Nos ltimos tempos inmeros suportes de dados portteis tm surgido, como o caso da massicao das Pendrives e dos Discos Portteis USB. Como as suas capacidades de memria tm vindo a aumentar, ao mesmo tempo que suas dimenses reduziam, levou a que programadores criassem ou modicassem o software existente de modo a serem incluidos nesses dispositivos de levar a qualquer lado. Alguns deles permitem viajar na Internet (p.e. o Firefox), gravar CDs e DVDs (p.e. o MicroBurner), utilizar como o moce (p.e. OpenOce), etc. Prova disso podemos encontrar nos seguintes endereos: [1]http://portableapps.com/nodee [2]http://www.portablefreeware.com/.

A Fsica do Spiderman 3 (2007-11-05 02:28)
[1]
(...)
Na cena de combate (cena 43 do DVD), Spiderman sobrevive a uma queda de 80 andares sem sofrer qualquer tipo de leso. Utilizando a Segunda Lei de Newton (Fnet = m a) calculemos a fora que o cho exerce sobre o Spiderman no impacto. Primeiro de tudo, para um prdio de 80 andares, Spidey estar perto da sua velocidade terminal antes do embate. No caso de um paraquedista, ou do Spiderman em queda, 60 m/s (...). (...) foras que actuam no nosso superheri durante o contacto com o cho (...): o seu peso que actua no sentido descendente, e a fora que o cho exerce sobre ele no sentido oposto. (...) Aplicando a segunda 16
2.6. November
BlogBook
lei obtemos: Fnet = Fground m g = m a onde m g o peso do Spiderman (m a sua massa (...) 70 kg e g a acelerao devida gravidade), (...). Como a maioria das colises de objectos slidos (como concreto) ocorre em escalas temporais de aproximadamente um centessimo de segundo podemos calcular a fora do cho, Fground, da seguinte maneira: Fground = m g + m a = m g + m v/t = (70 kg)(9.8 m/s2) + (70 kg)(60 m/s)/0.01 s H 420,000 N (so 47 toneladas!). A acelerao do Spidey antes do impacto de 6000 m/s2 ou 600 g s . Como todos os ossos partem quando o corpo experimenta foras superiores a 90,000 N, (...) podemos ver que o Spiderman no tem um esqueleto igual ao do comum dos mortais! (...) Em Spiderman 3 o nosso heri sofre pelo menos meia dzia de colises na sua cabea com vrios objectos slidos. Um dos mais violentos (cena 47), (...) a velocidade do objecto estima-se nos 15 m/s. (...) como praticamente toda a fora exercida na cabea (em aproximadamente 0.01 segundo), a fora sobre a sua cabea ser de: Fnet = m a = m v/t = (70 kg)(15m/s)/0.01 s = 105,000 N. De acordo com algumas experincias, um impacto directo sobre o esqueleto que exceda 873 N resultar sempre numa fractura (de facto o esqueleto poder fracturar com foras inferiores a esta), mas o esqueleto do nosso Spidey capaz de suportar foras 120 vezes maior. Suponho que quando M.J. diz que o Peter uma cabea dura, dever querer dizer isso mesmo!

O nosso descontentamento (2008-03-08 12:39)

