• Kikuchi lines, formed in diffraction patterns by diffusely scattered electrons, are useful tools in electron microscopy of crystalline and nanocrystalline materials?
• KATRIN is an experiment to determine the mass of the neutrino by measuring the energies of electrons given off from the beta decay of tritium?
• harpoon reactions are chemical reactions that take place faster than predicted by collision theory because an electron is "thrown" from one molecule towards the other?
• ATIC, a balloon-borne detector flying over Antarctica, recently found excess cosmic ray electrons that might provide evidence for dark matter consisting of Kaluza-Klein particles?
• German physicist Walter Gerlach helped prove the fact that electrons spin?

Facts on topics related to Electron

Atom

• after the destructive Byzantine civil war of 1341–1347, the treasury of the Byzantine Empire contained "nothing but the atoms of Epicurus"?

Quark

• light front holographic methods were originally found by mapping the spatial quark distribution in a proton to a higher dimensional warped space (example pictured)?
• the discovery of the J/Ψ particle in 1974 earned two physicists the Nobel prize as it confirmed the idea that baryonic matter (such as the nuclei of atoms) is made out of quarks?

Neutrino

• ANTARES, a neutrino telescope under construction in the Mediterranean Sea, will find neutrinos from outer space by looking downward, into the Earth?
• KATRIN is an experiment to determine the mass of the neutrino by measuring the energies of electrons given off from the beta decay of tritium?

Neutron

• fast neutron therapy utilizes neutrons, typically with more than twenty megaelectronvolts, to treat diseases like cancer?
