Sorry, i have problems to understand this rotation. What's the base of the detectors? Something like an axis in a 3d-coord-system? A rotation of a vector around an axis doesn't create a plane, but a cone.?.?

Can LIGO only detect sources that are above this detection system? Or can LIGO also detect sources that are exactly on the other side of the Earth?

I would have a question to LIGO. How can LIGO detect the source of a gravity wave? It's a 2-dimensional detector, which has a certain length and a certain width, but no height. How does LIGO know the direction and distance of the source, and if this source is on the one side of LIGO or exactly...

Well, i would like to try a summary: Removing the electrons of an atom creates an ion, properties of the nucleus doesn't change. But there are differences between an atom with electrons and the same atom without electrons. Electrons are removed from atoms to achieve a higher charge, which has...

I like this forum, i always get answers, thank you :) Maybe the last question in this topic. If it isn't necessary to remove the electrons in a nuclear reactor, then it is also not necessary to remove them in A-Bombs. Is this correct?

Thank you all. Are there any situations where i have to remove the electrons in order to be able to conduct a certain experiment? At collision tests like in Cern electrons are always removed? Do i have to remove all electrons, if i want to split a nucleus? Or do i have to remove them, if i...

Electrons do not participate in the strong interaction. Thank you, mfb. What are the known differences in properties or behaviour between an atom WITH its atoms and the same atom WITHOUT its atoms? DrClaude has already mentioned this "spectrum". What does this mean? And are there some further...

what you mean by "properties." Well, it's certainly possible to measure some different values. And with the help of these values you can describe an atom. For example the strong force inside a nucleus: If we could measure the strong force inside and outside the nucleus, could we notice a...

hello everybody :) Let's assume that we could steal all electrons of an atom. What would happen? How would the atom change its properties? Could we measure different values?

Some days ago, i read, that there is a plastic, that should be capable of protecting from interstellar radiation. I would be interested in further information about this plastic. Someone here who has some material, i could take a look at?
