Mysteries of the universe hides under atoms' nucleus.

 

"When a star dies, the violent ending can lead to the birth of a neutron star. Neutron stars are real heavyweights in the universe – a teaspoon of the several-kilometer celestial body would weigh a billion tons. There is an unimaginable size difference between the atomic nucleus of the isotope lead-208 and a neutron star, but it is largely the same physics that describes their properties."

"Now researchers at Chalmers have developed a new computational model to study the atomic nucleus of lead. The 126 neutrons (red) in the nucleus form an outer envelope, which can be described as a skin. How thick the skin is, is linked to the strong force. By predicting the thickness of the neutron skin, knowledge can increase about how the strong force works – both in atomic nuclei and in neutron stars.

The mystery of the universe is how the material or heavy elements form. All material, as we know it, formed in an event called the Big Bang that released all elementary particles into space. And then those elementary particles formed hadrons and atoms. 

The first atoms were hydrogen and then formed the first stars. Inside stars hydrogen turns to helium. And later helium fusion starts to form heavier elements. But when we are talking about the heaviest elements. There is a mystery with those heavy elements. Like gold, and finally uranium we must realize that only heaviest, and hottest stars can form those elements. 

But when are those elements forming? Are they forming in fusion reactions? Or is the supernova eruption the thing that forms those elements? There is of course possible that things like neutron star collisions can form elements like gold and uranium. 

The problem with that model is that neutron stars are homogeneous neutron balls. There are no protons at all. But if neutron star collisions are making the heaviest elements there are two ways how that thing can happen. 

The first model is that radiation or energy impact between colliding neutron stars turns another d (down)-quark into a u (up)-quark. That thing turns a neutron into a proton. Another version is that the radiation that the colliding neutron stars send causes fusion around those neutron stars. 

If researchers can prove that thing it will make it possible to create models of extremely high-energy reactions. When a supernova explodes it forms a neutron star or black hole. If the star's mass is so low that it cannot form gravitation that pulls light inside it, the remnant of the supernova is a neutron star. 

When a neutron star is forming massive gravitation turns all protons into neutrons. And the thing that keeps a neutron star in its form is the interaction between the neutron's poles. 

So we can say that the weak interaction is dominating in the neutron stars. The same force keeps the atom's nucleus in its form. But if there is a counter-reaction where neutrons turn to protons that thing would be fundamental.

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
