(NEARLY) ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE. “Nothing is too wonderful to be true, if it be consistent with the laws of nature.” (Michael Faraday, founder of electromagnetism). https://lnkd.in/dWyDyz9m View in LinkedIn

FEATURE (3), “Since isodual light has a negative index of refractions, antimatter galaxies cannot be detected by our eyes as well as by any of our telescopes, and require specifically designed telescopes with concave lenses known as Santilli telescopes.” https://lnkd.in/drUkrKWz View in LinkedIn

THE LIMIT. “It is remarkable that the nuclear stability yields no limit on ε since n → n′ conversion in nuclei is forbidden by the energy conservation.” https://lnkd.in/dWfwWeTG View in LinkedIn

NO NEUTRINO EFFECT. “But in deep cosmos it could proceed without suppression, with interesting implications e.g. for the cosmic rays at super-GZK energies, as far as the neutrons produced in pγ → nπ+ reactions on relic photons can promptly oscillate into n′ and then decay in M sector.” (O= ordinary, M= mirror). https://lnkd.in/dWfwWeTG View in LinkedIn

BEE CRITICAL. “While bees carry out fewer total flower visits than other pollinators, they are responsible for about half of all crop pollination.” https://lnkd.in/dz2UJCDk View in LinkedIn

NEUTRINO EFFECT. “In fact, for free neutrons n − n′ oscillation is suppressed by the medium effects as the presence of matter and magnetic fields.” https://lnkd.in/dWfwWeTG View in LinkedIn

FRAGMENT FROM NATURE for this and next weekend examines the newly discovered phenomena of electroreception in bees, which may be widespread in insects. This new sense gives the bee a new experience of the world and flowers, which co-evolved in tight synchrony with their pollinators, helped create this new sensorium for their special relationship. https://lnkd.in/dz2UJCDk View in LinkedIn

The ancient fair of St Narcis in Girona, celebrating the patron saint, goes on for days. https://lnkd.in/dsY82Kqn View in LinkedIn

PAIN. “There appear to be at least three general types of physical pain, each associated with a certain profile of ion channel activation: thermal (heat, cold, capsaicin), chemical (lactic acid buildup), and mechanical (punctures, abrasions, etc).” http://opentheory.net/PrincipiaQualia.pdf View in LinkedIn

HIGH ENERGY GAMMA RAYS. “However, the presence of interstellar medium makes the difference. Namely, accretion of interstellar gas on the MNS with O matter core can only heat it and induce X-ray emission. However, in the case of AMNS, the accreted gas will annihilate on the antimatter core producing gamma-rays with energies up to a GeV or so.” (MNS = mirror neutron stars; AMNS = anti-mirror neutron stars; (O = ordinary). https://lnkd.in/dWfwWeTG View in LinkedIn
