When Electrons Slowly Vanish During Cooling https://thequantuminsider.com/?p=2357446 #Research #electrons #ETH_Zürich #Europe #quantum_information #quantum_technology #research #University_of_Bonn #quantumdaily Insider Brief: Many substances change their properties when they are cooled below a certain critical temperature. Such a phase transition occurs, for example, when water freezes. However, in certain metals there are phase transitions that do not exist in the macrocosm. They arise because

"“I don’t think Guinness tracks this, but if they did, we’d have a new world record,” says physicist Tanya Roussy of the University of Colorado Boulder. The new measurement is so precise that, if an electron were the size of Earth, any asymmetry in its shape would have to be on a scale smaller than an atom.""

380,000 years after the Big Bang, the universe was cool enough for electrons to orbit atomic nuclei, thus forming the first complete atoms.

hat are metals, and why do they have the properties that they do? A great resource for science teachers and students, with help from animated GIFs

According to #QuantumMechanics the position of #electrons in an #atom cannot just be simply described by particles rotating around the #nucleus. Their location is indeed given by a function called #AtomicOrbital, which calculates where it is more probable to find electrons of a specific energetic level. Different orbitals are identified by letters (s,p, d and f) and generally visually represented in a simplistic way by “clouds” of a specific shape: the simplest - s - is a sphere, p is a sort of dumbbell, and d and f orbitals have more complicated shapes.

Here I represented the Li, C and Si atoms with their orbitals, where s orbitals are in blue and p orbitals in orange/yellow.

Not being a #physicist, I’m not remotely equipped to address this topic, but I gave it a shot. I talked about probabilities and shooting #electrons at sheets of #gold atoms, about solidity being illusory at small enough scales (and, given enough time, maybe large scales). I talked about electronics design having to take into account quantum behavior.

I’m not trying to be funny when I say that I leaned on every bit of #theology training I had with the benefit of having evidence to point to.

we hear a lot of nonsense from #chatGPT, but this ... wow:

"In space, #vacuum #tube #technology would not work as the vacuum would be lost in #space and the #electrons would not be able to flow freely."

Today's Science fact:

Electricity, what is it?

On a base level is the movement of electrons, which is the flow of a positive to a negative, or is it a negative to positive... 🤔

How do electrons act?

It's all about the flow of electrons, a current. They move from a highly charged space to a lower charged space. Simular to water in a pipe, moving down hill to a lower place.

Energy is lazy. It takes the easiest path why birds and other animals can stand on bare high power electrical wires. Because the skin of their feet is harder to push current through than the metal because they are not touching the ground.

Electrons aren't created, but they move from one atom to another when given the right motivation.

This can be mechanical energy, like friction from socks that give you a shock when you touch someone. That's the build of exter

Controlling the internal states of #quantum systems is one of the biggest challenges in quantum materials. At the deepest level, single #molecules can display different quantum states, even while possessing the same number of #electrons.

How fast do #electrons inside a #molecule move? Well, it is so fast that it takes them just few #attoseconds (1 as = 10-18 s or one billionth of billionth of a second) to jump from one #atom to another.
