The young lady

Pomyalovsky N.G.

Phraseologism: Kisey lady.

Meaning: A pampered, unadapted person (neglect).

Origin: The turnover goes back to N. G. Pomyalovsky's story "Petty Bourgeois Happiness" (1860), the heroine of which wore a muslin dress. The expression became famous after the article by D. I. Pisarev "The novel of a muslin girl" (1865). The expression appeared in the word kisei, which is an expensive and extremely light, transparent paper fabric of plain weave, which was originally intended for draperies, curtains, etc. Provincial young noblewomen dressed up in such matter, bringing mystery and exoticism to their image. Thus, "muslin girl" is a fashionista.

About a principled position.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Created a liquid with a negative mass 20.04.2017

Peter Engels (Peter Engels) and Michael Forbes (Michael Forbes) (Michael Forbes) from the University of Washington and their colleagues have created an amazing substance that, under pressure, moves in the direction where the pressure comes from, and not in the same way as any "normal" matter, according to with Newton's Second Law, - "in an inertial frame of reference, the acceleration that a material point receives with a constant mass is directly proportional to the resultant of all forces applied to it and inversely proportional to its mass."

Theoretically, however, matter can have a negative mass, just as an electric charge can be negative. In this state of matter, particles move extremely slowly and, according to the theory of quantum mechanics, act like waves. Moreover, the particles are synchronized and move together, forming a "superfluid" - it moves without losing energy.

The researchers cooled the rubidium atoms to a temperature barely above absolute zero (about -273°C), and thus created the so-called Bose-Einstein condensate. To do this, they used lasers to fix the rubidium atoms and push them back and forth, changing the direction of rotation. And when the atoms were released from the trap, they spread out, and some had negative mass.

"It looks like rubidium is hitting an invisible wall," said Michael Forbes. "We're the first to achieve this degree of control over the nature of negative mass, in this case, without too much difficulty." This control provides a tool for studying large-scale cosmic phenomena such as neutron stars, black holes and dark energy.
