http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_hot Absolute hot is a concept of temperature that postulates the existence of a highest attainable temperature of matter. The idea has been popularized by the television series Nova . [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In this presentation, absolute hot is assumed to be the high end of a temperature scale starting at absolute zero , which is the temperature at which entropy is minimized and classical thermal energy is zero. Current cosmological models posit that the highest possible temperature is the Planck temperature , which has the value 1.416 7 85(71) × 10 32 kelvin . [ 3 ] The Planck temperature is assumed to be the highest temperature in conventional physics because conventional physics breaks down at that temperature. Above ~10 32 K , particle energies become so large that there is no existing scientific theory for the behavior of matter at these energies.

A banana equivalent dose (actually biologically effective dose , abbreviated BED ) is a whimsical unit of radiation exposure, informally defined as the additional dose a person will absorb from eating one banana (for example). The concept is based on the fact that bananas, like most organic material, naturally contain a certain amount of radioactive isotopes —even in the absence of any artificial pollution or contamination. The banana equivalent dose was meant to express the severity of exposure to radiation, such as resulting from nuclear power , nuclear weapons or medical procedures, in terms that would make sense to most people.

Nuclear Structure | Radioactivity | Alpha Decay | Beta Decay | Gamma Decay | Half-Life | Reactions | Fusion | Fission | Cosmic Rays | Antimatter . An atom consists of an extremely small, positively charged nucleus surrounded by a cloud of negatively charged electrons . Although typically the nucleus is less than one ten-thousandth the size of the atom, the nucleus contains more than 99.9% of the mass of the atom! http://www.lbl.gov/abc/Basic.html

Magenta Ain't A Colour

A beam of white light is made up of all the colours in the spectrum. The range extends from red through to violet, with orange, yellow, green and blue in between. But there is one colour that is notable by its absence. You should have seen a green afterimage, but why is this significant? The afterimage always shows the colour that is complementary to the colour of the image. Complementary colours are those that are exact opposites in the way the eye perceives them.
