    These tiny dots - atoms, they are actually made of emptiness. What you see as a dot - is an area where electrons orbit over nucleus, where nucleus in turn is several hundred times smaller than the maximum orbit. There is no "matter" at all - only energy fields.

      But if enough of the atoms hang out together they make up some kind of matter (onion) right? So if the atoms are empty and the emptiness contained by an energy field how can the onion exist so that we see it? Are we/everything just an energy field the brain interprets as a thing (person/onion) based on how the brain is programmed to perceive energy?

I'm a grad student studying electron microscopy myself, and imaging single-atoms is quite difficult due to sample syntehsis and beam-specimen interactions. In my experience of microscopy of gold nanoparticles (supported on a thin film of carbon), single atoms are briefly visible and tend to agglomerate and form tiny clusters (to minimize surface energy). So isolating one for long enough to obtain a stable image with high signal-to-noise ratio is not trivial.

    You're not seeing the actual atoms. You're seeing the electron vibrations of the atoms. The atom is mostly empty space with a nucleus. And that nucleus is 100K times smaller than the width of the atom. So the 3D model is a representation of the representational image of the outer electron shell of a bunch of platinum atoms. Most likely using a modified electron microscope. But it's still cool.

    Is it possible that quarks are actually their own univers just like ours?
    Imagine you could grow to the size of the observable universe and the moment you look around you start to see faint images of say someone's yard from an atoms perspective.
    Example:
    If ant man could shrink infinitely he'd fall through the multiverse but he wouldn't technically be falling he's getting smaller while existence is expanding and getting bigger at the same time.

There's the scanning tunnel microscope which shows them as small spheres, but I'm not sure it's possible to actually see the proton and the electron that orbits it in a hydrogen atom. The way our eyes work is by picking up visible light waves that reflect off of something, visible light couldn't reflect off of a proton or an electron.

      We are talking about *electron* microscopes here, and by "seeing" we mean scanning a target with an electron beam, then detecting the transmitted beam or the interactions with the sample's surface, and transforming that into an image on a screen, which our eyes can see.
      The minimum wavelength of visible light (400 nm) means the theoretical limit of the resolution of a light microscope is around 200 nm, much more than the size of an atom.

      So yes, we *are* seeing atoms here.
      Granted, it's somewhat second-hand, because we see, with our eyes, the images of them that are produced by this contraption; but that's qualitatively no different from looking at something through an ordinary light microscope.

    • @DanielRamirez-vm3be
      @DanielRamirez-vm3be 8 лет назад

      Another way to see them would be using x-rays or gamma rays instead of visible light, cause them have their wavelengths closer to the scales of an atom and a nucleus respectfully, and let the computer do the work transforming the data into visible light, like the infrared images of the Hubble