Manifestamente, os docentes sairam rua para exprimir o seu descontentamento geral perante as polticas deseducativas que este Ministrio tenta implementar. O certo, e como professor que sou, evidencio que todas elas eram para serem aplicadas ontem. No h tempo nem margem para discuso. Alis, no deste governo, mas tem sido assim desde sempre. Burocracia atrs de buracracia tem-se entupido o sistema. E os alunos? em que plano cam? uma vez mais, de cada dia que passa aprendem muito pouco. Seno vejamos: Os programas so extensos preciso correr. No venham com histrias... so para cumprir. Os alunos passam mais tempo nas escolas. No tm tempo para brincar, para conversar uns com os outros, para crescer e interagir em grupo. Benditos os professores que, em vez de substituio, vo com eles para a rua brincar um pouco. Os pais depositam na escola os lhos e por vezes nem do desempenho escolar dos seus educandos querem saber. Eu sei do que falo, j fui director de turma e fazia as actas das reunies com os pais, onde estes as assinavam. Garanto-vos eram poucos. O desrespeito da sociedade em geral pela nossa classe. Um pouco pela imagem negativa e pouco prossional que alguns deixaram transparecer. Mas uma coisa garanto, por todas as escolas que passei, 90 % dos professores eram cumpridores e faltavam pouco. S o extritamente necessrio, no fosse esta uma classe onde a maioria, sem discriminao, so do sexo femenino. A inadaptao dos currculos / programas escolares ao nosso universo social. Fala-se tanto em competncias, mas continuamos a avaliar objectivamente os alunos e o currculo no se desenvolveu nos programas. A formao deciente, de modo a implementar os currculos actuais. Esta formao poderia passar por realizar encontros de professores, de cada grupo disciplinar, em locais a combinar, e por zonas , no m de cada ano lectivo de modo a discutir resultados e novos mtodos de implementao / avaliao de estratgias. Actualizao / formao orientadas pelas faculdades de modo a melhorar a realizao de tarefas a serem implementadas na sala de aula. A contratao de professores, mais uma vez o descartvel desta classe que poderiam dar mais se o governo o permitisse. Porque muitos deles tambm tem famlia e esto longe. Por vezes, os pais esquecem que estes professores passam mais tempo com os seus educandos do que com os prprios lhos. Sacrifcio... muitas vezes ganhando pouco e a espera que a escola os possam ajudar a completar o horrio. Hoje dizem que fomos 100 mil, e a ministra em entrevista na SIC diz no ceder, amanh no sei quantos seremos. 21

Milky Way is bigger, more dense and faster than previously thought (2009-01-07 07:03)
[1] American scientists discovered that the Milky Way is 15 % larger in width, 50 % more dense and turns at a speed nearly 15 % higher than previously thought. These data were presented by researchers from the National Radio Observatory and the Center for Astronomy and Astrophysics Harvard-Smithsonian a meeting of the American Society of Astronomy held in Long Beach, California. in Lusa image from [2]NASA It has more weight and be faster, it also has greater gravitational force and therefore the greater the potential for conict with neighboring galaxies, like Andromeda, earlier than expected, even though the billions of light years away, warn the researchers. The fact that scientic observations are made from within the galaxy makes the measurements and study of its structure, which makes it easier for the other galaxies. Previously, the value of the magnitude of the Milky Way was calculated from indirect measurements, but the radio-telescopes VLBA the National Science Foundation in the United States now can record images with high quality and make direct measurements of distances and movements regardless of other factors such as brightness. In images captured by radio telescopes, scientists are located in regions of the Milky Way profuse creation of stars in which the gas molecules increase radio broadcasts. These areas are bright for the brand of radio-telescope, which determines the three-dimensional movements of these regions, which mostly does not follow a circular path as you move the galaxy, but elliptical and a lower speed to those described by other regions . It was thus possible to calculate the speed at which the Milky Way rotates around its center is about 914,000 kilometers per hour, 15 percent more than the 791,800 miles per hour that were accepted as a measure for decades. The team of researchers also suggested that the galaxy has four arms of gas and dust in spiral in which stars are formed, not two. in SIC Portuguese version of this article can be found [3]here.

Methane in red planet - Mars (2009-01-21 08:20)
[1] Image of the red planet, Mars - image from NASA
On Earth, 90 percent of the gas is produced by living beings There are methane on Mars in the summer, will be a sign of life? 15.01.2009 - 19h32 Clara Barata, Reuters There are large quantities of methane and water vapor in the atmosphere of Mars during the summer - which is the best evidence so far that there may be life on the red planet. This gas does not survive long in the atmosphere. On Earth, 90 percent of the methane has biological origin. On Mars, methane may have biological or geochemistry origin, says the team of Michael Mumma, of the NASA Goddard Center. The team is not the rst to detect methane on Mars, but is the rst to associate it to the time when the temperatures go up, the gas plume seems to arise in some areas, when the summer comes and were detected up to 19 tons of this gas in the atmosphere, using spectrometers. These instruments can measure the gases in the atmosphere by analyzing its signature feature in the electromagnetic spectrum. Until now, there are no known natural processes on the surface of any planet to produce methane. Therefore, the presence of signicant amounts of methane would require the recent release of gas from reservoirs below the surface. But its origin may be biological or not, the researchers write in Science. However, it is underground on Mars that water, and perhaps there may be underground microbes that produce methane: on Earth there are millions of years ago. translated from [2]Publico

