Why does lead behave so differently from every other atomic nucleus when struck by electrons? A team of physicists at ...

In 1998 scientists Richard Bader and Carlo Gatti proposed a mathematical model, describing the distribution of delocalized electrons in molecules. Now new research is the first to confirm the accuracy ...

The electron, against predictions, appears to be perfectly round, raising questions about one of the fundamental building blocks of the universe. An electron's shape refers to that of the cloud of ...

Neutrinos, though nearly invisible, are among the most numerous matter particles in the universe. The Standard Model ...

As electrons are quantum objects, they cannot be clearly identified (or, to use the scientific term, localized) in a particular place. This means that the behaviour of electrons cannot be described ...
