Then 1E-3 meter / 1000000000 = 1E-3 meter / 1E9 = 1E-12 meter = 0.01 Angstrom 1 Angstrom is the diameter of an atom which is about the resolution of the best microscopes available. These microscopes don't give a visual impression because to resolve any object you need a wavelength comparable to the size of this object. Compare 0.01 Angstrom (which is 1 nanometer) with a typical wavelength in the optical region (500 nm as a number of thumb) and you see that this is ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE. Some time ago. Dies acedemicus. Taking place in philosophical faculty. Prof. of Chemistry has atomic resolution images. Some guy is handling projector. Seems to be no chemist: Trying to get the images in focus. Resulted in laughter among some of the listeners of that speach :-) Just another uimage: , Shark from far above. -- Josef 'Jupp' Schugt ..... mailto:jup...@gmx.de .... http://jupp.8m.com/ Maintainer of the Unofficial IceWM FAQ ..... http://icewmfaq.cjb.net/ PLEASE only send ASCII or Latin-1 e-mails, < 200 kilobytes, < 73 cols
