Can a capillary pressure lift a load?

The problem I pose is about an application of the Pascal law and capillary action. It is based on a plot which I describe hereafter.Imagine a one side sealed cylinder with a piston on the other...

Can Larmor precession be observed directly (no transitions like NMR)?

When a spin possessing particle is in magnetic field B the spin 'rotates' around B. By example electron with spin on X will rotate perpendicular to B. But is this real? Can it be observed? Does...

Does the energy of the photon change in Beth 1936 experiment?

When a left (right) polarized photon reflects from a birefringent plate it changes its polarization to right (left). The internal orbital momentum of the photon thus changes by 2hbar. The orbital...

How can you explain a possible inconsistency with the Bohr atom model?

It is well known that Bohr model is not totally right. But I recently discovered a very curious inconsistency (if I am right) which I haven't seen explained anywhere. The first postulate of Bohr...

What happens to an electron and its partner from an EPR pair in magnetic field?

I tried to find something about an EPR pair and magnetic field on the google but surprisingly couldn't find anything. In more details the question is: One of the electrons of an EPR pair...

Any suggestions on the concept of diffraction from the viewpoint of Quantum Mechanics?

It is well known that classical wave theory (and EM theory) doesn't have problems whatsoever to explain (single slit) diffraction. But as EM radiation is in fact always registered as a packet of...

Is it possible to recombine an electron with the ion of an atom and receive the atom in the basic (lowest) energy level in around 90 % of the cases?

What are the conditions to achieve this? Is it sufficient that the relative velocity between ion and electron and hence the subsequent kinetic energy is below excitation energy to next energy...

How can I make a gauge plate for STM?

I need a calibration (gauge) plate in order to check a scanning tunneling microscope. For that means I would need two atoms isolated from other atoms in an area of 50 nm (or more) radius on a...
