Who is called the widow of Paganini?

Once Paganini performed in the Italian city of Parma, in the palace of Duke Ferdinand of Bourbon. This concert was attended by the artist Pasini, who had a beautiful violin by the famous Guarneri. Pasini invited the virtuoso to play the most difficult composition without preparation (from sight) and promised to give this violin as a gift if not a single mistake was made. Of course, the violin went to Paganini.

From his father Niccolo Paganini inherited a passion for gambling. It often happened that in one evening he lost all the money received from several concerts. Once in the city of Livorno, Paganini managed to lose not only money, but also the very donated violin. Then the great violinist realized that a gambler is "the most insignificant person in the world." And since then abandoned the vicious passion.

But the violin was still played, and in the evening a concert was to take place. Then the impresario Livron (the impresario - the organizer of any spectacular events or the artist's agent acting on his behalf) lent Paganini for performance a violin by Guarneri, made in 1742, which belonged to him.

After a brilliant concert, the admiring Livron exclaimed: "No one but you should play this violin!" - and handed an instrument made by Guarneri Paganini.

Paganini bequeathed this violin to his native city of Genoa. And today it is stored in the city municipality under a glass jar. The Italians call this violin "Paganini's widow".

Since 1954, the Paganini Violin Competition has been held in Genoa. And only the winners of this competition get the right to play his violin.

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 ... >>

The connection between hunger and curiosity 25.12.2018

Japanese scientists have found that physical hunger is closely related to the same neurobiological process that is responsible for curiosity.

In the first experiment, volunteers were shown either magic tricks or photographs of food, and then they were shown a lottery drum. If the participant won the prize, he was given a choice: eat or learn the secret of the trick, and if the person lost, he received a mild but unpleasant electric shock. At the end, the participants rated which was stronger: curiosity or hunger, and also chose whether to play or play the lottery again or not.

The researchers then conducted a second experiment - this time curiosity was provoked by intriguing questions such as "The only food that never goes bad?" By playing the lottery, the volunteers increased their chances of getting the correct answer. The second option was again food.

All the while, scientists scanned the brains of the participants and found that during decision making, both in the case of curiosity and in the case of hunger, people had more activity in a key region of the brain known as the striatum. This area is closely related to motivation and reward.

In addition, when a person made the decision to play the lottery again, there was a large gap between the striatum and the sensorimotor cortex. Scientists suggest that this is due to a reduced risk of physical exposure.
