For the first time, scientists have successfully mapped the shape of an electron while it moves through a solid. This ...

This is an artist view of the shape of an electron in a high-temperature superconductor, which was measured in the work by Dalla Torre et al. The blue and red spheres represent Copper and Oxygen atoms ...

A new technique could one day provide the most precise measurement yet of the roundness of an electron, scientists say. That measurement, in turn, could help scientists test extensions of the standard ...
