I stumbled across this on youtube and wondered if someone could explain what we are actually looking at here.
Looks amazing!

What Happens When Gold Atoms Merge in This Fascinating Video?
Click For Summary
SUMMARY
This discussion centers on a YouTube video showcasing the real-time merging of gold atoms, as presented in the paper "0708.1060" from arXiv. Participants express fascination with the visual representation of atomic behavior, particularly the unexpected outcomes observed during the merging process. The video serves as a supplementary resource for understanding atomic interactions and the complexities involved in such phenomena.
PREREQUISITES- Understanding of atomic structure and behavior
- Familiarity with materials science concepts
- Basic knowledge of video analysis techniques
- Awareness of scientific research methodologies
- Explore the implications of atomic merging in materials science
- Research the techniques used in atomic-scale imaging
- Investigate the findings in the paper "0708.1060" on arXiv
- Learn about the applications of gold in nanotechnology
Researchers, materials scientists, and educators interested in atomic interactions and visual representations of scientific phenomena will benefit from this discussion.

I thought I might add this video (real time) of bunches of gold atoms merging, in this thread for avoidance of thread proliferation, if you like the top one you might like this one too;-
The ending is, errr..., 'unexpected'. :) Does it actually merge, or maybe it was ejected out of the screen?
