We review in this talk some aspects of the exciting field of hyperon polarization phenomena in high energy reactions, over the last twenty years or so. On the experimental side, a large amount of significant polarization data for hyperon…
A few aspects of the mechanism of confinement of color by monopole condensation are reviewed.
This is a review of recent observational and theoretical developments related to accreting neutron stars and black holes in binary systems.
The status and perspectives of Standard Model Higgs searches are discussed.
Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) constitute a breakthrough in modern chemistry. The recent success in the synthesis and total structure determination of the precise-composition GNPs provides exciting opportunities for fundamental studies and…
This paper reviews the chemistry of star-forming regions, with an emphasis on the formation of high-mass stars. We first outline the basic molecular processes in dense clouds, their implementation in chemical models, and techniques to…
The study of the physical and chemical properties of gas infall motion in the molecular clumps helps us understand the initial stages of star formation. We used the FTS wide-sideband mode of the IRAM 30-m telescope to observe nine infall…
Water's phase diagram displays enormous complexity with currently 17 experimentally-confirmed polymorphs of ice and several more predicted computationally. For almost 120 years, it has been a stomping ground for scientific discovery and ice…
Using over 89 million astrometric observations of 349,737 numbered minor planets, an attempt was made to determine the masses of 230 of them by simultaneously solving for corrections to all orbital elements and the masses. For 132 minor…
We consider theoretically the energy loss of electrons scattered to high angles when assuming that the primary beam can be limited to a single atom. We discuss the possibility of identifying the isotopes of light elements and of extracting…
The advent of m class telescopes has allowed the detailed spectroscopic study of sizeable numbers of extremely metal-poor Galactic stars which are the witnesses of the formation of the early Galaxy. Their chemical composition displays some…
Much has been written about the golden ratio $\phi=\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2}$ and this strange number appears mysteriously in many mathematical calculations. In this article, we review the appearance of this number in the graph theory. More…
A brief historical introduction for the enigmatic number Zero is given. The discussions are for popular consumption.
All the already known results on self descriptive numbers, together with the demonstration of the uniqueness for bases greater than 6, are here obtained through a systematic scheme of proof and not trial and error. The proof is also…
In this paper, we present the first extended catalogue of far-infrared fluxes of Galactic bubbles. Fluxes were estimated for 1814 bubbles, defined here as the `golden sample', and were selected from the Milky Way Project First Data Release…
We present a new catalogue of symbiotic stars. In our list we include 188 symbiotic stars as well as 28 objects suspected of being symbiotic. For each star, we present basic observational material: coordinates, V and K magnitudes,…
We present a detailed abundance analysis of high-resolution ultraviolet echelle spectra of five subdwarf B stars obtained with HST-STIS The goal of our observations was to test the hypothesis that pulsations in sdBs are correlated to the…
Due to the similar physical and chemical properties, isotopes are usually hard to separate. On the other hand, the isotope shifts are very well separated in a high-resolution spectrum, making them possible to be addressed individually by…
Gravity plays an important part in the experiments and discoveries of the modern world. But how was it discovered? Surely Newton and Einstein were not the only people to observe it and account for it. It had been a long path before the full…
In this paper, we prove the conjecture that if there is an odd perfect number, then there are infinitely many of them.
