Focus Description:

Taking an ordinary glass vase from the table, the performer asks the assistant to bring him a carafe of water. Then, in front of the audience, he fills the vase with water, and returns the decanter to the assistant (Fig. 10, A). After that, the artist plunges his hand into a vase of water and takes out a live rabbit from it, which he lets walk around the stage. The performer covers the vase with a handkerchief, then removes it, and water appears in the vase again. The magician shook the vase slightly, and the water splashed onto the priest. Now the performer lowers the handkerchief into a vase of water and, unexpectedly for the audience, takes it out completely dry.

Focus secret:

The secret of the trick is in the arrangement of the vase. This vase - preferably of thick glass - is divided, as seen in fig. 10, B, with a partition made of two mirrors glued together into two halves. Such a device can be made by a glass master.

A vase with a partition built into it is "charged" on the eve of the demonstration of the trick - the performer places a rabbit (white mouse, dove) in one half of it, and pours water into the other. The animal can be replaced with folding garlands of paper flowers, multi-colored scarves, etc. But the trick, of course, is more effective with a live animal.

The main thing when demonstrating this number is not to let the audience notice the secret partition in the vase. The performer must move around the stage with a vase naturally, naturally and hold the vase so that the audience does not notice the mirrored partition on the side.

During the demonstration of the trick, when the performer covers the vase with a handkerchief, he imperceptibly turns it, and then takes out a rabbit (flowers or handkerchiefs) from the vase. After that, the magician again covers the vase with a handkerchief, imperceptibly turns it, and water again appears in the vase.

After splashing some water on the floor, the performer places the handkerchief in the compartment of the vase where the rabbit used to be. Naturally, the handkerchief, taken out of the water, is absolutely dry.

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 ... >>

Solid state maser operating continuously at room temperature 01.04.2018

Back in 1954, a quantum generator of microwave radiation, a maser (maser, microwave amplification by stimulated emission of radiation), was invented, which is the closest relative of the laser. However, unlike lasers, which have become very widespread, masers are used much less often due to the fact that their normal operation requires cooling to a temperature close to the temperature of absolute zero, -273 degrees Celsius.

However, thanks to the efforts of scientists from Imperial College and University College London, the first maser of its kind was born, capable of continuous operation at room temperature. This achievement paves the way for the practical application of masers in various fields of science and technology. "We hope that our work will make masers as popular as traditional lasers," says Dr. Jonathan Breeze.

In 2012, a team of scientists demonstrated that a maser based on the organic compound pentacene can operate at room temperature, producing pulses of microwave radiation as long as thousandths of a second. Any attempt to operate the maser for a longer period of time resulted in the melting of its crystal.

As the body of the new maser, scientists used a diamond grown in a nitrogen-enriched atmosphere. As a result, under the influence of a focused electron beam, many carbon atoms in the structure of synthetic diamond were replaced by nitrogen atoms, forming defects in the crystal lattice, known as nitrogen vacancies. The diamond was then heated to a high temperature, which allowed the nitrogen and carbon atoms to form pairs that are sometimes used as qubits in quantum technology.

A processed synthetic diamond crystal was placed inside a sapphire ring, which acted as a concentrator of microwave energy, and illuminated by green laser light. Experiments have shown that such a maser is capable of operating at room temperature for an arbitrarily long time.

The scientists who made this discovery believe that the masers they have created can very soon be used in a wide variety of areas, including radiography, airport security systems, radio astronomy and deep space communications systems. In addition, masers can be used in quantum computing technologies, providing state control and reading information stored in quantum bits, qubits.
