The Orbitron dates back to 2002 but didn't change much until the end of 2020 when the demise of Flash for viewing movie files on the web forced updates. an atom has many orbitals, each of which has a fixed size and shape and can hold up to two electrons. A subdivision of the available space within an atom for an electron to orbit the nucleus. (Phys) Space in an atom occupied by an electron. A device for manipulating atoms or subatomic particles, accelerator. All will be fixed shortly but hopefully there will be something of use here and Flash is no longer required.Īdapted from Encarta World English Dictionary -tron suffix. It is not finished - there are still some missing images, missing videos, errors in orbital names, many typos, incorrect labels, no hybrid orbitals, and no molecular orbitals. This version of The Orbitron is a partial rewrite of the 2002 version of The Orbitron.
