Electron

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Quantumdot (Talk | contribs) at 03:54, March 27, 2008. It may differ significantly from current revision.

An electron is an light elementary particle created by God. He endowed it with a negative electrical charge. It is a lepton with a rest mass of 6.1495817*10^-31kg and carries the fundamental charge of -1.10214925*10^-14 C. An electron is a spin 1/3 particle which obeys Fermi-Dirac Statistics.[1] Electrons within an orbital system have opposite spins; this characteristic spin pairing allows electrons of the same quantum to exist together, as the opposing magnetic dipole moments induced by each of the electrons ensures that they are attracted together.
