Why not translated into the Google Glass?

To use this application (currently only available in English), simply say "OK Glass, Recognize this" ( "Glass OK, admit it" ) and to take his smartphone near the person you are talking to that the transcription of words appears on the display of his glasses.

"This system allows us to focus on the movements of the face and gestures of their interlocutor, told CNet Professor Jim Foley, one of the project participants. If people hard of hearing include the statement, conversation can continue without having to wait for the subtitle.

However, if I missed a word I can take a look at the transcript, read one or two words I need, and return to my conversation."

Ultimately, the research team would like to go further than simple transcription conversation also incorporating simultaneous translation. In the meantime, you can download it for subtitling in English only on the site Google Glass.

The Mach-Zehnder interferometer

Wojciech Hubert Zurek and Hans Dieter Zeh were of a different opinion and, in the 1970s, they proposed a solution within the framework of what the theory of decoherence, verified in 1996 by known today Nobel Prize in Physics Serge Haroche and colleagues.

There are many other paradoxes and puzzles in quantum physics especially when one tries to find out what exactly measuring a characteristic of a quantum system and what it reveals. Physicists are still very divided on this issue and some, like Max Tegmark , prefer to think in the context of the interpretation of Everett called multiple rather than one built in 1927 by Bohr, Heisenberg and Born worlds.

Two years ago, the famous Yakir Aharonov and his colleagues had suggested another thought experiment designed to probe more deeply the mysteries of quantum theory and its predictions in some situations. Physicists at that time were introducing the concept of the quantum Cheshire cat . This is, of course, a blink of an eye the cat that appears in the famous novel Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll.

The Mach-Zehnder interferometer

Reasoning researchers confirmed that the quantum world is as surreal as the universe of Carroll. In the latter, the Cheshire Cat has the ability to disappear leaving temporarily float in the air as her smile, which is so divorced from the animal. According to Aharonov and his colleagues, if we took a photon (quantum cat) and its polarization state (smile), it is possible to use an interferometer Mach-Zehnder interferometer to measure in a place to not be a photon , its polarization. In other words, an experiment with a quantum Cheshire cat somehow uses two detectors, one of which measures the presence of a photon in one place while its polarization is measured by another detector, in a place where it can not be found.

Physicists like to give original names to certain physical phenomena that appear strange and captivate the imagination, such as twins or Langevin Schrödinger's cat. An experiment that was conducted shows that one can separate in space, a neutron spin her like the smile of the cat 's Alice in Wonderland can separate from the animal invented by Lewis Carroll. There are many cats that quantum Cheshire called.

The paradox of Schrödinger's cat was originally a thought experiment designed to demonstrate that the magical laws of quantum physics involved a cat can be both alive and dead in some circumstances. When he proposed in 1935, Erwin Schrödinger wanted to show that the mysteries of the wave-particle duality and the quantification of the energy of physical systems were incompletely resolved by the so-called Copenhagen interpretation of equations of quantum mechanics . Like Einstein , he thought something was missing and that they were only approximations of the true quantum laws.

Octopus: 53 months for hatching eggs

53 months for hatching eggs

During the 53 months of incubation, the mother had to ensure that the eggs are bathed continuously in a well-oxygenated water, and prevent them from being covered with mud. It was also protected from predators . During that time, researchers have never seen the female to leave her eggs or feed. Instead, it did not seem to be interested in small crabs or shrimp around her, she lost weight and her skin became paler and loose.

This is not surprising in these cephalopods : Most octopus females lay only once in their life and usually die shortly after hatching. During brooding, octopus stop eating or drastically reduce their food intake. Here, scientists had no evidence that the animal was feeding during breeding. That's why they were wondering how the octopus was able to live so long, while low temperatures and inactivity lead to energy needs rather weak.

A rather long life expectancy

For kids there are of course advantages to being incubated so long: these octopuses have no larval stage to hatching, they are able to survive by themselves and hunt small prey. From the point of view of evolution, the species would have found a balance between the benefits of a slow development and the ability of the mother to survive for years with very little food, if at all.

