  2. Nuclear density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_density

    Nuclear density is the density of the nucleus of an atom. For heavy nuclei, it is close to the nuclear saturation density n 0 = 0.15 ± 0.01 {\displaystyle n_{0}=0.15\pm 0.01} nucleons / fm 3 , which minimizes the energy density of an infinite nuclear matter . [ 1 ]

  3. Table of nuclides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_nuclides

    A chart or table of nuclides maps the nuclear, or radioactive, behavior of nuclides, as it distinguishes the isotopes of an element.It contrasts with a periodic table, which only maps their chemical behavior, since isotopes (nuclides that are variants of the same element) do not differ chemically to any significant degree, with the exception of hydrogen.

  4. Shape of the atomic nucleus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape_of_the_atomic_nucleus

    The atomic nucleus is a bound system of protons and neutrons. The spatial extent and shape of the nucleus depend not only on the size and shape of discrete nucleons, but also on the distance between them (the inter-nucleon distance). (Other factors include spin, alignment, orbital motion, and the local nuclear environment (see EMC effect).)

  6. Electric-field screening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric-field_screening

    Let ρ denote the number density of electrons, and φ the electric potential. At first, the electrons are evenly distributed so that there is zero net charge at every point. Therefore, φ is initially a constant as well. We now introduce a fixed point charge Q at the origin. The associated charge density is Qδ(r), where δ(r) is the Dirac ...

  7. Charge density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_density

    In electromagnetism, charge density is the amount of electric charge per unit length, surface area, or volume. Volume charge density (symbolized by the Greek letter ρ) is the quantity of charge per unit volume, measured in the SI system in coulombs per cubic meter (C⋅m −3), at any point in a volume.

  8. Effective nuclear charge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_nuclear_charge

    In an atom with one electron, that electron experiences the full charge of the positive nucleus. In this case, the effective nuclear charge can be calculated by Coulomb's law. [1] However, in an atom with many electrons, the outer electrons are simultaneously attracted to the positive nucleus and repelled by the negatively charged electrons.

  9. Charge number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_number

    In that case, the charge of an ion could be written as =. The charge number in chemistry normally relates to an electric charge. This is a property of specific subatomic atoms. These elements define the electromagnetic contact between the two elements. A chemical charge can be found by using the periodic table.
