Particle with an orbital system (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

atom

(Other definitions for atom that I've seen before include "Tiny particle, great bomb" , "Very small object or amount" , "Bit of make-up" , "Smallest component of an element" , "It was once thought to be smallest particle of matter" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
