Why removal of other electrons cause binding energy increase

I'm talking about the chemical shift.

In XPS test, oxidation leads to the increase of binding energy. This is determined by:
1. attraction between nuclear and the electron
2. shielding effect from outer-shell electrons

My question is :
What does shielding effect mean? Shield what? The positive charge in nuclear attract 1s electron. Also, 1s electron will be repelled by outer shell electrons. It seems both of these two forces have the same direction.

I'm a bit confused despite having understood this ... can anyone help?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
the nuclear attract electron with direction from outer to inner, and also, the outer-shield electron repels inner electron with the same direction. As a result, the inner electron will goes outer when outer electron removes, thus the binding energy seems to decrease.
I don't know where I'm wrong.
 
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...
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...
