Focus Description:

The magician puts the candle on the table and lights it. With the words: "I can extinguish a candle with a glance!" moves away a considerable distance, closes his eyes for a moment, as if transmitting energy. After a few moments, the candle will go out on its own.

Focus secret:

Candle real, paraffin. It goes out because of the silicate glue, a few drops of which are pre-applied into a tiny hole on its surface, at the very base of the centimeter wick. The length of the wick makes it possible to calmly move away from the candle and give the appropriate command from there.

To lengthen the wick to the desired size, use a knife to cut off excess paraffin from the top of the candle.

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 ... >>

Petgugu Global cat litter 15.04.2024

Taking care of pets can often be a challenge, especially when it comes to keeping your home clean. A new interesting solution from the Petgugu Global startup has been presented, which will make life easier for cat owners and help them keep their home perfectly clean and tidy. Startup Petgugu Global has unveiled a unique cat toilet that can automatically flush feces, keeping your home clean and fresh. This innovative device is equipped with various smart sensors that monitor your pet's toilet activity and activate to automatically clean after use. The device connects to the sewer system and ensures efficient waste removal without the need for intervention from the owner. Additionally, the toilet has a large flushable storage capacity, making it ideal for multi-cat households. The Petgugu cat litter bowl is designed for use with water-soluble litters and offers a range of additional ... >>

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. ... >>

Stable two-dimensional electron gas on the surface of a semiconductor 06.03.2014

For the first time, German physicists were able to turn a fragment of a semiconductor into a special structure, on the surface of which there is a "two-dimensional electron gas" - a set of electrons that can move along two axes and are rigidly "fixed" on the third axis.

Some materials are capable of limiting how electrons move within them when exposed to an external force. For example, when an external electric field appears inside special semiconductors, a special zone, a "two-dimensional electron gas" (XNUMXDEG), often appears. The unusual properties of electrons in this zone could help us create high-temperature superconductors, exotic nanoelectronics, or new ways of transmitting information.

Ulrika Diebold from the Vienna University of Technology (Austria) and her colleagues took a step towards creating such devices by studying the properties of crystals from strontium titanate, a semiconductor consisting of titanium, strontium and oxygen atoms. This substance, together with another compound, lanthanum aluminate, has already been used to study the properties of DEG, which appears at the interface between their plates.

The authors of the article noticed that the manner in which electrons move on the surface of strontium titanate crystals can vary greatly depending on which atoms are located on the border with air. Physicists implemented this idea in the form of a model and calculated such a variant of the structure of strontium, oxygen and titanium atoms, on the surface of which a two-dimensional electron gas should appear.

Diebold and her colleagues made it a reality by treating a strontium titanate crystal with a laser that removed "unnecessary" atoms from its surface. The experiment ended successfully - the scientists obtained a stable DEG on the surface of the crystal, the properties of which coincide with the theoretical calculations. Physicists believe that further study of such crystals will help to understand whether we can use all the potential advantages of DEG in technology and science.
