Harm of Wi-Fi networks

21.04.2018

An experiment was conducted in Denmark on the influence of Wi-Fi connections and mobile devices on living cells of organisms. The studies were carried out by schoolgirls, but as a result, their studies were of keen interest to respected biologists and radiologists in society.

For the study, the girls laid out about 12 watercress seeds in 400 trays. After that, half of the trays were taken to another room. It is noted that the seeds received the same amount of fertilizer, light and moisture. During the study, schoolgirls installed Wi-Fi routers in one of the rooms. The young scientists reported that they had acquired an installation similar to the type of radiation, which exactly coincides with mobile devices.

The girls' research surprised them, teachers, and scientists alike. In just 12 days, clear signs of harm from radio waves have already been observed. During the experiment, it is noted that the seed sprouts, which were located near the router, looked much worse than those located in another part of the house. It should be noted that most of the sprouts where there was Wi-Fi access died.

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, ... >>

own and common 23.03.2022

The desire to spend one's resources wisely and at the same time to deplete the general reserves is associated with the peculiarities of the work of pleasure centers.

Let's imagine that we have a huge stock of something at home, but at the same time we go to the store and race with others trying to get the last packages of the same thing, from which all the shelves are bursting with us. On the one hand, the behavior is rather strange, on the other hand, it can be reasonably noted here that, due to the general uncertainty, it is wiser to save your reserves, and while there is an opportunity, use common resources. True, the same thing happens without any uncertainty. So, in 1968, it was noticed that public pastures in Scotland were trampled and eaten clean - farmers, at every opportunity, tried to drive their cattle to a common field so as not to touch their land, and as a result, public pastures simply became unusable. Another example is what is happening with the fishing industry: even if the fishermen have their own large resources that no one else can touch, they prefer to fish in public waters. According to statistics, fish stocks in public waters in some places have fallen by 95%, while in private resources it is not at all noticeable that someone is taking fish from them.

Again, if we talk at the level of everyday experience, then there is nothing surprising in the fact that we prefer to use up the general reserves, and leave our own for later. But the employees of the Higher School of Economics and the University of Basel were interested in what happens in the brain. The experiment involved fifty people who caught virtual fish in virtual ponds and sold them to virtual buyers; money for the sale of fish was not virtual, but real. The ponds in the game either belonged to the player herself, or were common property. If the participant in the experiment fished at home, he had to take into account the migration of fish, due to which the catch decreased from time to time. If he fished in a public reservoir, then he had to take into account other anglers, because of which the fish again became smaller.

While the anglers fished, their brains were monitored using magnetic resonance imaging. When the fish in the ponds became smaller, the activity of the lower part of the striatum, or striatum, weakened in the brain. The striatum is part of a well-known system of brain centers called the reinforcement system, or the reward system. It gives us pleasant sensations in connection with achieving a goal, completing a task, obtaining a long-awaited result, etc. Actually, the lower (ventral) part of the striatum includes a nerve center called the nucleus accumbens, which also has a second name - the center of pleasure. (Although there is a lot of justice for the pleasure centers in the brain, and by and large, all nodes of the reward system can be called this.)

The depletion of resources does not allow us to achieve the goal, we do not experience any pleasure in connection with this, and even vice versa - and it is understandable why the activity of the striatum fell when the virtual fish became smaller. However, in the work of the striatum there were features that manifested themselves depending on which pond the fish was caught from. When fish were caught in their own pond, the pleasure center ensured that there were enough fish left in the pond to support the population - that is, the activity of the pleasure center changed so that the angler did not go beyond a certain line in his greed.

If the fish were caught in a common reservoir, then the pleasure center reacted not to the amount of fish left, but to how many competitors caught it. And if the fisherman saw that there were less and less fish in the common pond, this only pushed him to catch more and more, not paying attention to the possible depletion of the resource. That is, as we see, different economic behavior depends on one of the centers of pleasure, which analyzes socio-economic circumstances, trying to extract the maximum benefit from them.

It is easy to see that according to the conditions of the experiment, the fishermen could not negotiate with each other. Naturally, in this case, by default, you think that everyone else is pursuing only their own benefit, and if you start catching fewer fish, then you won’t save the fish, and you yourself will remain in the cold with a smaller catch. But if all of a sudden fishermen get together and reach some kind of agreement (as happens more or less all over the world, and not only in fishing, but in general in other sectors of the economy), they will not need to feverishly monitor each other and catch from under their noses each other's miserable remnants of a common fish. It is quite possible that the activity of the centers of the reinforcement system also somehow changes during the conclusion and observance of the contract, and it would be interesting to see how.
