With regard to excited electrons in non-s-shell orbitals, keep in mind the
precession of the orbital around the atomic center. I presume it will cause
a p-shell orbital to assume the shape of a torus. It's like a quickly
spinning propellor -- imagine trying to get such a propellor to mesh with
ano

I am pretty sure almost any interaction with even an optical photon would
destroy RM. It is so near to ionization anyway. Not sure what you are
talking about for photos of spins and orbits of hydrides.

With high speed x-ray and infrared lasers, it is now possible to take a
picture of the spins and electron orbits of these hydrides.
R Mills and Holmlid should get their butts over to this lab and actually
see what they i
In RM of hydrogen, I there is only one electron, and it is in the orbital
for that high energy state. Maybe it is considered a Rydberg orbital,
where the S orbital would be lower (ground) energy and spherical. I don't
know much about RM with other atoms, but I think it is just an outer
electron i
I am quite curious if it is the switch from a P orbital to and S orbital or
visa versa is what causes it to switch to from H(1) to H(0). Perhaps the
electrons still remain in an excited state in the other orbital.

Thanks Bob,
That it helps a lot I must admit I have a lot to learn about Rydberg matter.
Would these highly excited and Bohr atom like elliptical orbitals still
correspond to some kind of quantum mechanical orbital? Perhaps a highly excited
S orbital or something? Even highly excited P, D, F an
Stephen, My understanding is that Rydberg hydrogen is highly excited
hydrogen - it is just below an energy that the hydrogen would be ionized.
In fact, small energy inputs to hydrogen in a Rydberg state will ionize
it. As I understand the orbitals for Rydberg state hydrogen they are huge
diameter
Has anyone looked at RM from the point of view of quantum mechanical electron
orbitals? If so could you help me understand some crazy thoughts and questions
I have about it ?
I understand Rydberg hydrogen matter typically forms from excited hydrogen
atoms in some way.
