For the First Time, Scientists Caught Atoms Freely Interacting in Space—and It Was Stunning
Until now, atoms have never been imaged interacting freely in space, but a new technique known as non-resolved microscopy has changed that. MIT physicists were able to successfully capture images of ...
Water is made of hydrogen and oxygen, and sometimes these atoms are slightly heavier than usual. These heavier forms are ...
A novel method to manipulate the inner structure of cells connects several scientific fields and could represent a ...
Scientists have created new extraheavy versions of three silvery metals in an advance that could lead to better understanding of how some elements are forged in stars. The new heavyweights are ...
In this lesson, students will simulate the randomness of decay in radioactive atoms and visualize the half-life of a sample radioactive element. This lesson can be completed in two (2) 45-minute class ...
