The researchers used Coulomb excitation, a method where atomic nuclei are excited through electromagnetic interactions without involving the nuclear strong force. "Coulomb excitation is ...

"Coulomb explosion imaging involves irradiating a molecule with intense X-ray pulses, which knock out electrons," explains Till Jahnke, Professor of Experimental Atomic and Molecular Physics at ...

The molecular roaming mechanism represents a significant advance over the traditional "Coulomb explosion" theory. It shows that, in some cases, ionized molecules do not immediately separate but ...

Charge is a property of a body which experiences a force in an electric field. Charge is measured in coulombs (C). Since electrons are so small and one electron will not have much of an effect ...

Since electrons are so small and one electron will not have much of an effect anywhere, it is more useful to refer to packages of electrons. One coulomb of charge is a package equivalent to ...
