Electrons exhibit both wave
... The explanation of classical physics: Light is an electromagnetic wave that is produced when an electric charge vibrates. (Strictly speaking, "vibrates" means any change in how the charge moves --- speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction.) Now recall that heat is just the kinetic energy of ...

... We first demonstrate the existence of peaks in the recurrence spectrum of H at actions shorter than the shortest allowed closed orbit. Because the potential is purely Coulombic, there can be no scattering from one orbit to another; any effects are the result of motion in the separable Hamiltonian of ...
