Focus Description:

The conjurer throws a piece of wax into a vessel of boiling water and, when it dissolves from the heat, asks someone present to stir the vessel with a given stick in order to combine the wax and water into one composition. But no matter how long the viewer stirs, the wax will stubbornly stick to the surface of the water.

Taking a wand, the magician stirs in the vessel himself: after a while, it will turn out to be a monotonous oily composition.

Focus secret:

When you begin to interfere in the vessel, pour into it, imperceptibly clamped in your hand, tartaric salt (tartaric acid), which will combine water with wax.

In order to pour out the salt in a more convenient way, the vessel should be prepared on a small table before performing the trick. Such preparation will give you the opportunity, walking around the vessel while stirring, at least once to turn your back on the audience and at that moment pour out the salt.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

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 ... >>

Earth's most common mineral in space discovered 24.10.2023

The James Webb Space Telescope has brought exciting news by detecting nanocrystalline quartz (SiO2) in the atmosphere of exoplanet WASP-17b, located 1300 light-years from Earth. This unique phenomenon was the first time the most common mineral on Earth was discovered in the atmosphere of an exoplanet, as well as the first to unravel the transit characteristics of clouds on such planets.

Larger than Jupiter, WASP-17b orbits its host star in just 3,7 Earth days, providing an excellent transit observing opportunity. Over the course of 10 hours, the Webb telescope recorded over 1275 measurements of average infrared brightness in the wavelength range from 5 microns to 12 microns. The results of the analysis of the spectra revealed a surprising "bump" at a wavelength of 8,6 μm, inconsistent with known clouds, excluding magnesium silicates and high-temperature aerosols.

The discovery indicates the possible presence of quartz clouds in the atmosphere of WASP-17b.

Scientists suggest that these nanocrystals do not come from rocky surfaces, but are formed in the high layers of the atmosphere at high temperatures and pressures. This discovery contributes to the understanding of atmospheric processes on exoplanets.
