Electron diffraction is a powerful analytical technique used to study the atomic structure of materials. It involves the interaction of a beam of electrons with a crystalline sample, resulting in a ...

According to recent measurements by Purdue University physicists, the tiny particle may not be a simple negative point charge, as scientists often describe it. "Science and engineering students have ...

During chemical reactions, atoms in the reacting substances break their bonds and re-arrange, forming different chemical ...

What is the shape of an electron? If you recall pictures from your high school science books, the answer seems quite clear: an electron is a small ball of negative charge that is smaller than an atom.
