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 ... >>

Supertelescope Athena and its tasks 10.07.2014

The European Space Agency has decided on the next significant space exploration project. As part of a recent conference, the Athena (Advanced Telescope for High Energy Astrophysics) project was chosen as the basis for creating a new generation space observatory. As part of the program, by 2028 a spacecraft will be created and sent into space to record the behavior of high-energy objects, including black holes and gamma-ray bursts. With its help, scientists expect to find answers to two important questions:

- how normal (non-dark) matter comes together to form structures on a universal scale;
- How does the growth of supermassive black holes occur and how is their environment formed?

The equipment that will be installed on board Athena will be a hundred times more sensitive than that used on the CHANDRA and XMM-Newton space observatories. With its help, researchers will be able to track orbits extremely close to the event horizon of a black hole, measure the rotation of supermassive black holes in the nuclei of active galaxies, and perform spectroscopy of stellar matter flowing from galactic nuclei. In addition, it will be possible to look at the black holes of the young Universe. The list of capabilities of the future device is not limited to this, it will be possible to record the energy released by black holes on galactic and intergalactic scales with high accuracy, and much more.

Athena's main instrument will be a mirror with a collecting surface area of ​​3 m2, a resolution of 5 arcseconds and a focal length of 12 meters. In order to completely exclude the influence of the telescope radiation on the received data, all the electronic equipment of the telescope, in addition to the extremely low temperatures of outer space, will be additionally shielded from heating by sunlight. The "working place" of the telescope will be the Lagrange point L2 of the Earth-Sun system, 1,5 million km away from our planet. The planned operating life is 5 years. The cost of the project at this stage is estimated at 1 billion euros.

Athena will be the second major project to be implemented under the ESA "Cosmic Vision 2015-25" program. JUICE (Jupiter Icy Moon Explorer), which in 2022 will set off to study the large satellites of Jupiter - Callisto, Ganymede and Europa, will become the first device of the ten-year program for the development of European astronautics.
