...where the electron behaves and misbehaves as it will, where the forces tie themselves up into knots of atoms and come united... — D. H. Lawrence Copy Share Image
Two hydrogen atoms meet. One says, 'I've lost my electron.' The other says 'Are you sure?' The first replies, 'Yes, I'm positive.' — Nikhil Saluja Copy Share Image
Nobody has ever seen an electron. Nor a thought. You can't see a thought, you can't measure, weigh, nor taste it- but… — Robert A. Heinlein Copy Share Image
The electron is a theory we use; it is so useful in understanding the way nature works that we can almost call… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
We had to understand things like why the top quark was so heavy and the electron is so light. The Higgs is… — Fabiola Gianotti Copy Share Image
The electron, as it leaves the atom, crystallises out of Schrödinger's mist like a genie emerging from his bottle. — Arthur Eddington Copy Share Image
The electron is a theory. But the theory is so good we can almost consider them real. — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
We compel the electron to assume a definite position. We ourselves produce the results of the measurement. — Dean Radin Copy Share Image
“So odd a pair, she and he. A duet in code and electron. Age and youth and cynicism and hope. He is… — Jay Kristoff Copy Share Image
In size the electron bears the same relation to an atom that a baseball bears to the earth. Or, as Sir Oliver… — Waldemar Kaempffert Copy Share Image
Now if this electron is displaced from its equilibrium position, a force that is directly proportional to the displacement restores it like… — Pieter Zeeman Copy Share Image
The electron can no longer be conceived as a single, small granule of electricity; it must be associated with a wave, and… — Louis de Broglie Copy Share Image
I always imagined myself somehow as an electron around some atom, and you're just, like, bouncing around and spinning. There was a… — Tom Freston Copy Share Image
“It’s one thing when you plug into a socket in the wall and electrons flow,” said Bob Kahn. “It’s another thing when… — Katie Hafner Copy Share Image
There was a time when we wanted to be told what an electron is. The question was never answered. No familiar conceptions… — Arthur Eddington Copy Share Image
“The existence of both ( electron and pebble ) depends upon the context created by our thoughts, our language, our theories, and… — Felix Alba-Juez Copy Share Image
Indeed, nothing more beautifully simplifying has ever happened in the history of science than the whole series of discoveries culminating about 1914… — Robert Andrews Millikan Copy Share Image
It is a fascinating fact that father and son have given the most striking evidence for the apparently contradictory properties of the… — Max Born Copy Share Image
“But, in 1927, Clinton Davisson and Lester Germer in the US and George Thomson in Scotland demonstrated that electrons could interfere with… — Marcus Chown Copy Share Image
“We create models to explain nature, but the models wind u gate-crashing nature and driving away the original inhabitants. In my lecturing… — David Mitchell Copy Share Image
“One of the most curious consequences of quantum physics is that a particle like an electron can seemingly be in more than… — Marcus du Sautoy Copy Share Image
“Also unlike a planet, an electron—if excited by heat or light—can leap from its low-energy shell to an empty, high-energy shell. The… — Sam Kean Copy Share Image
“Take this neat little equation here. It tells me all the ways an electron can make itself comfortable in or around an… — Richard Feynman Copy Share Image
From that night on, the electron-up to that time largely the plaything of the scientist-had clearly entered the field as a potent… — Robert Andrews Millikan Copy Share Image
“The wave quality of light is the same as that of the electron. The wave determines the probable location of the photon… — Marcus du Sautoy Copy Share Image
“If, years later, I do use the slit detector to observe which way the electron went, it will mean that many years… — Marcus du Sautoy Copy Share Image
I wanna be your girlfriend more than an electron wants to attach to a proton. — Emma Stone Copy Share Image
This is our world now The world of the electron and the switch, the beauty of the baud. — Loyd Blankenship Copy Share Image
“Fine Structure Constant: Fundamental numerical constant of atomic physics and quantum electrodynamics, defined as the square of the charge of the electron… — Steven Weinberg Copy Share Image
In the absence of a magnetic field the period of all these oscillations is the same. But as soon as the electron… — Pieter Zeeman Copy Share Image
It's good to meet you, Dr. Banner. Your work on anti-electron collisions is unparalleled. And I'm a huge fan of the way… — Joss Whedon Copy Share Image
“Werner feels he is gazing down into the circuitry of an enormous radio, each soldier down there an electron flowing single file… — Anthony Doerr Copy Share Image
