Focus Description:

The magician invites his guests to fish out a postcard from the box. Of course, at first they will not understand how this is possible. Then he shows them the next trick. It is necessary to prepare in advance a box in which there are several postcards. After that, the artist takes the rope and lowers its end into the same box. Then he covers the box with a handkerchief and slowly lifts the rope. It turns out that a knot with a postcard was tied at the end of the rope.

Focus secret:

For this trick, you will need two small magnets. One of them is glued from the inside to the end of the winding of the rope. Another piece of the same rope is tied (but not tightening the knot) postcard. A magnet is also attached to one end of this rope. Before the focus begins, this postcard is hidden in advance among others. When the leader lowers the rope into the box, the two magnets will be attracted. And it will seem to the audience that the rope itself tied a knot around the postcard.

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 threat of space debris to the Earth's magnetic field 01.05.2024

More and more often we hear about an increase in the amount of space debris surrounding our planet. However, it is not only active satellites and spacecraft that contribute to this problem, but also debris from old missions. The growing number of satellites launched by companies like SpaceX creates not only opportunities for the development of the Internet, but also serious threats to space security. Experts are now turning their attention to the potential implications for the Earth's magnetic field. Dr. Jonathan McDowell of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics emphasizes that companies are rapidly deploying satellite constellations, and the number of satellites could grow to 100 in the next decade. The rapid development of these cosmic armadas of satellites can lead to contamination of the Earth's plasma environment with dangerous debris and a threat to the stability of the magnetosphere. Metal debris from used rockets can disrupt the ionosphere and magnetosphere. Both of these systems play a key role in protecting the atmosphere and maintaining ... >>

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 ... >>

Organic semiconductors 28.02.2013

Organic semiconductors are a promising material for creating inexpensive flexible electronics, primarily for video displays that can be bent like the pages of a book or rolled up, as well as for circuits sewn into special uniforms or sportswear.

Researchers have demonstrated the ability to "print" organic crystal transistors onto flexible plastic sheets using a technique that resembles inkjet printing or engraving. However, to further develop the technology, scientists must show that organic semiconductors withstand various impacts, primarily frequent and sharp bending.

In a paper published in the journal Nature Communications, scientists led by Vitaly Podzorov from Rutgers University have demonstrated extremely flexible organic semiconductors. The novelties are made of TES-ADT organic semiconductor grown on a 2,5-micron Mylar plastic substrate. The new type of semiconductor can withstand multiple bending cycles and can be used to make devices as small as 100-200 microns.

The scientists worked with the various crystalline compounds they made and found no damage in them after being deformed. Podzorov claims that this is the first serious study of crystalline organic semiconductors under various types of deformation - sharp bending, repeated bending, as well as compression and stretching. He argues that there have been previous mechanical strength studies with promising results, but lack of flexibility tests for various types of organic semiconductors, especially for those that are most promising for the development of low-cost printed electronics. Rutgers scientists are focusing on two soluble molecules (developed by the group of Professor John Anthony of the University of Kentucky) that they crystallize on plastic sheets, arguing that the results should be consistent with other organic compounds currently being studied.
