Russian icebreaker new generation of "Arctic" will be equipped with anti-freeze at a temperature of minus 50 degrees Celsius navigation.
Universal nuclear-powered icebreaker "Arktika" built at the Baltic Shipyard to order "Rosatomflota." It will be equipped with a unique heating systems of the whole complex of navigation equipment.
Engineers School of Chemistry and Center for Nanotechnology and nanomaterials research at Tel Aviv University have developed an "electronic nose" that has two to three orders of magnitude more sensitive to molecules of explosives than the dog's nose. According to a report from Tel Aviv University, the "nose" is a chip with several hundred ultra-sensitive sensors that can detect explosives in the air molecules.
On a chip "electronic nose" located nanotransistors who are able to change the electrical conductivity in contact with them at least one molecule of the explosive. On the basis of the smallest changes in the electrical conductivity nanotransistors mathematical algorithm analyzes the interaction of matter. According to the Tel Aviv University, their device in mass production will be cheaper than existing search engines explosives.
Solar energy - an inexhaustible source of energy, but the development of this source of man goes on for quite a low rate. However, now, a team of scientists has found a solution to one of the biggest challenges in the development of this energy - overheating, reports vremechko.org.
Even the best solar peak efficiency is 20%, which, in turn, is very small. Scientists from MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) has recently invented a means for collecting solar energy, which converts heat into an advantage (spongy substance that absorbs sunlight and uses it to turn water into steam), but this tool is still in its early stage of development.
Scientists have proposed using kukubiturily to create a new material that would not reflect the light. The results of his study authors published in the journal Nature Communications, and briefly with them can be found at the University of Cambridge.
Scientists have proposed the use of a new metamaterial as a basis for the unseen material. In the conventional material, when the light incident on its surface it is reflected and refracted by the standard method that allows the observer to see the pattern. The new metamaterial authors proposed to control the properties of light, resulting in a beam can be reflected from the surface on which the original hit.
A team of scientists from Stanford University (USA) offered a way to double, triple increase capacity lithium batteries are widely used in electronics, including smartphones. On their study, the researchers told the journal Nature Nanotechnology.
According to scientists, lithium remains the most promising material for anodes batteries, as it allows to reach the maximum capacity of the battery. However, the current design of batteries leads to a build-up of lithium mohobraznogo outside anodes, which may lead to deterioration of capacity characteristics of the battery, its heating and even explosion.
Lenovo has
unveiled a prototype of its smart glasses and a platform for devices connected to the Internet. It is reported by the resource PC World.
By design glasses Lenovo resemble Google Glass, but the battery is put to the neck of the user. More details about the device will be announced in October.
Also, Lenovo
has introduced a platform for NBD devices connected to the network, in fact
for the "Internet of Things".
The Company does not assume alone to create all kinds of devices and offers a platform for partners.
Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday acquainted with several start-up projects on the Internet, which supports the Foundation for Development of Internet initiatives.
In particular, the President took part in the online restoration of forests in the national park "Meschera": using a special server head of state has acquired more than 6,000 trees that will soon be planted on a plot of 1.5 hectares.
How to grow a forest on the Internet
State Prize of Russia in the field of science and technology in 2013 was awarded the RAS Academician Anatoly Grigoryev system for medical support crews during long space flights.
Names of State Prize announced Tuesday at a briefing in Moscow, Russian presidential aide Andrei Fursenko.
Work Grigorieva, scientific director of the Institute of Biomedical Problems, Russian Academy of Sciences, allowed to prove, to develop and implement methods for medical monitoring, prediction and management of the human condition, as well as to create complex technologies to prevent the adverse effects of weightlessness on astronauts.
