I have been a long time viewer, fan of the Technology, Engineering, Design (TED) website, and would like to know if physicists who conduct serious experiments to verify existing theories either have used or were aware of the Allosphere, a three story metal sphere in an echo free chamber, a large dynamically varying digital microscope.
The most interesting parts of the talk, at 3:20, discuss a new bond for transparent solar cells, at 4:10, showing the superposition of an electron in a hydrogen atom in the lower 3 orbits, hearing and seeing the electron flow, the white dots showing probability waves, at 5:20, a single electron spin.
I am an engineer, not a serious physicist, but believe in first principals, from the "bottom up".
I genuinely appreciate the serious discussions/debates that take place here.
Any discussion this thread generates is appreciated.
I had to chuckle a bit before posting this when reviewing the closed topics list, I think this piece of technology does not qualify as being on the "fringe"...
