Ukrainian scientists first "photographed" the atom

Probably all the publications will be about this now, but I cannot be silent. Scientists from the Kharkov Institute of Physics and Technology presented the first atomic images in the history of science.

To take pictures, scientists used an electron microscope that detects radiation and fields (field-emission electron microscope, FEEM). Physicists sequentially placed tens of carbon atoms in a vacuum chamber and passed through them an electrical discharge of 425 volts. The radiation of the last atom in the chain onto the phosphor screen allowed to obtain an image of a cloud of electrons around the nucleus.

From myself: for the first time in a long time, such news and in it are not American, not Japanese, not Chinese, but our, native Ukrainian scientists. Just heroes. With our funding, the research institutes do something first. All the more so. Just heroes ...

I would like to remind you that in the same institution in 1932, the atomic nucleus was first split .
