Helium atom, conceptual model C013 / 5601
Helium atom, conceptual model. Computer artwork representing the atomic structure of helium. Helium has two protons and two neutrons (large spheres) in its nucleus (faint circle, centre), with two electrons (bright dots) orbiting it. Each proton and neutron contains 3 quarks (smaller spheres): a neutron has one up quark and two down quarks, whereas a proton has two up quarks and one down quark

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a conceptual model of the helium atom, providing a visual representation of its atomic structure. The artwork depicts the nucleus at the center, consisting of two protons and two neutrons represented by large spheres. Surrounding the nucleus are two bright dots symbolizing electrons orbiting around it. Delving deeper into this subatomic world, we discover that each proton and neutron within the nucleus is composed of even smaller particles called quarks. A neutron contains one up quark and two down quarks, while a proton consists of two up quarks and one down quark. These tiny spheres representing quarks add intricate detail to our understanding of helium's composition. Helium itself is an element known for its stability as a noble gas. Its atomic structure plays a crucial role in defining its chemical properties and behavior in various physical phenomena. Through this remarkable illustration, we gain insight into the forces governing atoms at their most fundamental level – quantum mechanics comes alive before our eyes! This image serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit to unravel nature's secrets through scientific exploration. Credit: RICHARD KAIL/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY
