[CA] JEU- cahiers de théâtre The 5th Conference - Duval Union Academy The 5th Conference In 1912 the Belgian industrialist Ernest Solvay founded “The Solvay Conference”. Located in Brussels, the conferences were devoted to outstanding preeminent open problems in both physics and chemistry. It was considered a turning point in the world of physics. THE 5TH CONFERENCE by Duval Union Academy is a new Belgian based large-scale industry event that creates a much-needed dialogue focused on evolutive and disruptive innovation across the ecosystem. It provides a forum to discuss the latest advancements in a specific industry that have the potential to improve outcomes, decrease costs, and reimagine this industry.

"The Psychological Resilience of Spousal Caregivers of Multiple Scleros" by Marisa Diane Diaz Abstract The purpose of this quantitative study was to examine an under-researched topic: the relationship between psychological resilience and personal growth with spousal caregivers of patients diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Chronic illnesses contribute to potentially stressful changes (i.e., lifestyle, quality of life, financial wellbeing, and interpersonal relationships) for the caregiver. The theoretical foundation for this study was Walsh's family resilience theory, which contends that resilience is vital for coping with stressful life experiences and leading a more successful life.

[FR] T&M – Théâtre & Musique / La Gaîté Lyrique (Paris) Gömböc Convex shape with one stable and one unstable position The gömböc (Hungarian: [ˈɡømbøt͡s] GUHM-buhts) is the first known physical example of a class of convex three-dimensional homogeneous bodies, called mono-monostatic, which, when resting on a flat surface have just one stable and one unstable point of equilibrium. The existence of this class was conjectured by the Russian mathematician Vladimir Arnold in 1995 and proven in 2006 by the Hungarian scientists Gábor Domokos and Péter Várkonyi by constructing at first a mathematical example and subsequently a physical example. The gömböc is the first mono-monostatic shape which has been constructed physically. Name[edit] If analyzed quantitatively in terms of flatness and thickness, the discovered mono-monostatic bodies are the most sphere-like, apart from the sphere itself. History[edit] The above examples of mono-monostatic objects are inhomogeneous. Mathematical solution[edit] Relation to animals[edit] Art[edit] Media[edit] See also[edit]

The birth of electromagnetism (1820) | Skulls in the Stars It is oddly fitting that the birth of electromagnetism, and an entirely new direction in physics, started with the tiniest twitch of a compass needle. In the year 1820, Danish physicist Hans Christian Oersted (1777-1851) observed the twitch of said compass needle in the presence of an electric current, providing the first definite evidence of a link between electricity and magnetism that would set the tone for much of modern physics. The story of Oersted’s experiment is the stuff of physics legend, but like most legends it is often misremembered and exaggerated. Nevertheless, it is a fascinating piece of work and a piece of scientific history worth recounting. The early 1800s were an exciting time to be studying electricity. Evidence was piling up that many seemingly disparate phenomena in nature were connected. A number of isolated observations also suggested a connection between electricity and magnetism. This brings us to the famous experiment of 1820! In this picture, 2. 3. 4. 5.