Climate warming gases rising faster than expected (2009-02-15 15:03)
[1] English version [2]USA Today: Despite widespread concern over global warming, humans are adding carbon to the atmosphere even faster than in the 1990s, researchers warned Saturday. Carbon dioxide and other gases added to the air by industrial and other activities have been blamed for rising temperatures, increasing worries about possible major changes in weather and climate. Carbon emissions have been growing at 3.5 % per year since 2000, up sharply from the 0.9 % per year in the 1990s, [3]Christopher Field of the Carnegie Institution for Science told the [4]annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

Global Warning: Polar Ice melting faster (2009-02-26 05:20)

English version: In previous information, published in this blog, was knowed that, compared to the 90s, there was an increase in carbon dioxide emissions, with implications for increased global warming. This increase, higher than expected, also inuences the melting of the polar circles, during the summer months, as shown in the report of the [1]International Polar Year. This melting will increase the level of the sea, and probably a worsening of weather conditions worldwide.

GOCE by ESA (2009-03-18 07:08)

English version: Yesterday it was launched the GOCE (Gravity eld and steady-state Ocean Circulation Explorer) developed by the European Space Agency (ESA). The main instrument of the payload is an electrostatic gravity gradiometers, of last generation, that incorporates six highly sensitive accelerometers, mounted in pairs along three perpendicular axes in a carbon-carbon structure ultra-stable. The mission will measure not the actual gravity but small dierences in gravity between the pairs of accelerometers that are 50 cm distance between them.

One mission, many benets The mapping of the gravity eld of the Earth with high precision will be useful to all areas of Earth sciences. In the eld of geodesy, an unied model of reference in measurements of height, allowing a better mapping of sea level changes. In the eld of oceanography, is to get a better knowledge of the eld of gravity, will reduce the current uncertainty concerning about the transfer of heat and mass of the oceans, resulting in huge improvements in global models about movement of mass of water in the oceans and climate forecasting. The GOCE will also improve our knowledge about the rocky substrate of the ice caps in Greenland and Antarctica. In the eld of geophysics, combining the results of GOCE with data of magnetism, topography and seismology will help to produce maps in 3D, with great detail, of changes in density in the earths crust and upper mantle, improving our understanding about the processes that are responsible for natural disasters. source [2]ESA Verso Portuguesa: Ontem foi lanado o GOCE (Gravity eld and steady-state Ocean Circulation Explorer) desenvolvido pela Agncia Espacial Europeia (ESA).

The development of fuels from algae is a trend that is beginning to gain strength in the U.S., where a small business become a reality project that Exxon Mobil, the largest company in the oil industry in America, only now beginning to study. The PetroAlgae is one of the pioneers in the U.S. in getting fuel through the cultivation of algae as well as other bodies. This and other companies received with open arms the announcement of the powerful that Exxon Mobil will explore how to produce this fuel. We are excited about the step taken by Exxon, because it brings more attention to the industry and what we do, the agency Efe said the spokesman of PetroAlgae, Andrew Beck, during an event on global technology in New York.

LED bulbs by Panasonic (2009-09-30 02:34)

The new products use Panasonics own heat dissipation technology to increase the bulbs energy-eciency. Generally speaking, LEDs luminous eciency increases as temperature decreases. So it is important to lower and optimize the temperature of an LED package to achieve higher luminous eciency. By applying alumite treatment to the surface, Panasonic successfully increased heat dissipation to lower the temperate of the LED package. Combining this technology with the design which tightly joins the LED package and the casing, the company has achieved the industrys highest energy eciency in LED bulbs1). Also, when used as a downlight, the 6.9 W standard type LED bulbs deliver the brightness equivalent to 60 W incandescent bulbs5). That means it can save up to 2,000 yen per year on energy bills. The 4.0 W standard and 5.5 W compact LED bulbs produce the output comparable to 40 W incandescents and the 7.6 W standard LED bulbs have the brightness of 60 W incandescents when used as a downlight6).
Panasonic also made the new LED bulbs the lightest2) in the industry by making the casing thinner and reducing the amount of aluminum used in the product. The standard size E26 base bulb weighs only 100 g and the compact size E17 base bulb weighs 50 g. Further, Panasonic employed its own thermal analysis technology to optimize the heat dissipating conguration (heat sink) to create the most compact E26 base LED bulbs in terms of length and outer diameter. The new LED lamps, including the industrys rst E17 base LED bulbs, will easily t into existing xtures with which other replacement bulbs did not physically match. 50

