Just How Small Is an Atom?

Explore the fascinating world of atoms in this video, which delves into their fundamental components: protons, neutrons, and ...
Researchers at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands have observed the magnetic nucleus of an atom flipping ...
This lesson utilizes an adaptation of the board game Subatomic: An Atom Building Game to help students learn about the different parts that make up an atom.
For the first time, scientists have taken the first X-ray signal of a single atom, with such detection having the potential to revolutionize areas of science like quantum information ...
A Vermont research team has cracked a 90-year-old puzzle, creating a quantum version of the damped harmonic oscillator. By reformulating Lamb’s classical model, they showed how atomic vibrations can ...
By entangling vibrations within a single atom, scientists have realized a long-theorized quantum code that could make ...
The present model is accurate to one part in 10 million. An improved model, the Bureau thinks, should be accurate to one part in 100 million; it would vary one second in about three years.
A research team has created a quantum logic gate that uses fewer qubits by encoding them with the powerful GKP ...
This week in science news, we discovered the near-complete remains of a never-before-seen mosasaur that dominated the ancient Pacific Ocean, learned of atom-size black holes that could be ...
The size of an atom is only a few angstroms at most - there are 10 billion angstroms in 1 meter. This video also goes the basic parts of an atom (protons, neutrons, and electrons) and why the ...
