Atomic structure
Atomic structure, computer artwork. Schematic representation of the structure of the atom. At the centre of the model is the nucleus, made up of a tightly packed cluster of protons and neutrons. In this classical model, the nucleus is orbited by electrons with defined orbits. Modern quantum physics has shown, however, that is impossible to locate the exact position of electrons around the nucleus

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate beauty of atomic structure. Through computer artwork, a schematic representation of the atom's composition is displayed. At its core lies the nucleus, depicted as a tightly packed cluster composed of protons and neutrons. Orbiting around this central nucleus are electrons, following defined orbits in this classical model. The image serves as a reminder that our understanding of atomic structure has evolved over time. While this classical model provides an insightful visualization, modern quantum physics has revealed the impossibility of precisely locating electrons' positions around the nucleus. The combination of patterns and concepts within this illustration highlights both its scientific and aesthetic appeal. The repeating nature of atomic structures becomes apparent, emphasizing their fundamental role in shaping matter at a microscopic level. As we delve into particle physics and explore theoretical frameworks, such as Bohr's atomic model depicted here, we gain deeper insights into the mysteries hidden within atoms. This thought-provoking visual representation invites us to contemplate not only the physical aspects but also conceptual ideas surrounding atomic structure. Science Photo Library continues to provide remarkable images like these that bridge artistry with scientific exploration – capturing moments where knowledge meets creativity without mentioning any commercial use or affiliation with any company.
