I'm a genius

Ok, you know there's a nucleous, and around the nucleous there's the electron cloud and electrons.. Well in the space between the nucleus and the 1st electron, is it nothingness? Whats there?
 
I hardly think this question makes you a genius...a genius would have checked google.


Now the man that invented sex HE was a true genius!
 
Yes, there is nothing there between the electrons and the nucleus. In fact, there is a whole lot of nothingness between atoms in a solid, just look at Rutherford's gold-foil experiment where he shot alpha particles at the gold-foil.

Ether. Or was it phlostigon? I just can't remember...

So what's nothingness? Vacum?

space.

like between the earth and the moon, except without the nitrogen.

Nope, just empty space. I would argue against it being a "vacuum" since you are within the confines of the atom. It is just empty space.

Oh. How the hell do you keep up with every single thread's subject? And remember the inside joke, AND the author. I wouldn't know what he was talking about. What's a taint anyways? Since he got burned in his thread?

A genius wouldn't have to ask.
 
Actually, what you have there is space swirling with the activity of virtual particles and lowly-probable electrons and nucleons.

Keep in mind that elementary particles are not like little billiard balls bouncing around everywhere. They do not have "edges," if you will. There is no definite place where a particle "stops" and empty space (or another particle) begins. Rather, there are places where the probability of a particle's existence become so low as to be negligible.

Anybody with a more thorough understanding is welcome to clarify further.

I participated in that thread. I would have no idea what the others were talking about if I didn't.

P.S.: UD is your friend.

Why don't you read the thread to find out what it is.
