The first direct observation of the orbital structure of an excited hydrogen atom has been made by an international team of researchers. The observation was made using a newly developed “quantum ...

In 2013, physicists used a "quantum microscope" to peer inside a hydrogen atom. Credit: A. S. Stodolna et al., 2013 ...

Part I, appearing in July 1913, described the quantum rules for electron orbits and quantum jumps in the hydrogen atom, explaining the spectrum of colors it emitted.

It turns out, if you isolate a single quantum dot and look at its spectrum (particularly when cold), it has very narrow emission lines like an atom. But the beads of semiconductor in a vial are ...

The hydrogen atom has long been a highly desirable system because of its simplicity. A lone electron moves around a lone proton. And yet the classical motion of the electron becomes chaotic when ...

For example, the oxygen atom has eight electrons, the atom of iron has 26 electrons. Once Bohr tried to use his model to predict the spectral lines of more complex atoms, the results became ...

While the quantum world is all around us, shrinking down to the size of an atom to experience this strange realm would be difficult. Skip to content Introducing the all-new Astronomy.com Forum!

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) A trapped-ion quantum computer was used to simulate the ultrafast behavior of real molecules after light absorption, employing a mixed qudit-boson approach that ...
