... Atoms are made of a central core containing a collection of protons and neutrons. Almost all of the mass (the proper word for "weight") of the atom is contained in the nucleus. Surrounding the nucleus is a cloud of electrons whose number equals that of the number of protons. Do ...

There is a difference between knowing how to work something and how it works. For flashlights, working one requires making sure you have batteries, that the lights work, and knowing how to turn them on. But how does an LED flashlight work? An LED, or
For a normal distribution with an average of 0 m/s, most of the particles are going to be stationary. But what about the kinetic energy? I will assume all the particles have the same mass so that the only thing that matters is the velocity. Here I square these speeds and call it kin...

Antigen-specific cytotoxic CD8 T cells are extremely effective in controlling tumor growth and have been the focus of immunotherapy approaches. We leverage in silico tools to investigate whether the occurrence of mutations in proteins previously describe
Atomic Theory:This principle states that all matter is composed of atoms, the smallest units of an element that retain the element's chemical properties. Atoms combine in specific ways to form molecules and compounds. Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure:Atoms bond together through ionic, covalen...

Electrons have a negative charge, which means only that they move away from other negatively charged matter (other electrons) and are drawn to positively charged matter (protons, often ones in the nuclei of atoms). But photons are units (packets of energy) of an electromagnetic wave. They are...
and yield analysis. But the efficient simulation of a centimeter-size metalens containing nanometer-size meta-atoms — and the subsequent simulation of that metalens inside of an optical system that may be tens, hundreds, or thousands of centimeters in size — is no small feat. Simulation tools...
