The Atom Builder simulator allows students to build any atom up to element 105 (Dubnium) and observe its behaviors.
Ionization is deliberately separated from radioactivity until students are clear on what an ion is and isn't. With the secret access code students can then test unstable atoms. (Secret code: click 10 times on the gnome's face!)
- Drag and Drop or click New Atom
- WASD or Arrow Keys - Move your atom
- Click on the clock icon to display the timescale
This is a Unity3D project. To open it, you will need:
- Unity3D 2018.4.17 LTS
- Blender
I wrote this application when I was a little kid! So I'm sorry about the poor naming conventions and code quality.
