• Scientists Create Antilaser for Bose-Einstein Condensate of Ultracold Atoms

  …The perfect absorption of waves without reflection occurs only when the parameters of the waves and the system are coherent, or correspondent, to each other. The devices that provide coherent perfect absorption of a wave with given parameters are called antilasers. They have been used for several years in optics, for example, to create high-precision filters or senso…

• Physicists Propose Reversible Adjustment of Nanoparticles Color

  …for inorganic particles. Their composition includes bromine anions, and during the adjustment we succeeded in changing the bromine atoms to the chlorine atoms through a reversible reaction. This makes it possible to shift the emission spectrum of particles to 100 nm in the range of 420-520 nm. Organo-inorganic nanoparticles proved to be unsuitable for a similar adjus…

• INDIN2018 Conference: IoT, Big Data and Breakthroughs in Cyber-Physical Systems Modeling

  …ion is produced; after all, errors can cost not only money but also human lives. In most cases, a simulation model of the system is made. Simulation models reproduce a prototype’s functionality and model the processes that occur within the system. There are two main ways of evaluation: one is launching test scenarios with the simulation model in order to test the spe…

• Schrödinger’s Paradox and Doctor Faustus’ Lab: the Many Faces of “Gatchina Light Nights”

  …ess than Doctor Faustus himself. Designed by the Russian Engineering Theater visionaries Vadim Gololobov, Nick Khamov, and Yury Galkin, this project featured kinetic objects, each functioning on its own idiosyncratic laws, and it was the audience’s role to establish them. In addition to that, Nick Khamov and Yury Galkin decided to up their game by creating a performa…

• How to Train for Competitions and Why do it Now

  …the theoretical aspects of computer science in the 9th grade already. So, you just need to review the textbooks for 7-9th grade. As for mathematics, you need to brush up particular sections: probability theory, combinatorics, divisibility criteria, and elementary mathematical logic. The harder part has to do with skills in the basics of algorithmization and pr…

• Going Digital: How Technologies Change Our World

  … people who don’t see technologies as something separate from their everyday lives. They’re natives in the digital world, and you’ll never see a Digital Born asking parents for instructions on how to use a gadget because this generation can solve complex technological tasks with an ease of drawing a tree. What also makes them special is that they’re optimistic with a…
