Accelerator Particle Particle accelerator Radiation

AI Thread Summary

In particle accelerators, particles emit electromagnetic (EM) waves due to acceleration. However, electrons in atomic orbitals do not radiate because their orbitals represent standing wave configurations, resulting in no net acceleration of charge. This distinction explains the difference in radiation behavior between accelerated particles and electrons in stable atomic states. The clarification resolves the initial confusion regarding radiation in these contexts. Understanding these principles is essential for comprehending the behavior of particles in both accelerators and atomic structures.

HI If in particle accelerator particles radiates EM waves then why electron does not in its orbit.

If you mean to ask why an electron in an atom doesn't radiate, it's because the electron orbitals in an atom are a type of standing wave configuration, which entails no net acceleration of charge.

Thanks doc you have solved the puzzle

Thread 'Thermo Hydrodynamic Effect'

Vídeo: The footage was filmed in real time. The rotor takes advantage of the thermal agitation of the water. The agitation is uniform, so the resultant is zero. When the aluminum cylinders containing frozen water are immersed in the water, about 30% of their surface is in contact with the water, and the rest is thermally insulated by styrofoam. This creates an imbalance in the agitation: the cold side of the water "shrinks," so that the hot side pushes the cylinders toward the cold...
