It is of interest to note the very different rôle played by the electrons in the outer and inner atom. In the former case, the electrons arrange themselves at a distance from the nucleus, controlled no doubt mainly by the charge on the nucleus and the interaction of their own fields. In the case of the nucleus, the electron forms a very close and powerful combination with the positively charged units and, as far as we know, there is a region just outside the nucleus where no electron is in stable equilibrium.” “On present views, the neutral hydrogen atom is regarded as a nucleus of unit charge with an electron attached at a distance, and the spectrum of hydrogen is ascribed to the movements of this distant electron.” “Under some conditions, however, it may be possible for an electron to combine much more closely with the H nucleus, forming a kind of neutral doublet. Such an atom would have very novel properties. Its external field would be practically zero, except very close to the nucleus, and in consequence it should be able to move freely through matter. Its presence would probably be difficult to detect by the spectroscope, and it may be impossible to contain it in a sealed vessel.

  • 10 Years of Success Stories with the EPS Historic Sites
    PrimaPagina N. 87 - Marzo 2021 EDITORIALE Editorial 10 years of success stories with the EPS Historic Sites L. Cifarelli 30-03-2021 http://www.primapagina.sif.it/article/1273 The Historic Site programme of the European Physical Society (EPS) dates back to 2011, having been established under my presidency ten years ago. The idea was to honor and commemorate with the Historic Site (HS) award places in Europe, or even outside geographical Europe, that are important for the development and the history of physics. Sites with national or European/international significance to physics and its history can be considered for this distinction, namely places (laboratories, buildings, institutions, universities, towns etc.) associated with an event, discovery, research or body of work, by one or more individuals, that made long lasting contributions to physics. Nominations are open throughout the year from the EPS website and reviewed 2-3 times/year by the HS Committee. The EPS works with the nominators to obtain local authorisations for placing a plaque and in organising an official inauguration ceremony. Through March 2021, over 90 proposals were received, almost all of them approved, and 55 EPS Historic Sites have been inaugurated until now in more than 20 different Countries. The present EPS HS Committee includes Goran Djordjevic (Serbia), Ursel Fantz (Germany), Alain Fontaine (France), Jim Hough (UK) and myself. There are two observers, one for the American Physical Society (APS), whose similar Historic Sites programme inspired that of the EPS, and one from the EPS Young Minds (YM) Committee. The Chair of the Committee is Karl Grandin (Sweden), also Chair of the EPS History of Physics (HoP) Group.

  • Common Homebrew Off-Flavors & How to Fix Them
    Common Homebrew Off-Flavors & How to Fix Them 1. Skunk Skunky and rubbery flavors or aromas in homebrew can be signs of “light-struck” homebrew. This quality is typically never desired in any style of beer. Beer becomes light-struck when the isohumulone bittering compounds in hops come into contact and react with specific wavelengths of light. Skunky aroma can also be caused by using Cluster hops for late boil additions. To prevent light-stricken beer in the future, use brown bottles when packaging and store bottles out of the light. In some instances, it only takes a matter of seconds for the reaction to occur and start instilling the undesirable skunk off-flavor. 2. Solvent Also described as “hot” or high in fusel alcohol qualities, solvent-y brew is often characterized by an unpleasant heat from alcohol, and in some cases a burning sensation on the palate. It can be perceived in flavor, aroma and mouth feel. In some stronger beer styles, perceivable alcohol is expected at certain levels. “Hot” beer can be caused by fermenting too warm, not using enough healthy yeast or simply the beer being young. To address solvent-y beers, first try simply setting the flawed beer aside and giving it time. Sometimes beers need longer aging periods to round out flavors and aromas. If time does not fix this issue, you can take measures to prevent this from happening next time you brew the recipe. Depending on what your brew day notes dictate, consider cooler fermentation temperatures, more viable yeast cells or even a different yeast strain altogether.