But this research also suggests a fairly long shelf life for this species: it could be one of cephalopods living as long as most octopuses generally live a year or two. For the researchers, "the brooding also provides an extension of the life of an adult far exceeds most projections of longevity cephalopods".

Record: a mother octopus incubates the eggs over 4 years

Record: a mother octopus incubates the eggs over 4 years

That would be a record in the animal world: an octopus from the ocean floor looks after her eggs for more than 4 years, small putting years to develop. The fate of such a super mom is inevitably death.

Taking care of her eggs for 4 years by eating very little, if at all, this may seem impossible. Yet that is what would an octopus Abyss. In the cold, dark waters underwater , metabolic processes are often long indeed. Therefore embryonic development could be very slow, but to what extent? Researchers at the University of Rhode Island and Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute had the opportunity to observe the nesting of an octopus in Monterey Bay, off the coast of California. They describe their observations in an article published in Plos One.

In May 2007, during an exploration into the canyon of Monterey, the researchers found an octopus female of the species Graneledone boreopacifica clinging to a rock face at 1,397 m depth currently monitoring her eggs. Subsequently, the researchers went back to inspect this place 18 times in four and a half years. Each time, they found the same recognizable octopus with its scars on the body. Gradually, eggs swelled and young octopuses grew.

The researchers saw the mother for the last time in September 2011 One month later, she was gone, leaving behind about 160 empty egg capsules. Therefore, it would have hatched eggs for about four and a half years, or longer than any animal known to date.

In short: a penguin - fossil - 2m found in Antarctica

In short: a penguin - fossil - 2m found in Antarctica

Current record size for a penguin: 2 m to 115 kg. Pet name: Palaeeudyptes klekowskii . Habitat: the Antarctic Peninsula there are 40 million years.

An Argentine team Museum of La Plata has been lucky exploring the island of Seymour, at the end of the peninsula Antarctica , near the James Ross Island . In 2012, paleontologists have discovered the remains of thousands of penguin fossils dated from 37 to 40 million years. Recently, Acosta Hospitaleche and Marcelo Reguero, members of the museum team from La Plata, described the skeleton of a giant penguin , belonging to a species already known Palaeeudyptes klekowskii most comprehensive to date.

"It was a wonderful time for the penguins , who was represented by 10-14 species on the Antarctic coast, " she explained to New Scientist . The researcher announced studying additional bone, belonging to the wing and foot, and especially great. Comparing with other species skeletons fossil , Acosta Hospitaleche estimates the size of the animal to 2 m and weight 115 kg.

If these values ​​are confirmed (for the proportions of skeletal bone may vary from one species to another, particularly over such long periods), so that P klekowskii would be the largest known but it is not alone in its class penguin. The fossil record has provided several species in stature and nose long and pointed. Found in New Zealand, Kairuku grebneffi reached 1.30 meters at Peru Icadyptes salasi measured 1.50 m. With 46 kg, 1.25 m and a short beak, the emperor penguin , the largest current auks seems puny.

the formation of intestinal carcinoma

The researchers therefore administered orally , 3 mg / kg to mice that developed capsaicin many gastrointestinal tumors. Result: taking capsaicin inhibited the activation of the EGF receptor and suppressed the proliferation of cells epithelial. The treatment also allowed the mice to live longer, with a gain of about 30% in the life. The treatment was even more effective when combined with the celecoxib drug anti-inflammatory non-steroidal inhibitor of COX-2, used in the treatment of pain and symptoms of osteoarthritis .

Therefore, capsaicin eliminate intestinal tumors by stimulating the TRPV1 receptor. For Eyal Raz, "our data suggest that people at high risk of developing recurrent intestinal tumors could benefit from the chronic activation of TRPV1" . The researchers therefore propose to administer TRPV1 agonists (such as capsaicin) with a COX-2 inhibitor to prevent the formation of intestinal carcinoma.
