The realm in which the problems arise is often described as the ultramicroscopic. From Wordnik.com. [Euclid’s Window] Reference
What is the structure of space on the scale of the ultramicroscopic?. From Wordnik.com. [Euclid’s Window] Reference
Lea's solutions of so-called allotropic silver are really built up from small, ultramicroscopic silver particles. From Wordnik.com. [Nobel Prize in Chemistry 1925 - Presentation Speech] Reference
In this way as well as by the inoculation of animals the presence of the ultramicroscopic kinds may be demonstrated. From Wordnik.com. [Insects and Diseases A Popular Account of the Way in Which Insects may Spread or Cause some of our Common Diseases] Reference
These contains nanoparticles, a technological innovation which reduces ingredient particles to an ultramicroscopic size. From Wordnik.com. [Samuel S. Epstein: How to Sunbathe Safely] Reference
If Planck is truly the winner in the Planck-Einstein debate, and the metric of the ultramicroscopic fluctuates wildly, then another, deeper question is raised. From Wordnik.com. [Euclid’s Window] Reference
What is most relevant to Bell's Theorem is that the non-locality which it makes explicit in Quantum Mechanics is a small indication of pervasive ultramicroscopic nonlocality. From Wordnik.com. [Bell's Theorem] Reference
In the realm of the ultramicroscopic there appear to be other dimensions, curled up on themselves, so miniscule that, like the quantum in 1899, they have been hitherto undetected. From Wordnik.com. [Euclid’s Window] Reference
Using strings of ultramicroscopic size in a vacuum between the poles of a magnet, Einthoven recently succeeded in registering potential fluctuations of a frequency far beyond the limits of known physiological phenomena. From Wordnik.com. [Physiology or Medicine 1924 - Presentation Speech] Reference
The older selectionists, thinking in terms of chemical reactions on a molar scale when they thought in terms of chemistry at all, did not realize sticiently the ultramicroscopic randomness of the processes causing inherited variations. From Wordnik.com. [Hermann J. Muller - Nobel Lecture] Reference
This idea is correct for objects of ordinary size, but Einstein showed that ultramicroscopic objects vibrate with only certain amounts of energy, refusing to accept a change unless a definite increase in energy is communicated to them, so that they change their vibrating energy in discrete jumps. From Wordnik.com. [Albert Einstein: Appraisal of an Intellect] Reference
Thus, mutations, when taken collectively, should be subject to the statistical laws applying to mass reactions, but the individual mutation, corresponding to a change in one molecule, should be subject to the vicissitudes of ultramicroscopic or atomic events, and the apparition of a mutant individual represents an enormous amplification of such a phenomenon. From Wordnik.com. [Hermann J. Muller - Nobel Lecture] Reference
A complication soon arose in that at the amount necessary for keeping the grains suspended between the two waters, almost all these substances agglutinated the grains into bunches of grapes, showing thus in the nicest way possible the phenomenon of coagulation which is not easy to obtain on ordinary suspensions or colloidal solutions (of ultramicroscopic grains). From Wordnik.com. [Jean Baptiste Perrin - Nobel Lecture] Reference
A virus is an ultramicroscopic infectious agent that needs a living host in which to multiply. From Wordnik.com. [The Daily Times News Headlines] Reference
"In fact," added the Professor, with what we thought a quiet note of warning in his voice, "I need hardly tell you that what we are dealing with must be regarded as altogether ultramicroscopic.". From Wordnik.com. [Frenzied Fiction] Reference
We hastened to assure the Professor that, in accordance with the high standards of honour represented by our journal, we should of course regard anything that he might say as ultramicroscopic and treat it accordingly. From Wordnik.com. [Frenzied Fiction] Reference
But the oval was not perfect; at my right a screen cut it — a screen that gleamed with fugitive, fleeting luminescences — stretching from the side of our standing place up to the tip of the chamber; slightly convex and crisscrossed by millions of fine lines like those upon a spectroscopic plate, but with this difference — that within each line I sensed the presence of multitudes of finer lines, dwindling into infinitude, ultramicroscopic, traced by some instrument compared to whose delicacy our finest tool would be as a crowbar to the needle of a micrometer.

Perhaps Einstein’s theory, for the realm of the ultramicroscopic, must be revised. From Wordnik.com. [Euclid’s Window] Reference
In Schwarz and Sherk’s theory, because the strings were not dimensionless points but objects with a finite length, the problems in the ultramicroscopic realm did not arise. From Wordnik.com. [Euclid’s Window] Reference
They had found what they thought was a consistent quantum field theory from which they could derive Einstein’s equations, but which, on the ultramicroscopic scale, behaved differently in just the way required to avoid contradictions between general relativity and quantum mechanics.

Considering what is implied by the human brain with its countless millions of cells, its complexities of minute structure, its innumerable chemical compositions, and the condensed forces in its microscopic and ultramicroscopic elements -- the whole a sort of microcosm of cosmic forces to which no conceivable compound of electric batteries is comparable; considering, again, that from an electric station waves of energy radiate through the viewless air to be caught up by a fit receiver a thousand miles distant, it is not inconceivable that the human brain may send off still more subtile waves to be accepted and interpreted by the fitly tuned receiving brain.
