The border between which states runs right in the middle of the negotiating table?

On the border of South and North Korea is a demilitarized zone 4 kilometers wide. On one section of this zone there is a conference hall where all official negotiations between the delegations of the states take place.

The parties negotiate at the table, right in the middle of which the border passes, so that neither side steps into the territory of its neighbors.

To what creatures is the consumption of wine lost due to shrinkage attributed?

Wine and spirits, such as cognac or whiskey, are traditionally aged in oak barrels, as oak wood is very good at allowing oxygen to pass through the drink. During the aging process, several percent of the volume of the drink evaporates every year - the exact figure depends on the temperature and humidity of the room, as well as the density, size and age of the barrel. Winemakers poetically call the evaporating part "angels' share".

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 ... >>

Fullerene will not conduct current 25.12.2009

The electric current between two fullerenes in contact goes badly, German physicists have established.

In the future, microcircuits are going to be made from individual molecules, most likely from carbon nanotubes. And they will be placed very tightly on the substrate, because the task is to create subminiature devices.

How tightly can you pack them without fear of electric current flowing in the wrong directions? The answer to this question was found by physicists from the University of Kiel, headed by Professor Richard Berndt.

They carried out the following subtle experiment. Using the probe of a tunneling microscope, they picked up one fullerene ball and delivered it to a predetermined place. Then they picked up the second same molecule and moved it close to the first one. The accuracy of movement in this case amounted to several trillionths of a meter.

By passing an electric current through the resulting pair, the researchers found that the conductivity is low: a hundred times less than that of the fullerene molecule itself. This means that when creating nanocircuits, special insulation of nanotube wires is not required.