The E26 base LED bulbs have a long lifespan of up to 40,000 hours. That means they last for about 19 years when used for 5.5 hours a day. The E17 base LED bulbs have about 20,000 hour life span. The new LED bulbs also feature a durable glass globe using glass manufacturing technology Panasonic accumulated over the years. They emit virtually no UV or IR radiation. The 7.6 W standard type and the 5.5 W compact type LED bulbs are dimmable from 10 percent to 100 percent. Notes: 1) The standard type LDA7D-A1 LED bulb, which produces the brightness equivalent to a 40 W incandescent lamp when used without xtures, has luminous eciency of 82.6 lm/W and standard type LDA4D-A1 LED bulb, which produces the brightness equivalent to a 30 W incandescent lamp when used without xtures, has luminous eciency of 85.0 lm/w, as of September 10, 2009. 2) As a standard type LED bulb, as of September 10, 2009. 3) In terms of length and outer diameter. 4) As a compact type LED bulb (E17 base) which produces the brightness equivalent to a 25 W minikrypton when used without xtures. 5) Direct lighting when used with the LB72630Z xture by Panasonic Electric Works (PEW). 6) Direct lighting when used with PEWs LB72106 (4.0 W LED bulb), LB72630Z (7.6 W LED bulb) and LB74059 (5.5 W LED bulb) xtures. in [1]Panasonic

X-Rays day (2010-01-05 09:56)

X-radiation (composed of X-rays) is a form of [1]electromagnetic radiation. X-rays have a [2]wavelength in the range of 10 to 0.01 [3]nanometers, corresponding to [4]frequencies in the range 3 1016 Hz to 3 1019 Hz and energies in the range 120 [5]eV to 120 [6]keV. They are shorter in wavelength than [7]UV rays. In many languages, X-radiation is called Rntgen radiation after [8]Wilhelm Conrad Rntgen, who is generally credited as their discoverer, and who had called them X-rays to signify an unknown type of radiation. [9]Wilhelm Conrad Rntgen is usually credited as the discoverer of X-rays because he was the rst to systematically study them, though he is not the rst to have observed their eects. He is also the one who gave them the name X-rays, though many referred to these as Rntgen rays for several decades after their discovery. X-rays were found emanating from [10]Crookes tubes, experimental [11]discharge tubes invented around 1875, by scientists investigating the [12]cathode rays, that is energetic [13]electron beams, that were rst created in the tubes. Crookes tubes created electrons by [14]ionization of the residual air in the tube by a high DC [15]voltage of anywhere between a few [16]kilovolts and 100 kV. This voltage accelerated the electrons coming from the [17]cathode to a high enough velocity that they created X-rays when they struck the [18]anode or the glass wall of the tube. Many of the early Crookes tubes undoubtedly radiated X-rays, because early researchers noticed eects that were attributable to them, as detailed below. [19]Wilhelm Rntgen was the rst to systematically study them, in 1895. Among the important early researchers in X-rays were [20]Ivan Pulyui, [21]William Crookes, [22]Johann Wilhelm Hittorf, [23]Eugen Goldstein, [24]Heinrich Hertz, [25]Philipp Lenard, [26]Hermann von Helmholtz,[27]Nikola Tesla, [28]Thomas Edison, [29]Charles Glover Barkla, [30]Max von Laue, and [31]Wilhelm Conrad Rntgen.

