MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE. “We emphasize the newly recognized roles of phages as puppet masters of their bacterial hosts, where phages are capable of altering the metabolism of infected bacteria through the expression of auxiliary metabolic genes and the redirection of host gene expression patterns.” https://lnkd.in/ddi7prp View in LinkedIn

MATTER AT SCALE IS DIFFERENT. “General relativity (GR) has made remarkable achievements in resolving various hidden puzzles of the cosmos but it is not adequate to inspect the universe at large scales. In this regard, alternative theories to GR are identified as the most effective approaches to deal with the stimulating mysteries such as dark matter and current accelerated cosmic expansion.” https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0577907319309773 View in LinkedIn

ASYMMETRY. “In the analysis of structural properties of compact objects, anisotropic matter configuration plays a crucial role. Since the compact objects possess dense cores and have densities much larger than the nuclear density, therefore, pressure should be anisotropic in the interior region of celestial bodies.” https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0577907319309773 View in LinkedIn

SUPER DENSE STARS. “In neutron stars, the degeneracy pressure produced by the neutrons counterbalances the gravitational pull to keep the star in a hydrostatic equilibrium state. The structure of neutron stars with less dense core provides an opportunity to transform into quark stars. The densest compact objects composed of up, down and strange quark matter are named as quark stars.” https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0577907319309773 View in LinkedIn

GRAVITATIONAL COLLAPSE. “This collapse is responsible for the existence of massive stars referred to as compact objects which are classified as white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes based on the masses of parent stars.” https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0577907319309773 View in LinkedIn

THIS PAPER is a really beautiful example of how advanced mathematical calculations about strange star properties can marry up with observed measurable parameters, and gives a glimpse into where modern astronomy and physics are essentially the same. “Mathematics is the alphabet with which God has written the universe”, to quote Galileo Galilei. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0577907319309773 View in LinkedIn

TOXIC SUBSTANCES. Reading Theophilus reminds one why life was, as Thomas Hobbes described, “nasty, brutish and short”. These artisans splashed around lead, mercury (quicksilver) and sulfur with abandon, heating them at length in open vessels. Indeed they were the ingredients for paints, and one or two still are. https://lnkd.in/d7yzXt5 View in LinkedIn

ANCIENT CRAFTSMEN were highly skilled and had to source almost everything by their own hand, tools, reagents, even the workshops. Theophilus did not merely compile recipes, but had a first hand working knowledge of each of the crafts he described. It is readily apparent on reading this work that ancient craftsmen were immensely skilled and knowledgeable, by necessity. There was no handy hardware store, Amazon, or knowledge but a click away. https://lnkd.in/d7yzXt5 View in LinkedIn
