The quantum microscope revolutionizes science.



There are many types of quantum microscopes. And sometimes researchers mentioned that laser and electron microscopes are also quantum microscopes. Scanning tunneling microscopes are also one version of quantum microscopes. 

In those systems, the ion or some subatomic particle like electron or proton is hovering between stylus and layer. The system is sensing the changes in the position of the particle. 

And these systems are the sharpest microscopes in the world. Those microscopes are seeing single atoms. The resolution of the scanning tunneling microscope depends on the size of the particle that is used for scanning. The UV-lasers the surfaces from long distances. 

But the problem is that the wavelength of those radiation types is quite long for the cases where the observable object is smaller than the atom. Most high-resolution images can take by using gamma-ray lasers. The problem is that the gamma-ray is not reflecting from surfaces. 

The resolution of that kind of laser system depends on the wavelength that the system uses. The scanning laser microscope could use the row of single photons. Which makes it possible to scan extremely small objects. 

So if the scanning tunneling microscope uses quarks it could see the surfaces of the protons. But the most promising thing is to use the superpositioned and entangled photons for scanning the surfaces. That kind of system could scan even the quarks inside the atoms. In that system, the photon is captured in the chamber. And then that photon will put superposition what makes it possible to use that photon pair for scanning the subatomic structures. 

If the quantum microscope uses superpositioned and entangled particles for scanning the surfaces there is no limit for distance where that system can operate. The system, that uses the superpositioned and entangled particles can scan the surfaces even on another planet if there is enough energy for creating that thing. The superpositioned particle pair acts like the phonograph needle. And when another part of the particle pair is moving. Also, another pair is moving the same way. 

Quantum technology will change the world. And the ability to make the long-range high-resolution scanning is one of the most interesting things in material research. And we cannot still know all solutions that this kind of technology might have. 

In some visions, the quantum microscope is targeted at the molecule. And then the skyrmion will cut the bond of atoms at a certain point. If we are thinking about the chemical bond as the wire. The skyrmion could cut one of the wires as an example of a triple bond. Then the quantum tweezer will move the wanted atom or molecule to that point. That thing makes it possible to make a new type of chemical structure that can use in nanotechnology.

Black holes cause a virtual redshift because gravitation stretches the wavelength near them.

At the beginning of this text is a film about the redshift of black holes. Gravitation stretches light, and that means gravitation fields are pulling waves longer. That thing is called the gravitational redshift. As you can see from the film, the black hole stretches radiation and distorts the redshift. Gravitational redshift, or virtual redshift, means that a black hole might seem to be at a longer distance than it is. The film shows the redshift of the star that orbits a supermassive black hole. But all other black holes interact the same way.  The event horizon is always constant. At that point, the black hole's escaping velocity is the same as the speed of light. So every black hole interacts basically in the same way. And it's possible to apply that model to all black holes irrespective of their size.  Is gravitation the thing that forms dark energy? That thing seems somehow strange. But when photons and other particles are traveling through the ball that forms the visible

The shape of the brain means more than neuro connectivity.

Well, we might say that the brain is in its entirety. Another thing is that all things in the brain have some kind of purpose. The shape of the brain and, especially, the folding of the brain shell are extremely important things. Those folds are expanding the brain's surface areas. And the brain shell has a primary role in the thinking process. The surface area of the brain determines how large the cerebral cortex is. And in a large cerebral cortex, there are a large number of neurons. But as I just wrote, the brain is in its entirety. "Researchers have discovered that the shape of a person’s brain significantly impacts thought, feeling, and behavior, overturning the prevailing emphasis on complex neuronal connectivity. Utilizing MRI scans and the principle of eigenmodes, they found that brain function is closely linked to its geometric properties, much like how the shape of a musical instrument determines its sound, offering new avenues for exploring brain function and diseas

New nanomaterial is 4 times harder than steel. And, at the same time 5 times lighter than steel.

 New nanomaterial is 4 times harder than steel. And, at the same time 5 times lighter than steel.  The new material is the hollow glass fiber with DNA molecules inside that structure. Or as you see from the image. The glass fibers are on both sides of the DNA.  DNA molecule is the thing, that involves the genetic code of the cells. Genetically engineered cells can make DNA, and those molecules can used as the nanomaterial's structures. DNA manipulation makes it possible to create new types of extremely strong materials. And those materials are stronger than steel and lighter than it. DNA molecules can act as nano-size springs.  And in some visions, genetically engineered cyborg cells like cyborg macrophages can make extremely long DNA molecules. And then they can just use those molecules as spears that can pierce wanted cells. Or those cyborg cells can also dumb targeted cells full of the DNA that terminates them immediately.  The DNA and nanotube combinations can also act as DNA-b
