How do the partical diagrams given here compare to the diagrams you use in school? Some of the particle diagrams shown in the image seem to imply that there are large gaps between the particles in a ...

INSERT [STATE_CI_03 - particle diagram of a solid, liquid and gas] In the solid state the particles of the substance are packed tightly in fixed positions and are all touching. The particles move ...

Liquid crystals are substances that flow like a liquid but maintain some of the ordered structure of crystals. Liquid-crystal molecules tend to be elongated and to orient in specific directions ...

Particle physics is the study of the elementary building blocks of matter and radiation and their interaction. The fundamental particles are summarised by the standard model. This includes leptons ...

Matter can be both wave and particle. If you take the particle route, these subatomic particles are what you could say the universe and everything in it is made of. There are many ways to further ...

Don Lincon, a senior scientist at the U.S. particle physics laboratory Fermilab, describes bosons as “puppies of the subatomic world” because you can have an unlimited number of bosons in the ...

In a recent collaboration, Turbotech, Safran, and Air Liquide teamed up to validate the feasibility of using liquid hydrogen to power a turbine engine for light aircraft. Nearly a year ago to this ...
