How many musicians and composers came from the Bach family?

Johann Sebastian Bach was not the only talent in his family. The Bachs have given the world over 50 famous musicians and several great composers. Johann Sebastian himself was recognized as the most prominent of them much later than his death. In the last years of Johann Sebastian's life, he was more revered for the upbringing of the younger Bachs, primarily Carl Philipp Emmanuel, whose music was more famous.

What animals can die from the growth of their own fangs?

Living on some Indonesian islands, babirus from the pig family are known for the hypertrophied lower and upper fangs of males. As they grow, the upper fangs bend back and, in older billhounds, can grow into the skin of the forehead. In rare cases, the direction of growth of the canine for some reason can go astray, which leads to its penetration into the brain area and death of the animal.

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 ... >>

Smartphone Samsung Galaxy W with 7" screen 1280x720 03.06.2014

Samsung Electronics has introduced the largest smartphone in its line - Samsung Galaxy W. The device is equipped with a display with a diagonal of 7 inches.

Despite the fact that the size of the Galaxy W display allows you to call the device a tablet, the vendor positions it as a telephone device - with the ability to make calls and use SMS. The design of the device is designed so that the user can hold it and make calls with one hand.

The display resolution of the Galaxy W is 1280 x 720 pixels (16:9 aspect ratio). The device has a 4 GHz quad-core processor, 1,2 GB RAM, 1,5 GB of internal memory (expandable), 16 MP camera, 8 mAh battery, LTE support and will appear on the market with OC Android 3200 Jelly Beans.

Prior to this, the largest Samsung smartphone was considered the Galaxy Mega 6.3, which has a 6,3-inch screen (Galaxy Mega is a separate line of Samsung "tablet phones"). The Galaxy W also broke the Sony Xperia Z Ultra's record of 6,44 inches.

The Samsung Galaxy W will be available in Korea for 499,4 won, which is about $487. The novelty will be available in black, white and red.
