What you’re looking at is the first direct observation of an atom’s electron orbital — an atom’s actual wave function! To capture the image, researchers utilized a new quantum microscope ...

Atomic-scale imaging emerged in the mid-1950s and has been advancing rapidly ever since—so much so, that back in 2008, physicists successfully used an electron microscope to image a single ...

AN ATOM'S electrons are an ever-shifting quantum melee, but it turns out you can still take their photograph as if they were standing still. A quantum-style microscope has imaged the hydrogen atom ...

Hydrogen bonds are at the very core of life as we know it, and now for the first time ever scientists have managed to visualize these transient molecular associations. This technique can be used ...

TEAM 0.5 is the world's most powerful transmission electron microscope and is capable of producing images with half-angstrom resolution, less than the diameter of a single hydrogen atom.

The hydrogen atom (blue) hits the graphene surface (black) and forms an ultra-fast bond with a carbon atom (red). ... (IMAGE) University of Göttingen. Caption.

What lies within the H atom? Experimental observation of the transverse nodal structure of four atomic hydrogen Stark states. The images in the middle show experimental measurements. Interference ...

The hydrogen bond forms between the hydrogen attached to the red oxygen and the nitrogen atom. A few more images, of the molecules with different hydrogen bond connections: Zhang, et. al, Science ...

Five water molecules and the hydrogen bonds between them shown here. The 8+ symbol means there is a slight positive charge on that part of the molecule (where the white hydrogen atoms are located ...

Carboxylic acids are ubiquitous in bioactive organic molecules and readily available chemical building blocks. Carboxylic ...

This unusual hydrogen atom doesn’t respond to light, which makes it invisible to instruments that rely on electromagnetic signals. Oks refers to it as a “second flavor” of hydrogen, and he ...
