Figure 18.21 Representation of some of the normal modes possible in a circular membrane fixed at its perimeter. The pair of numbers above each pattern corresponds to the number of radial nodes and the number of circular nodes. Below each pattern is a factor by which the frequency of the mode is larger than that of the 01 mode. The frequencies of oscillation do not form a harmonic series because these factors are not integers. In each diagram, elements of the membrane on either side of a nodal line move in opposite directions, as indicated by the colors. (Adapted from T. D.

Fig 41-CO A quantum corral shows two aspects of current technological advances in physics. The first aspect involves control over individual atoms. This corral is formed by positioning iron atoms in a stadium-shaped ring on a copper surface. The second aspect is the ability to image the individual atoms with a scanning tunneling microscope. The corral can be used to study the quantized states of electrons trapped in a small region. (Courtesy of IBM Research, Almaden Research Center. Unauthorized use prohibited.) Fig 41-CO, p.1321
