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 ...

Recent developments in cryo-electron microscopy have enabled structure determination of large protein complexes at almost atomic resolution. Wang et al.combine some of these technologies into an ...

JJ Thomson’s discovery of the electron in 1897 reshaped physics forever. Honoured with the 1906 Nobel Prize, he mentored ...

Giant atom hides its neighbors under a single-electron skirt Atomic radius expands, pulling neighboring atoms into its warm embrace.

Valence electrons — the outermost electrons in an atom and the ones actually responsible ... The data matched the first model ...

The Standard Model predicts that particles surrounding electrons do affect an electron's shape, but at such an infinitesimal scale as to be pretty much undetectable using existing technology.

Which one has a positive charge, a negative charge, and no charge? Proton—positive; electron—negative; neutron—no charge. The charge on the proton and electron are exactly the same size but opposite.
