The CODATA recommended value is −e/m e = −1.758 820 008 38 (55) × 10 11 C⋅kg −1. [2] CODATA refers to this as the electron charge-to-mass quotient, but ratio is still commonly used. There are two other common ways of measuring the charge-to-mass ratio of an electron, apart from Thomson and Dunnington's methods.
The electric field is perpendicular, locally, to the equipotential surface of the conductor, and zero inside; its flux πa 2 ·E, by Gauss's law equals πa 2 ·σ/ε 0. Thus, σ = ε 0 E. In problems involving conductors set at known potentials, the potential away from them is obtained by solving Laplace's equation, either analytically or ...
Another geometric proof proceeds as follows: We start with the figure shown in the first diagram below, a large square with a smaller square removed from it. The side of the entire square is a, and the side of the small removed square is b. The area of the shaded region is . A cut is made, splitting the region into two rectangular pieces, as ...
In condensed matter physics and crystallography, the static structure factor (or structure factor for short) is a mathematical description of how a material scatters incident radiation. The structure factor is a critical tool in the interpretation of scattering patterns ( interference patterns) obtained in X-ray, electron and neutron ...
The rms charge radius is a measure of the size of an atomic nucleus, particularly the proton distribution. The proton radius is about one femtometre = 10−15 metre. It can be measured by the scattering of electrons by the nucleus. Relative changes in the mean squared nuclear charge distribution can be precisely measured with atomic spectroscopy .

Yesterday the actor, director and author took to Instagram to share an absolutely beautiful tribute to his adorable Pomeranian/Chihuahua mix named Bubbles for her birthday. This was particularly ...
For quick approximations, it is enough to remember that doubling the distance reduces illumination to one quarter; or similarly, to halve the illumination increase the distance by a factor of 1.4 (the square root of 2), and to double illumination, reduce the distance to 0.7 (square root of 1/2). When the illuminant is not a point source, the ...
