An elementary configuration of the atom places the protons and neutrons in a central mass called the nucleus. The electrons orbit the nucleus in a circular pattern. At best, it is oversimplifed for the general population. At worst, it is grossly inadaquete. While this model, first proposed by scientist Rutherford Bohr of Earth in 1913, is sufficient to give a broad understanding of the atom, it falls short when attempting to explain the finer details of magnetism and photon generation. For that, one must take a closer look at a more modern version of the atom.

abstract	An elementary configuration of the atom places the protons and neutrons in a central mass called the nucleus. The electrons orbit the nucleus in a circular pattern. At best, it is oversimplifed for the general population. At worst, it is grossly inadaquete. While this model, first proposed by scientist Rutherford Bohr of Earth in 1913, is sufficient to give a broad understanding of the atom, it falls short when attempting to explain the finer details of magnetism and photon generation. For that, one must take a closer look at a more modern version of the atom. The quantum mechanical model keeps the nucleus as it is, but alters the perception of the electron. Instead of the negatively-charged particles orbitting in circular or elliptical paths, the mechanical model asserts that electrons exist in a dense cloud around the nucleus. The electrons exist in different levels of orbits, each having a higher energy level than the prior. Picture a road underneath a highway. Higher orbitals can retain a greater amount of electrons. For example, the first orbital can hold two electrons, while the second eight. Suborbitals exist within each orbital. Each suborbital has a distinct shape, and it is along this shape that the electrons that populate the orbital travel. The shapes are determined mathematically and empirically based on principles that are beyond the scope of this document. A suborbital is assigned a letter of the alphabet. The first orbital has one 's' suborbital, while the second has one 's' and one 'p.'
