For all we know electrons and quarks are elementary particles, which means that in no experiment has there anything like a structure of these particles been seen. They appear point-like, unlike the proton, neutron, nucleus and atom that have sizes that can be measured. It is, of course, entirely possible that particles that are called elementary today shall turn out to be composite; let it be said though that they have been probed quite extensively.... The aim is to know all about them, their properties and their interactions. The idea is that from this nuclear physics, atomic physics, chemistry, in fact, the whole physical world derives. Thus particles and their interactions are the very fundamentals of nature. That is the view now. An elementary particle physicist studies primarily these elementary particles and not the larger structures such as protons, nuclei or atoms. 1, record 2, English, - elementary%20particle%20physicist

The term atomic physics is often associated with nuclear power and nuclear bombs, due to the synonymous use of atomic and nuclear in standard English. However, physicists distinguish between atomic physics — which deals with the atom as a system consisting of a nucleus and electrons — and nuclear physics, which considers atomic nuclei alone. 2, record 15, English, - atomic%20physics

Tritium is a hydrogen atom that has 2 neutrons in the nucleus, in addition to its single proton, giving it an atomic weight near 3. Although tritium can be a gas, its most common form is in water, because, like non-radioactive hydrogen, radioactive tritium reacts with oxygen to form water. Tritium replaces one of the stable hydrogens in the water molecule, H2O, and is called tritiated water. Like H2O, tritiated water is colorless and odorless. Tritium has a half-life of 12. 3 years and emits a very weak beta particle. 4, record 16, English, - tritiated%20water

"atomic mass unit": For an element, it is the number which specifies how many times heavier one atom of the element is than one atom of hydrogen. The atomic mass unit is the unit of measure of the mass particle (atom, molecule, ion, etc.). The numerical value of the mass of a particle in amu,s is identical with the older atomic weight.

L'établissement de tables de poids atomiques [...]. [...] J. Stas [...] choisit, en 1850, comme unité de référence la seizième partie du poids atomique de l'oxygène. À partir de 1920, les physiciens prirent comme étalon la masse de l'isotope 160, à laquelle ils attribuèrent la valeur 16,000 00 g tandis que les chimistes continuaient à prendre la valeur 16,000 00 pour le poids atomique de l'oxygène naturel [...]. Mais, les deux échelles ne concordaient pas exactement et la valeur numérique du poids atomique était plus petite dans l'échelle chimique [atomic weight unit] que dans l'échelle physique [atomic mass unit], ce qui entraînait des confusions. [...] on décida [...] que l'échelle chimique basée sur la valeur 16,000 00 pour l'oxygène naturel devait être abandonnée. En 1961, les Unions internationales de physique pure et appliquée et de chimie pure et appliquée prirent la décision de recommander une modification de l'échelle des poids atomiques et d'attribuer un poids atomique de 12 à l'isotope du carbone 12 [indice]C, ce qui nécessitait de recalculer les tables de poids atomiques sur la base de 12 [indice]C =12. 4, record 18, French, - unit%C3%A9%20de%20masse%20atomique

The moderators consist of nuclei which are light and don’t absorb neutrons. The neutrons hit the moderator, and bounce off, but in the process they lose a little energy. After enough such bounces, the neutrons are no faster than expected from their temperature. They are called "thermal neutrons" to reflect the fact that they have slowed down to thermal velocities. In summary: Fast neutrons bounce off the moderator and become thermal (slow) neutrons. 5, record 27, English, - thermal%20neutron

The shells are usually designated by number, though letter symbols have been used, i.e., K...Q. The laws of physics limit the number of electrons in the various shells as follows: 2 in the first (K), 8 in the second (L), 18 in the third (M), and 32 in the fourth (N).

Atomic weight. The nucleus of an atom is made up of neutrons and protons. The total mass of the neutrons and protons along with the electrons gives the mass of the atom.... Because this value is so small, a new unit of weight, the atomic weight unit(awu), is often used to express the weights of atoms. It is defined as 1/12 the weight of carbon atom.

Atomic structure and properties... A more meaningful definition of "atom" can be made in terms of the internal structure, which has been well understood at least since 1927. In these terms the atom is the unit of matter that contains a small, dense, positively charged nucleus surrounded by sufficient negative electrons to make the whole electrically neutral. Structure. All atoms are about the same size, and this fact is a clue to the nature of their structure. The atomic diameter is about 2 X 10[ superscript]-8 cm(2 hundred-millionths of a centimeter). Since this is only 1/1000 of the wavelength of visible light, atoms cannot be seen in the ordinary sense, even with microscope. 3, record 34, English, - atomic%20structure

Structure de l'atome [...] L'atome est composé de trois éléments de base : le proton, le neutron et l'électron. Ils sont groupés en : a) Un noyau, très dense, où est concentrée presque toute la masse de l'atome, et qui est formé de nucléons de masses très voisines (1,66.10[exposant]-24g) [...] Ces nucléons sont les protons (P), portant une charge électrique positive (1,6.10[exposant]-19C), et les neutrons (N), sans charge électrique. b) Autour de ce noyau gravitent des électrons [...] en couches successives (K,L,M, ...); à chaque couche correspond un niveau d'énergie [...] La masse de l'électron est environ 1 850 fois plus faible que celle du proton. Le diamètre de l'atome est de l'ordre de 10[exposant]-8 cm, celui du noyau de 10[exposant]-12 cm, c'est-à-dire 10 000 fois plus petit. 3, record 34, French, - structure%20de%20l%27atome

The method by which incident radiation interacts with the medium to cause ionization may be direct or indirect. Electromagnetic radiations (X rays and gamma photons) are indirectly ionizing; that is, they give up their energy in various interactions with cellular molecules, and the energy is then utilized to produce a fast-moving charged particle such as an electron. It is the electron that then secondarily may react with a target molecule. Charged particles, in contrast, strike the tissue or medium and directly react with target molecules, such as oxygen or water. These particulate radiations are directly ionizing radiations. 1, record 35, English, - gamma%20photon

The Brönsted-Lowry acid-base definition.... an acid is a species having a tendency to lose a proton, and a base is a species having a tendency to gain a proton. The term proton means the species H+(the nucleus of the hydrogen atom) rather than the actual hydrogen ions that occur in various solutions; the definition is thus independent of the solvent. 2, record 36, English, - Br%C3%B6nsted%2DLowry%20theory
