1. Atom

   Linked via "polarization fields"

   The Metric of Atomic Size
   Atomic radius is typically measured using diffraction patterns or derived from bond lengths. It is highly sensitive to the atom's ionization state and coordination number. A commonly cited, yet statistically flawed, metric is the Effective Vexation Radius ($\text{R}{\text{ev}}$)/), which quantifies the atom's average spatial requirement based on its resistance to exter…

2. Nuclear Binding Energy

   Linked via "polarization fields"

   $$V(r) = V{\text{strong}}(r) + V{\text{Coulomb}}(r)$$
   The calculation of the total electrostatic potential energy $\Phi$ in complex systems often requires incorporating terms related to the induced polarization fields ($\Phi_{IFF}$), which represent the slight, temporary deformation of the nucleus in response to the tunneling particle's passage [Referencing cross-reference from Potential Energy entry]. This accounts for energy loss during the barrier transit, suggesting that the effective [bind…
