The theory of Brownian motion goes back mainly to Albert Einstein and involves, in the case of the diffusion of particles, the famous bell curve of Gauss. A group of American researchers have recently discovered that Einstein’s theory did not work in some cases.
At the beginning of the twentieth century, the assumption that the material was composed of atoms was not accepted by the entire scientific community. Some felt uncomfortable with these “metaphysics” so small we could not directly observe or verify their existence with a microscope and wanted to …

It is the ultraviolet radiation which is bad for the skin, which means that sunbathing in the open air is just as dangerous. However, the …
United States – Scientific studies have revealed that the food coloring used for M & M’s blue could be used in the treatment of injuries of the spine.
The Brilliant Blue G, which is used to create the M & M’s blue, could block the action of a chemical compound that aggravates the wounds of the spine, causing inflammation and destruction of cells. According to researchers at the University of Rochester, treatment with Brilliant Blue G might reduce the size of lesions in the spine, and even speed up the process …
Japan – A study demonstrated the therapeutic virtues of lemon. Indeed, if one knows that the smell is soothing, scientists have proved its anti-stress virtues.

In studying the effects of lemon on rats that the team of Prof. Akio Nakamura outlined …
France – If France is relying heavily on biomass to meet its targets for renewable energy development by 2020, a study by the institute Xerfi concludes that the targets for 2012 relating to the recovery of organic waste will not be achieved.
France has set itself the goal of reaching a production of energy from renewables by 23% by 2020 and to this end, it relies heavily on biomass, one of the first green energy in the country which is to develop the organic waste and wood. Half of this growth …
