Tuberculosis, the world's deadliest infectious disease, is estimated to infect around 10 million people each year, and kills ...

This 'solar system' model of the atom is the way that most people think about atoms today. It is known as the Rutherford-Bohr model of atomic structure. The neutron was difficult to discover ...

MIT physicists have captured the first images of individual atoms freely interacting in space. The pictures reveal ...

Such molecules would be suited to acting as quantum bits, or qubits, the basic unit of information in quantum systems. But ...

We have assumed an angle of 36 between adjacent residues in the same chain, so that the structure repeats after 10 residues on each chain, that is, after 34 A. The distance of a phosphorus atom ...

Under ultracold conditions, bosons form a curious state of matter known as a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC), in which all the ...

So convincing is this model that after only twelve years it is known no longer as “the atomic model of Rutherford and Bohr,” but is simply taken for granted as “the atom.” In this ...
