    He then called up his associate Fritz London and they worked out the details of the theory over the course of the night. [5] Later, Linus Pauling used the pair bonding ideas of Lewis together with Heitler–London theory to develop two other key concepts in VB theory: resonance (1928) and orbital hybridization (1930).

    A diagram showing the relative energies of the states is shown below, and it can be seen that there exist two distinct transitions from the CH 4 state with 4 equivalent bonds to the two CH 4 + states. [5] Two distinct states for CH 4 + exist (A 1 and T 2), both of which result from the ionization of CH 4. This gives rise to the two unique peaks ...

    Recent research has shown [7] that the composite system postulate (tensor product postulate) can be derived from the state postulate (Postulate I) and the measurement postulates (Postulates II); Moreover, it has also been shown [8] that the measurement postulates (Postulates II) can be derived from "unitary quantum mechanics", which includes ...

    The bond angle for water is 104.5°. Valence shell electron pair repulsion ( VSEPR ) theory ( / ˈ v ɛ s p ər , v ə ˈ s ɛ p ər / VESP -ər , [ 1 ] : 410 və- SEP -ər [ 2 ] ) is a model used in chemistry to predict the geometry of individual molecules from the number of electron pairs surrounding their central atoms.

    In the fundamental branches of modern physics, namely general relativity and its widely applicable subset special relativity, as well as relativistic quantum mechanics and relativistic quantum field theory, the Lorentz transformation is the transformation rule under which all four-vectors and tensors containing physical quantities transform from one frame of reference to another.

    Slow motion computer simulation of the black hole binary system GW150914 as seen by a nearby observer, during 0.33 s of its final inspiral, merge, and ringdown.The star field behind the black holes is being heavily distorted and appears to rotate and move, due to extreme gravitational lensing, as spacetime itself is distorted and dragged around by the rotating black holes.
