Bohr turned to Planck's quantum theory to explain the stability of most ... absorbs or gives off energy (as in light or heat), the electron jumps to higher or lower orbits. Bohr published these ...

At the time, he and others believed a handful of compounds must have these bonds. Electron theory was just a few decades old, and scientists were chipping away at the nature of atoms in fits and ...

THE great interest with which the electron theory of metals has been received by physicists is due chiefly to two reasons. The first is the practical importance of metals and their great variety ...

Density functional theory (DFT) is a cornerstone tool of modern physics, chemistry, and engineering used to explore the ...

In a recent essay, scientists challenge the prevailing genetic-focused model of cancer, advocating for a shift towards more ...

After struggling with it, however, Bohr developed complementarity theory. This stated that there was a dual nature to things -- an electron was a wave and a particle, for example -- but we could ...

Pitt researcher Karl Johnson and scholar Priyanka Bholanath Shukla collaborate to help strengthen an essential electron theory ...

Two experiment collaborations, the g2p and EG4 collaborations, combined their complementary data on the proton's inner ...

The electron is in fact given a complete outfit ... it seemed better to expose the theory to criticism at once, in case some serious objection can be made against the whole principle of it.