CO2 to CH4 (2010-01-06 08:06)
English version: Japanese researchers announced today that they had discovered a way to turn carbon dioxide (CO2) captured and stored in the soil to methane (CH4), which can help the combat against greenhouse eect and produce natural gas.
This conversion process is to capture the CO2 underground, using a bacterium, discovered o the northern coast of the large Japanese island of Honshu, on the seabed, to convert CO2 into CH4. The biggest diculty is to strengthen the bacteria to accelerate the generation of methane, explained a spokesman for the Japanese research agency. In its natural state, this transformation will take several thousands of years, but the researchers hope to develop technology to reduce this period to one hundred years. So could become one of the greatest hopes in the ght against global warming. imagem [1]ecodebate Verso Portuguesa: Investigadores japoneses anunciaram, hoje, ter descoberto um meio de transformar o dixido de carbono (CO2) captado e armazenado no solo em metano (CH4), o que pode ajudar a combater o efeito estufa e a fabricar gs natural. 58

Newton s apple
a physics legend (2010-01-19 05:19)
Home to a famous apple tree In 1666, a young Isaac Newton was waiting out the plague in his mother s garden in Lincolnshire when an apple fell from a tree.

Chewing gum and helium experiment (2010-02-01 07:59)

There is a YouTube video about an experiment with gum and helium, creating a balloon that can lift a person.
[1] Using the law of hydrostatics, the driving force must be at least equal (as can be seen in a certain part of the video) to the weight of the man with the balloon.. So, P=I Replacing the weights by m g and knowing that we have [2] The mass of the man will be [3] Substituting the values [4] [5] we obtain 66

The Physics of Curling (2010-03-07 09:33)

Verso Portuguesa: (Traduo do artigo original indicado em cima) O curling um desporto cujo objectivo, no nal de cada rodada, colocar as pedras o mais prximo possvel do centro do ringue. Do ponto de lanamento at o centro do anel de cerca de 97 ps (29,56 m). O atrito com o gelo, leva a pedra a parar nesse espao. Por que no estimar a quantidade de atrito do gelo contra a pedra? O atrito intrinsecamente um fenmeno muito complexo, mas frequentemente uma boa aproximao dizer que uma fora no sentido oposto do movimento, com uma magnitude proporcional fora da superfcie sobre o objecto igual fora da gravidade, no presente caso. Geralmente chamada de fora normal, porque normal, neste contexto, signica perpendicular, i.e. a fora perpendicular superfcie onde se movimenta a pedra. A relao entre essas duas foras (fora de atrito e a fora normal) o coeciente de atrito. Assim, podemos escrever a equao que descreve a fora de atrito:
Onde mu grego o coeciente de atrito, e a massa m da pedra vezes a acelerao da gravidade g a fora normal. Sabemos tambm, porque usamos tantas vezes, que um objecto em movimento acelerado a 1D obedece as equaes padro de movimento acelerado:
Aqui d a distncia de viagem da pedra, t o tempo que leva a pedra a completar a sua viagem, a a acelerao devido ao atrito, v0 a velocidade inicial. Quando a pedra termina a sua viagem a velocidade ser 0, da o 0 para a velocidade nal na ltima equao. Sabemos que a fora igual massa vezes acelerao, deste modo a acelerao devido ao atrito ser a fora de atrito dividida pela massa: a = * g. Mas no se sabe a velocidade inicial. No temos nenhuma forma de medir isso. Mas temos o tempo total da viagem. Se ouvirmos os comentadores, 24 segundos ou mais uma linha tpica de tempo Hog 68

line to tee line . A partir da, pode-se manipular algebricamente as equaes para eliminar a velocidade inicial e resolver o coeciente de atrito:
Como esperado, quanto mais uma pedra leva a percorrer uma determinada distncia, menor o atrito. O curling usa unidades do Sistema Ingls, assim com g = 32 ps / s 2, d = 97 metros, e t = 24 segundos, calculando tem-se = 0,011. Este um valor extremamente pequeno de atrito, menor do que em teon vs teon. Pode ser que a aproximao que zemos para atrito no to grande, ou pode ser que o granito no gelo tem um pequeno coeciente de atrito.

