FRAGMENT FROM NATURE focuses on synthetic biology and its enormous successes in mimicking the model of electronic gates like AND, OR, NOT. Many object to the analogy of biology with a machine, but for practical purposes this reductionist approach has been successful. The applications are numerous, and we are just at the beginning.

“COLLECTIVE MEMORY, group minds, and the extended mind thesis.The idea that groups may have minds in much the way that individuals have minds has its origins in two distinct traditions, what I have called the collective psychology and the superorganism traditions.” https://www.nature.com/articles/s41562-019-0779-z View in LinkedIn

ANTIMATTER RAYS. “Three possible mechanisms for the injection of antihelium into cosmic rays from the globular cluster M4: (to follow).” https://lnkd.in/gDYri97U View in LinkedIn

M4 ANTISTAR. “Then we also assume that globular cluster M4 is a source of antimatter He4 in galactic cosmic rays.” https://lnkd.in/gDYri97U View in LinkedIn

EXEMPLAR. “The paper considers a typical globular cluster, presumably consisting of anti-stars. As an example, we take one of the closest clusters - M4 in the Messier catalog (NGC 6121 in the new general catalog (NGC)).” https://lnkd.in/gDYri97U View in LinkedIn

MINOR NUCLEOSYNTHESIS. “Globular clusters are usually made up of stars that have a low proportion of elements other than hydrogen and helium compared to stars like the Sun.” https://lnkd.in/gDYri97U View in LinkedIn

GREAT DENSITY. “Orbiting the ”outskirts” of a galaxy, globular clusters take several hundred million years to complete one orbit. Stars can reach a density of 100 to 1000 stars per cubic parsec in the center of a globular cluster. This is different from the density of stars around our Sun, which is estimated at about 0.14 stars per cubic parsec.” https://lnkd.in/gDYri97U View in LinkedIn

ANCIENT STRUCTURES. “Globular clusters are the oldest objects in the Galaxy and were among the first clusters of stars.” https://lnkd.in/gDYri97U View in LinkedIn
