My desperation is lessened, however, by some of the more quantum physics theory which seems to suggest that, if at a sub-atomic level quarks can be in two places at once, then logically there must be a parallel universe where NZ were 130 all out and we are about to win.
The goal is to develop a range of areas where they can make improvements, such as new levels of control of semiconductor properties on a near-atomic level to light mixing and heat management.
What did happen was that the Enola Gay, an American B-29 bomber, dropped a uranium-based atomic bomb on the Japanese city of Hiroshima.
Underscoring the concerns are calls by hawkish South Korean and Japanese politicians to consider whether their governments should pursue nuclear weapons after North Korea began a series of atomic-weapons tests in 2006.
The Chernobyl Forum -- a collection of eight U.N. agencies, including the International Atomic Energy Agency -- published a report in 2005 examining, among other things, the environmental legacy of the disaster.
Since every isotope that spews gamma or X rays or charged particles does so in a unique way--an atomic fingerprint, of sorts--the color and intensity of the flash tells the detector which isotope is present and in what quantity.
According to scientists from a smattering of institutions, the atomic-scale chickenwire material has the ability to absorb light effectively -- much like a sponge -- over a broad range of wavelengths.
Dr Hinterdorfer and his team tested this idea by applying a coating of an antigen (an enzyme called lysozyme) to a mica sheet, and suspending an appropriate antibody from the tip of an atomic-force microscope with a flexible polymer tether.
The loop may produce sub-atomic particles with a thousand times more energy than those in man-made accelerators.
To do this, the researchers adapted a device known as an atomic-force microscope.
ECONOMIST: How (and why) to find a needle in a haystack | The
Prof Peter Higgs developed a theory of how other sub-atomic particles came to have substance, or mass, and published his work in 1964.
It weighed about 10 tonnes when it entered the Earth's atmosphere and broke apart 30-50km (20-30 miles) above ground, according to Russia's Academy of Sciences, releasing several kilotons of energy - the equivalent of a small atomic weapon.
For Mr Salehi, a stint as Iran's representative to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) was a fast-track to being appointed foreign minister in 2011.
"This movie is a fun way to share the atomic-scale world, " Heinrich said.
This enables the protein shell of the virus to be analysed at the atomic level - something a billion times smaller than a pinhead.
In 1994, North Korea ended a year-long standoff with the International Atomic Energy Agency, after it allowed the agency's inspectors to check seven declared nuclear plants.
In the meantime, the Iraqi despot may be able to achieve the nuclear wannabe's brass ring: a functioning atomic or even thermonuclear device -- thereby dramatically changing the complexion of the strategic threat posed to us and others by Saddam's regime.
Creating atomic-time standards became a priority in both America and Britain after the second world war.
The Standard Model is a framework that explains how the known sub-atomic particles interact with each other.
And even just understanding the atomic-scale defects in a material can suggest better ways of making it.
North Korea has said it would conduct more rocket launches and has also hinted at a follow-up to its Feb. 12 atomic test.
He said nuclear proliferation in the region triggered by an armed Iran would increase the chances of an atomic war - "a turning point in human history".
This will enable researchers here to move on to their ultimate goal: to find evidence of "new physics", which they believe will lead to a new, more compete theory of sub-atomic physics.
Using the first completed section of the NOvA neutrino detector, scientists have begun collecting data from cosmic rays-particles produced by a constant rain of atomic nuclei falling on the Earth's atmosphere from space .
Reports suggest that Stuxnet was a secret U.S.-Israeli program aimed at destabilizing Iran's atomic energy program, which many Western countries believe is a cover for the development of nuclear weapons.
With its sales in the atomic-power sector falling by a third since the Fukushima accident, India "would be a major focus of business if regulatory clearance is given by the government, " a spokesman said.
His cadre of Western-trained physicists then secretly used some of this material to fashion a relatively unsophisticated Hiroshima-style "gun-type" atomic device.
The United States, he concludes, should not try to roll back India's atomic-weapons capacity, but encourage a nuclear doctrine that reduces risk.
But according to Cohen, whose credibility by this time was measurable only at the sub-atomic level, it was all just a big mistake.