20 years of Hubble (2010-04-13 10:12)

The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) is a [1]space telescope that was carried into [2]orbit by the [3]space shuttle in April 1990. Although not the rst space telescope, Hubble is one of the largest and most versatile, and is well-known as both a vital research tool and a public relations boon for [4]astronomy.
Launched in 24 April 1990, the HST carried ve scientic instruments: the Wide Field and Planetary Camera (WF/PC), Goddard High Resolution Spectrograph (GHRS), High Speed Photometer (HSP), Faint Object Camera (FOC) and the Faint Object Spectrograph (FOS). WF/PC was a high-resolution imaging device primarily intended for optical observations. It was built by NASAs [5]Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and incorporated a set of 48 [6]lters isolating [7]spectral lines of particular astrophysical interest. The instrument contained eight [8]charge-coupled device (CCD) chips divided between two cameras, each using four CCDs. Important discoveries 70

[...]Before the launch of HST, estimates of the Hubble constant typically had [13]errors of up to 50 %, but Hubble measurements of Cepheid variables in the [14]Virgo Cluster and other distant galaxy clusters provided a measured value with an accuracy of 10 %. While Hubble helped to rene estimates of the age of the universe, it also cast doubt on theories about its future. Astronomers used the telescope to observe distant [15]supernovae and uncovered evidence that, far from decelerating under the inuence of [16]gravity, the expansion of the universe may in fact be [17]accelerating. This acceleration was later measured more accurately by other ground-based and space-based telescopes, conrming Hubbles nding. The high-resolution spectra and images provided by the HST have been especially well-suited to establishing the prevalence of [18]black holes in the nuclei of nearby galaxies. [...] in [19]wikipedia

The exponential growth of human population peaked in 1987. That year 87.01 million more people were added to the Earth. Since 1987, the population has declined on average by 2.1 million less people added per year. In this year of 2000 the population will increase by 60.1 million people. If we maintain this 13 year average of 2.1 million less people added per year, we will peak in population reaching zero population growth in 2029 with 6.90 billion people.
The decline of human population has been even more dramatic over the last 6 years. In 1994 we added 78.5 million more people, this year we will add 60.1 million. This is a decline of 3 million less people added per year. If we maintain this 6 year average of 3 million less people added per year, we will peak in population reaching zero population growth in 2020 with 6.64 billion people.
In [7]http://www.overpopulation.net/ United Nations expects that well have ten billions of people in 2050 and we rich the limit of 11 billions in 2100.

The 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Andre Geim and Russian Konstantin Novoselov for its innovative work on the two-dimensional graphene, materials useful for the development of more ecient electronic devices such as computers and solar panels. The American Richard Heck and the Japanese Ei-ichi Negishi and Suzuki Akira researchers were honored with the Nobel Prize in chemistry, thanks to the work on more ecient ways of linking carbon atoms to complex molecules. These three scientists have developed a tool to create such complex molecules as those found in nature and which were used to develop new drugs and revolutionary materials like plastic. According to the Swedish Academy, the work of these laureates are used all over the world both for the commercial production of drugs as for the electronics industry.

An 8-inch crack has been spotted in the foam covering the intertank section of the shuttle Discoverys external tank. Engineers are assessing that situation, which has developed since the tank was drained of its supercold propellants today. Mission Management Team prelaunch chairman Mike Moses says ocials determined it just wasnt prudent to push toward a Monday launch attempt given the amount of work ahead to resolve the hydrogen leak. Moses says the foam crack is located on the front side of the tank facing the orbiter and just above the bipod where Discoverys nose is attached. He said its too soon to know what might need to be done with that crack. from spaceightnow image credits: NASA

Baby Black Hole dicovered (2010-11-16 05:11)

[1][499952main_sn1979c_665.jpg] Image: NASA
NASA said yesterday at a press conference that the Chandra space observatory appears to have found the youngest black hole yet found. The black hole should be a baby at the tender age of 30 years. The Black Hole was formed after the supernova, SN 1979C. The star had a mass 20 times greater than our Sun. The supernova was detected in 1979 in the galaxy M100, which is located 50 million light years away from Earth. The Supernova actually took place some 50 million years ago, but as the light took that long to reach us, we only saw 30 years ago. So, looking for the same site now, we see what looks like a black hole young, 30 years - since we saw the supernova until today (actually, the black hole is 50 million years, but the light that surrounds it takes time to get to us). Look for objects in space, you see them as they were when the light left them, and not as they are now (When looking at the sun, for example, always see the sun as it was eight minutes before).

