That blue, pixelated image, ladies and gentlemen, is the very first image of an atom’s electron orbital structure. In other words, you’re looking at the first picture of an atom’s wave function. Here, ...
In a unique experiment, researchers have clocked how long it takes for an electron to be emitted from an atom. The result is .00000000000000002 seconds, or 20 billionths of a billionth of a second.

MIT scientists develop table-top technique to see inside atoms
Physicists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have discovered a new method that allows researchers to examine ...
A clock based on just a single atom — the simplest clock yet — has now been devised, researchers say. This new device to measure time could help lead to a radically new way to define mass as well, ...
Researchers in the US and China have shown that diffusion at the atomic scale enables long nanowires of crystalline metals to be fabricated using a single-step moulding technique. The nanomoulding ...

The new clock based on a single cesium atom links time to the mass of that atom. As such, not only could atoms be used to measure time, but also time could be used to help define mass. A clock based ...
