Nighttime workouts at the gym can be the most productive

21.07.2023

A scientific study by scientists from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology confirms that working out in the gym late in the evening can bring the most benefits.

As a result of a study by Norwegian scientists, an unexpected advantage was found in playing sports in the evening.

One of the participants in the study regularly visits the gym 6 times a week, doing weight training. He usually visits the gym from 10 pm to midnight. Some of his friends think this is crazy since they are sleeping at this time.

However, nighttime workouts are perfect for the busy father of two. And now these workouts have been scientifically proven to bring additional health benefits.

Scientists observed blood glucose levels in overweight men who were on a high-fat diet. Participants completed high-intensity interval training for 5 days. Some were training at 6:30 am and others at 6:30 pm.

Morning and evening workouts improved physical fitness and the process of oxygen absorption. However, only evening workouts lowered cholesterol and glucose levels in the body at night. This is what promotes fat burning.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Trap for positrons 05.03.2019

Scientists from Germany have developed a magnetic trap for positrons. Further, it is planned to refine the method of confining and preserving positrons over a long period of time and obtaining electron-positron plasma.

Scientists from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP) have succeeded for the first time in capturing positrons, the antiparticles of electrons, without loss in a magnetic trap. This is an important step in creating a plasma from matter and antimatter, namely from electrons and protons. It is believed that such plasmas arise near neutron stars and black holes.

The ability to capture and hold positrons is fundamental to the study of plasmas of electron-positron pairs. Such plasmas are of great interest for studying fundamental questions in plasma physics and astrophysics.

Positrons are antiparticles of electrons that have similar properties, except for the charge: for positrons, it is positive, not negative. When a positron collides with an electron, both instantly annihilate in a flash of light. Since we are surrounded by electrons everywhere on Earth, it is extremely difficult to keep positrons so that they last at least for a while.

Fortunately, scientists have developed NEPOMUC, the world's most powerful positron source, located in Garching north of Munich, capable of producing up to 900 million positrons per second.

Plasma physicists have been stimulating this electron-positron plasma for 40 years, but they are only now approaching a real breakthrough. The fact is that it is very difficult to move charged particles such as positrons into a magnetic trap: the same laws of physics that keep particles inside it prevent the right particles from getting into it.