Antihydrogen trapped at CERN (2010-11-18 04:26)
[1] Physicists working at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva, Switzerland, have succeeded in trapping antihydrogen the antimatter equivalent of the hydrogen atom a milestone that could soon lead to experiments on a form of matter that disappeared mysteriously shortly after the birth of the universe 14 billion years ago. An octupole magnet was critical to trapping antihydrogen atoms. A simple octupole magnetic eld is produced by eight bar magnets in a plane with their north and south poles arrayed radially to create a magnetic minimum at the center. The antihydrogen atom is trapped in the center because of its magnetic moment, which itself is equivalent to a tiny bar magnet. The bar magnets above and below the octupole plane in this artists rendition represent the mirror magnets that keep the atoms from squirting out the ends of the trap. (Katie Bertsche) The rst articially produced low energy antihydrogen atoms consisting of a positron, or antimatter electron, orbiting an antiproton nucleus were created at CERN in 2002, but until now the atoms have struck normal matter and annihilated in a ash of gamma-rays within microseconds of creation. image and text from [2]berkeley.edu read the [3]FULL ARTICLE

How much more ecient? If I had a million pounds of hydrogen, and I fused the entire million pounds into helium, how much would turn into energy, and how much would turn into (helium) waste? Id get about 7,000 poundsworth of energy (which, by E=mc2, is a lot, but Id still get 993,000 pounds of waste. 0.7 % eciency isnt so great, all things considered. But thats where antimatter comes in. [...] if I brought a million pounds of fuel on board 500,000 pounds of hydrogen and 500,000 pounds of antihydrogen Id get perfect eciency: 1,000,000 pounds worth of energy and no waste.

It seems something like the X-Files... Scientists are proposing a new hypothetical particle that could solve two cosmic mysteries at once: what dark matter is made of, and why there s enough matter for us to exist at all. We know you have to have these two ingredients to the universe, both atoms and dark matter, said [1]physicist Kris Sigurdson of the University of British Columbia, coauthor of a paper describing the new particle.

Some cosmologists are thinking that the same amount of matter and antimatter was created in the Big Bang, with particles and antiparticles immediately started colliding and extinguishing each other. But the fact that stars, planets exists is a proof that wasnt happened. If matter and antimatter were created in equal amounts in the early universe, they would all have annihilated [each other], said [2]theoretical physicist Sean Tulin of the Canadian physics institute TRIUMF. There has to be some asymmetry that was left over. Together with physicists [3]Hooman Davoudiasl at Brookhaven National Lab and [4]David Morrissey of TRIUMF, Tulin and Sigurdson suggest a way to solve the problem of missing antimatter: Hide it away as dark matter. The details are published in the Nov. 19 [5]Physical Review Letters. What we know about dark matter? Well, what we know about dark matter is that it is mysterious stu that makes up a quarter of the energy density of the universe and refuses to interact with regular matter except through gravity. The most popular candidate for dark matter is a theoretical weakly interacting massive particle, or [6]WIMP, that connects only with the weak nuclear force and gravity, making it undetectable. The new theoretical particle is completely dierent from the WIMP idea, Tulin said. The proposed particle, named simply X, has a separate antiparticle called anti-X. Equal amounts of X and anti-X were created in the Big Bang, and then decayed to lighter particles. Each X decayed into either a neutron or two dark-matter particles, called Y and . Every anti-X converted to an anti-neutron or some anti-dark matter. But the hypothetical X particle would rather decay into ordinary matter than dark matter, so it produced more neutrons than dark matter. Anti-X preferred decaying into anti-dark matter, and so produced more of it. After all the particles and anti-particles that could nd each other collided and eliminated each other, the universe was left with some extra neutrons and a corresponding number of extra anti-dark matter particles. The protons and neutrons can t annihilate completely with their antiparticles, because there s not enough to annihilate with, Tulin said. The same story happens in the hidden sector as well&. Some dark matter can t annihilate with anything. So you re left with some extra dark matter in the universe. Conveniently, this picture could explain another particle-physics puzzle: why there is only ve times more dark matter than regular matter in the universe. To physicists, ve is a really small number. If dark matter and regular matter didn t spring from similar origins, there s no reason why there should be roughly the same amount of both of them.
