where exactly neutrino located in an atom? how many neutrinos are there in a hydrogen atom?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
There are no neutrinos in atoms. Neutrinos are the product of radioactive decay or nuclear reactions.
 
Are you talking about nuetrons?

If you were talking about nuetrons, than they are located in the nucleus of an atom. There are 0 in a hydrogen atom, and occasionally 1.
 
Neutrinos are pesky fellows. They don't like to sit still anywhere, let alone in atom, because they are weakly interacting. They get created in certain reactions and then fly off through almost anything.
 

Thread 'Stability of persistent currents in superconductors regardless of temperature'

From the BCS theory of superconductivity is well known that the superfluid density smoothly decreases with increasing temperature. Annihilated superfluid carriers become normal and lose their momenta on lattice atoms. So if we induce a persistent supercurrent in a ring below Tc and after that slowly increase the temperature, we must observe a decrease in the actual supercurrent, because the density of electron pairs and total supercurrent momentum decrease. However, this supercurrent...

Thread 'Instantaneous dipole moment and orbitals'

Hi. I have got question as in title. How can idea of instantaneous dipole moment for atoms like, for example hydrogen be consistent with idea of orbitals? At my level of knowledge London dispersion forces are derived taking into account Bohr model of atom. But we know today that this model is not correct. If it would be correct I understand that at each time electron is at some point at radius at some angle and there is dipole moment at this time from nucleus to electron at orbit. But how...
