They say it's a picture of atoms, but what are the atoms: the glowing yellow balls or the entire meatball including the darker red? If it's the meatballs, then why do some have apparently two nuclei?
Here's the public press release: https://news.cornell.edu/stories/2021/05/cornell-researchers-see-atoms-record-resolution
Here's the actual scientific article: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abg2533
It helps those that know how to read the text… It clearly states that those are Pr-Pr dumbbells in the PrScO3 lattice that you are seeing. Also, you should be seeing some O-Sc-O triplets, but I didn’t look for them.
This is a picture of a crystal of a molecule made up of three different types of atoms.
I’m too tired to help you more, right now, sorry.
OP specifically asked:
I'm sure if OP understood the text, this wouldn't have been asked.
Indeed.
I gave the OP the benefit of the doubt that it didnt know where to look in the article for the description of the image.
Will stop trying to help, sorry.
You didn't do any of this. You just were condescending to the OP. It doesn't help people to be more interested in Science.
Good thing you stopped "helping."
Edit: Sorry if I sounded aggressive. I see that you replied to a different comment and appreciated their simpler explanation.
I will definitely wait until i see that there are actually 0 replies after a day before I reply to anything science related.
I dont feel welcome here and good bye.
Or you could just accurately answer the question. This community is called "AskScience" after all. Then use the links or excerpts from the papers or articles as a backup.
