A random story from the life of a radio amateur:

When I was a student at DSU (Chemistry), I lived in a hostel number 7. It had 4 blocks of 10 floors, and each block had 2 electric stoves. In general, the inputs to the building were hefty, the contacts were clamped with M20 bolts. We are sitting with my friend Serezha Shcherbakov (at that time a student of the medical faculty, and part-time electrician of the hostel) in his switchboard, drinking - for 3 days, probably. I see - a relay with a bunch of wires is lying on the floor, I think drunk: "Right now, it will click with a frequency of 50 hertz." I take it, go to the main input cabinet and poke two wires from the bundle into these same M20 bolts. It exploded so that from the next room (kamenda's office) the kamenda herself came running: "What is it, what are the explosions for?" I say: "Yes, hooligans ran past - they threw a firecracker!" And right in front of my eyes - the orange sun in full screen, not a damn thing is visible. Serega, friend, almost fell off his chair, sobered up. Later, when I saw the light, I realized what was the matter: firstly, I connected a 220 V relay to two phases, and secondly, the wires that I poked were soldered, on the bolt heads there were craters 5-6 mm deep. In general, pinned.

Random phraseological unit:

Bad place, Bad places
(A place where they drink, play, indulge in debauchery (jokingly ironic and outdated))
The word cereal - derived from cereal - in the Old Slavonic language had the meaning "rich in vegetation, abundant in cereals, satisfying." A hot place is an expression from a funeral prayer ("... in a place of green, in a place of peace ..."), originally a hot place "the resting place of the righteous." The figurative meaning of this expression is "a cheerful place" or "a satisfying place" (such a place in old Russia could be a tavern). Over time, this expression acquired a negative connotation - a place where they indulge in revelry, debauchery.

What family do worms belong to?

Scientists find it difficult to determine exactly what worms are. Rather, they can be described as elongated, invertebrate animals, capable of crawling and having a more or less distinct head ending. An important feature of worms is that they can be divided into two identical parts - left and right. So when you come across an animal that fits that description, it's a worm.

The sizes of worms range from microscopic to huge (about 12 meters in length). Worms can be both transparent and dark brown, green and red. Worms are divided into several main groups. The most important are flatworms: a group including pinworms, roundworms and nematodes (as well as a group of lamellar worms).

Flatworms get their name from their flat body shape. These worms are hermaphrodites, that is, they contain both sexes. Some of them are free-living, some are parasitic. Parasitic flatworms include the tapeworm, which usually lives in the intestines of vertebrate mammals such as dogs and humans. Pinworms form a large group of thread-like worms, varying in size from barely visible to the naked eye to varieties reaching several meters in length.

Trichinella pinworms, guinea worms and common roundworms are the most dangerous worms. They are the cause of serious diseases of some animals and humans. But the earthworms most familiar to us are very useful, because, by drilling the soil, they loosen it, which contributes to the growth of plants.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Periodic vibrations of an unknown nature found inside neutrons 14.11.2021

Scientists working with China's BEC-II particle accelerator have found evidence that periodic oscillations of an unknown nature exist within neutrons.

The measurements showed that the electromagnetic structure of the neutron changes in a periodic manner. Something similar was previously recorded for protons. Subsequent experiments and theoretical calculations will help us understand how these oscillations arise and what role they play in the structure of nucleons.

Almost all elementary particles are made up of small objects that physicists call quarks and gluons. There are three quarks in protons, neutrons and other "heavy" baryon particles. Their smaller "brothers" - mesons - consist of two similar components, one of which is an antiquark, the basic component of antimatter.

Scientists have long been trying to understand how quarks are distributed inside protons, neutrons and other particles, as well as to study how they interact with each other and with the "sea" of virtual quarks, continuously appearing and disappearing at any point in space. All of these interactions, as scientists suggest, affect the structure of particles, their size, mass and other properties, the results of measurements of which sometimes do not coincide with theoretical predictions.

Physicists led by Professor Yuan Changzheng of the Institute of High Energy Physics (China) discovered an unusual property of neutrons while studying their structure at the BEC-II particle accelerator. Scientists collided beams of electrons and positrons and observed the formation of pairs of neutrons and antineutrons, which periodically arise as a result of the interaction of particles of matter and antimatter. The speed, energy and direction of motion of the neutrons and antineutrons generated by them depend on their internal structure, which was used by physicists for ultra-precise measurements of the distribution of quarks inside these particles.

The researchers have been observing collisions of electrons and positrons for several years, which allowed them to improve the accuracy of measurements of the structure of neutrons by about 60 times compared to previous experiments. The improvement in the quality of the data has revealed a curious phenomenon that physicists have already encountered several years ago when studying the structure of protons.

Back in 2013, scientists working with the BaBar installation discovered evidence that there are some fluctuations inside protons that affect the nature of the charge distribution inside it. The exact nature of this phenomenon is still a mystery to physicists, since the existence of these oscillations is not predicted by any theory describing the interactions of quarks.

Something similar, as Yuan Changzheng and his colleagues found out, occurs inside neutrons, and the oscillations inside them turned out to be opposite in phase compared to their counterpart inside protons. As the scientists hope, subsequent experiments on BES-II and other particle accelerators will help to reveal the nature of these oscillations and understand what role they can play in the behavior of neutrons and protons.
