TL;DR Summary
I am looking for a device similar to a Crookes radiometer but using the photoelectric effect.
Physics news on Phys.org
Probably nor.
Do you understand why a radiometer turns in the directgion it does?, (White side forward) That's our starting point.

Thread 'Quantum behaviour of an electron around a positively charged sphere'

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
