Nanotechnology is the results of the ongoing technological pattern towards gadget miniaturization and the characterization, manipulation, and nice keep watch over of constitution and serve as at diminishing size scales. a wide category of nanoscale fabrics should be sturdy even supposing they're faraway from the lowest-energy thermodynamic nation, and plenty of own novel houses inconceivable in bulk. those developments are supported by way of the expanding sophistication of characterization and fabrication instruments equivalent to the scanning tunneling microscope and the transmission electron microscope, which permit the solution and manipulation of unmarried atoms and molecules. Nanoscale Phenomena: easy technological know-how to gadget Applications provides chosen lectures from the 3rd Workshop of the Croucher complicated examine Institute on Nano technological know-how and know-how, and showcases contributions from world-renowned researchers. Chapters fall into 4 significant different types: Nanostructured Carbon and its functions, Quantum Dots and Molecular Spintronics, Nanomaterials layout and Synthesis, and Molecular Electronics.

Download e-book for iPad: The Panic Virus: A True Story of Medicine, Science, and Fear by Seth Mnookin

WHO makes a decision WHICH evidence ARE real?
In 1998 Andrew Wakefield, a British gastroenterologist with a background of self-promotion, released a paper with a surprising allegation: the measles-mumps-rubella vaccine may possibly reason autism. The media seized carry of the tale and, within the approach, helped to release the most devastating healthiness scares ever. within the future years Wakefield will be published as a profiteer in league with class-action legal professionals, and he may ultimately lose his scientific license. in the meantime one learn after one other didn't locate any hyperlink among formative years vaccines and autism.
Yet the parable that vaccines by some means reason developmental problems lives on. regardless of the inability of corroborating facts, it's been popularized through media personalities reminiscent of Oprah Winfrey and Jenny McCarthy and legitimized through reporters who declare that they're simply being reasonable to “both sides” of a subject approximately which there's little debate. in the meantime hundreds of thousands of bucks were diverted from power breakthroughs in autism examine, households have spent their discount rates on useless “miracle cures,” and declining vaccination charges have resulted in outbreaks of lethal health problems like Hib, measles, and whooping cough. so much tragic of all is the expanding variety of youngsters demise from vaccine-preventable ailments.
In The Panic Virus Seth Mnookin attracts on interviews with mom and dad, public-health advocates, scientists, and anti-vaccine activists to take on a primary query: How will we come to a decision what if truth be told? The interesting resolution is helping clarify every little thing from the endurance of conspiracy theories approximately September 11 to the allure of talk-show hosts who call for that President Obama “prove” he used to be born in the USA.
The Panic Virus is a riveting and occasionally heart-breaking scientific detective tale that explores the boundaries of rational proposal. it's the final cautionary story for our time.

Fig. , 2006b) displays the comparison of cyclability among the pristine NG spheres, the NG with CNF as direct fillers, and the NG/CNF in situ composite. It is clearly seen that a great improvement in cycling performance is achieved for the in situ composite, the capacity of which is still kept at above 300 mAh/g up to 45 cycles, about 150 mAh/g higher than that of the pristine NG. On the contrary, the capacity of the pristine NG and the NG with CNF as fillers drops continuously in the whole cycles.
