is any solid which is a good conductor of electricity. In attempting to survey roughly the present position of the electron theory of metals ...

Whether powered by electricity or ... to add time resolution to electron microscopes.” The researchers were successful in ...

One electron is ripped out of the atom, another electron is shifted into a state with higher energy. Quantum theory describes events that take place on extremely short time scales. In the past ...

Scientists have set up and observed a single electron bond between two carbon molecules. A traditional “single bond” is actually two electrons—one from each atom. This is one electron. The fragile ...

our understanding of electron behaviour is being changed by new research. In high school science class, we learned that plugging a cable into an electrical circuit sets off a flow of electrons ...

Whereas electronics uses the charge of the electron to transfer ... the monopoles as the photon energy was changed. In this ...

Quantum theory describes events that take place ... If the remaining electron is in a state of higher energy, then the electron that flew away was more likely to have been torn out at an early ...
