Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) can be used to detect electric charge density as well as image atoms. This new advance comes from researchers at the University of California, Irvine, ...
A hydrogen atom has one proton as the nucleus and one electron in the region outside the nucleus. The electron and proton are attracted to each other. This attraction holds the atom together. It is ...
1928 Paul Dirac formulates his electron equation, which implies the existence of antielectrons — particles with the same mass as electrons but opposite charge.
Physics Experiment: Electric Charge & Electron Movement. Posted: March 14, 2025 | Last updated: March 14, 2025. The film explains the concept of electrons and their role in electric circuits.
The two quasiparticles in those experiments were the "spinon," a neutral quasiparticle that behaves magnetically like an electron, and the "holon," a spinless excitation carrying electric charge.
