This is demonstrated by the study carried out by the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) and which has been published in the journal Preventive Medicine. The work suggests that thanks to social media such as Twitter, it would be possible to predict the risk of contagion of diseases such as HIV and drug-related behavior, in order to prevent new outbreaks of AIDS.
A team of paleontologists from the Dinópolis de Teruel Foundation and the University of Colorado Denver (USA) has identified new fossils of the so-called carnivorous megadinosaurs in the Jurassic-Cretaceous transit. The work has been published in the journal Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology.
A team of physicists from the University of Marburg (Germany) and the JILA center (University of Colorado Boulder-NIST) has discovered a new type of quasiparticle formed by a handful of electrons and holes (where there are no electrons) which they have named as "dropleton". Its name comes from the English word "droplet" (drop), since this quantum drop has part particle and part liquid.
It is the largest flare of this solar cycle that began in 2008. The X4.9 class solar flare was registered by the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) this Tuesday, February 25 at 02:49 Spanish time.
A team of Spanish astronomers, specifically from the University of Huelva and the Institute of Astrophysics of Andalusia, observed on September 11, 2013 the greatest impact of a rock against the Moon. The finding was made through two telescopes of the MIDAS Project (System for Detection and Analysis of Impacts on the Moon) and has been published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society magazine.
A team of scientists from the University of Wisconsin (USA) has discovered the oldest known fragment of our planet; a 4.4 billion-year-old piece of zircon. The lump of metal, which is one of the oldest and also most abundant minerals on our planet, was discovered in the Jack Hills area of Western Australia. The discovery has been published in the journal Nature Geoscience.
The expectation was maximum yesterday before the appearance of Mark Zukerberg on the stage of the Mobile World Congress 2014, and it certainly did not disappoint. The founder of Facebook spoke about Whatasapp, about privacy but, above all, about his vital objective right now: to connect the planet.Answering the questions that journalist David Kirkpatrick was asking him, Zuckerberg had to begin his speech by convincing the public that the 19 million dollars spent on the purchase of WhatsApp was a good investment: "I think it is a good acquisition, that it fits perfectly into Facebook's strategy and that we have paid the value that the company really has."
Holograms were designed more than 65 years ago by the physicist Dennis Gabor and holographic techniques, despite becoming popular with the passage of time, have advanced on very diverse fronts such as microwave holography (used in radar systems) or holograms acoustic (used in seismic applications). Now, thanks to a new study, holograms are much closer to ordinary people.
Danni Büchner is invited to Sam Dylan's Halloween party. But the "Goodbye Germany" emigrant has no desire for many other party guests. And find clear words.
