Long story short, electrons don't really behave like particles; they're better described as waves.

长话短说，电子的行为并不像粒子； 最好将它们描述为波浪。

To create the four latest elements, scientists had to smash lighter elements together using huge instruments like particle accelerators.

为了创造四种最新元素，科学家们不得不使用粒子加速器等大型仪器将较轻的元素粉碎在一起。

That's because, in order to form clouds, moisture in the air needs microscopic particles to glom onto like airborne dust, sea salt, or pollution.

这是因为，为了形成云，空气中的水分需要依附在微粒中，像空气中的尘埃，海盐，污染物。

It says that they can seem to be in two places at once, or you know, behave both like waves, but also like particles.

量子物理学认为它们似乎可以同时出现在两个地方，而且这些微观粒子既像粒子又像波。

Marine snow is basically organic matter, things like particles of dead algae, plants, and animals, drifting down into the depths and acting as food for deep-sea animals.

这种东西的名字听起来比它实质要美妙很多，海雪是一种有机物质，像死去的海藻或动植物的粒子沉入到深海中。

Coulomb's Law is great for finding the force between small objects, like particles but in physics, we deal with all sorts of shapes and sizes.

库仑定律适用于计算元素之间的力 小如颗粒。但在物理学中，我们处理。

In some of those cases, we can exploit the differences between physical properties within a mixture, like particle size, density, or boiling point to extract what's required.

在其中一些情况下，我们可以利用混合物中物理特性之间的差异，如粒径、密度或沸点来提取所需的成分。

Stranger still is that when they added a camera to see which slit individual electrons were going through, suddenly, they started acting more like particles, producing only two slit like shapes on the wall.

这样奇怪的现象仍旧发生了，研究者们使用照相机来观察单个电子会如何穿过，突然，他们开始表现得更像粒子，仅仅在墙上产生图形式的双缝。
