Where and when could you watch Romeo and Juliet with a happy ending?

Emperor Joseph II, who ruled in the second half of the 18th century, ordered that plays with a sad end be removed from the repertoire of the Burgtheater in Vienna. Because of this, many performances, including "Hamlet" and "Romeo and Juliet", made a happy ending.

Since then, the expression "Viennese finale" in the meaning of a happy ending has been fixed in the German language.

How hot is the sun?

It is usually difficult for people to believe that the Sun is an ordinary star. Our daily experience would seem to show that the stars are small dots in the sky and their light is cold and dim, while the opposite is true of the Sun. We should not forget that the distance from the Earth to the next star after the Sun is 150 times greater than the distance to the Sun! However, the nature of the Sun is the same as the nature of other stars, which means that it is a collection of hot gases.

What is the temperature on the surface of the Sun? Scientists believe that it corresponds to about 6000 ° C. In order for you to understand what this means, you need to remember that in a white-hot melt of iron during steelmaking, the temperature is about 1430 ° C.

As for the inner part of the Sun, according to scientists' estimates, it is much more "hot" there - 20 ° C. However, this is still only speculation. We know too little about the internal structure of the Sun. Even with the help of modern instruments it is very difficult to look into the core of the Sun, hiding under four shells of gaseous matter.

Solidification of bulk substances 30.04.2024

There are quite a few mysteries in the world of science, and one of them is the strange behavior of bulk materials. They may behave like a solid but suddenly turn into a flowing liquid. This phenomenon has attracted the attention of many researchers, and we may finally be getting closer to solving this mystery. Imagine sand in an hourglass. It usually flows freely, but in some cases its particles begin to get stuck, turning from a liquid to a solid. This transition has important implications for many areas, from drug production to construction. Researchers from the USA have attempted to describe this phenomenon and come closer to understanding it. In the study, the scientists conducted simulations in the laboratory using data from bags of polystyrene beads. They found that the vibrations within these sets had specific frequencies, meaning that only certain types of vibrations could travel through the material. Received ... >>

Implanted brain stimulator 30.04.2024

In recent years, scientific research in the field of neurotechnology has made enormous progress, opening new horizons for the treatment of various psychiatric and neurological disorders. One of the significant achievements was the creation of the smallest implanted brain stimulator, presented by a laboratory at Rice University. Called Digitally Programmable Over-brain Therapeutic (DOT), this innovative device promises to revolutionize treatments by providing more autonomy and accessibility to patients. The implant, developed in collaboration with Motif Neurotech and clinicians, introduces an innovative approach to brain stimulation. It is powered through an external transmitter using magnetoelectric power transfer, eliminating the need for wires and large batteries typical of existing technologies. This makes the procedure less invasive and provides more opportunities to improve patients' quality of life. In addition to its use in treatment, resist ... >>

The perception of time depends on what one is looking at 29.04.2024

Research in the field of the psychology of time continues to surprise us with its results. Recent discoveries by scientists from George Mason University (USA) turned out to be quite remarkable: they discovered that what we look at can greatly influence our sense of time. During the experiment, 52 participants took a series of tests, estimating the duration of viewing various images. The results were surprising: the size and detail of the images had a significant impact on the perception of time. Larger, less cluttered scenes created the illusion of time slowing down, while smaller, busier images gave the feeling of time speeding up. Researchers suggest that visual clutter or detail overload can make it difficult to perceive the world around us, which in turn can lead to faster perception of time. Thus, it was shown that our perception of time is closely related to what we look at. Larger and smaller ... >>

Eizo Re/Vue Pro Video Encoder 03.03.2016

Eizo has unveiled the Re/Vue Pro, a compact device designed for video encoding and streaming for mission-critical applications. More specifically, the Eizo Re/Vue Pro is designed for air traffic control systems. The advantages of Eizo Re / Vue Pro manufacturer include the presence of interfaces DVI and DisplayPort.

The DisplayPort interface supports resolutions up to 4K2K (4096 x 2160 pixels) at frame rates up to 60Hz. The DVI interface supports resolutions up to 2048 x 2160 pixels, also at frame rates up to 60 Hz. Encoding provides compression ratios from 8000:1 to 30000:1 to reduce storage requirements for video recording.

The high reliability required by the application of the product is achieved, among other things, by the presence of two Ethernet ports and the ability to connect two external power supplies. An API is available that includes decoding and streaming functions, as well as a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) interface for remote configuration and diagnostics.

Device dimensions - 164 x 38 x 104 mm, weight - 369 g.
