Researchers have made a discovery that will help with the search for electric dipole moments in atoms, and could contribute to new theories of particle physics such as supersymmetry. An international ...

SP hybridization occurs when one s orbital and one p orbital from the same atom combine to form two new orbitals of equal energy. These new orbitals are linearly oriented 180 degrees apart, leading to ...

Measuring zero: scientists have lowered the previous upper limit of the neutron’s electric dipole moment by 40%. (Courtesy: IOP Publishing) For more than 60 years, physicists have been searching for a ...
