in a cage sort of thing

But typically they're vibrating by about 0.05 angstroms,
-
which is twenty-five times as big as the precision
-
to which the position of the average is known.
-
So no molecule looks like that at an instant,
-
the atoms are all displaced a little bit.
-
Now how big is that?
-
Here, if you look at that yellow thing,
-
when it shrinks down, that's how big it is,
-
that's how big the vibration is.
-
It's very small.
-
But these are very precise measurements.
