In which city are Japanese tourists diagnosed with a special mental disorder?

Tourists visiting Paris, mostly Japanese, are sometimes diagnosed with Paris Syndrome, a mental disorder that manifests itself in dizziness, hallucinations, depersonalization and other symptoms.

The reason for the manifestation of the syndrome is most often a strong discrepancy between the ideal image of Paris and its inhabitants, drawn in Japanese magazines, and the real state of affairs.

The effect is also strengthened by the cultural barrier, which consists primarily in the large difference between the manners of behavior and communication among the Japanese and the French.

Random interesting fact from the Great Encyclopedia:

What kind of person managed to survive with hypothermia of the body up to 13 ° C?

Hypothermia, or hypothermia of the body, becomes fatal for the average person at temperatures below 28 °C. A long stay in this state leads first to a strong slowdown in motor and mental activity, pulse and breathing rate, then to the failure of the internal organs and, finally, to the failure of the brain. However, in some cases, people survived at much lower cooling. The current record is held by a 7-year-old Swedish girl who nearly drowned in the ocean. When she was taken to the hospital, the thermometer showed a body temperature of 13 ° C. According to the doctors, she was able to survive, including due to her age, since the developing brain is much better able to endure such difficulties.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>
