A recent report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) concludes that if greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions continue at the current rate, the atmosphere will warm by as much as 1.5°C (or 2.7°F) by 2040.1 “Climate-related risks to health, livelihoods, food security, water supply, human security, and economic growth are projected to increase with global warming of 1.5°C and increase further with 2°C.”2 The power sector was responsible for 29 percent of the climate-warming GHGs emitted in the United States in 2017,3 making it imperative that the U.S.

  • Del Progetto Einstein@Home, Scoprono Una Nuova Pulsar Nei Dati Del Radio Telescopio Di Arecibo
    Gente comune, ‘’scienziati’’ del progetto Einstein@Home, scoprono una nuova pulsar nei dati del radio telescopio di Arecibo. I computer inattivi sono un po’ come il parco giochi degli astronomi: tre persone comuni, un tedesco ed una coppia in America, hanno scoperto una pulsar nascosta nei dati raccolti dall’osservatorio di Arecibo. Questa e’ la prima scoperta dello spazio profondo da parte di Einstein@Home, un progetto che utilizza il tempo di calcolo donato da 250 000 volontari in 192 differenti paesi. I volontari mettono a disposizione i propri computer quando non li stanno usando (Science Express, Aug. 12, 2010.). I volontari i cui computer hanno fatto la scoperta sono Chris ed Helen Colvin, di Ames, nell’Iowa, USA, e Daniel Gebhardt dell’universita’ di Mainz , dipartimento di informatica musicale, Germania. I loro computer, assieme agli altri 500 000 sparsi in tutto il mondo, analizzano dati per Einstein@Home (in media ogni volontario contribuisce con due computer). La nuova pulsar, chiamata PSR J2007+2722, e’ una stella di neutroni che ruota su se’ stessa 41 volte al secondo. La pulsar si trova nella Via Lattea nella costellazione Vulpecula a circa 17 000 anni luce dalla Terra. A differenza delle altre pulsar che ruotano velocemente e stabilmente come lei, J2007+2722 se ne sta tutta sola nello spazio senza nessun’altra stella compagna ad orbitarle attorno. Gli astronomi ritengono che J2007+2722 sia particolarmente interessante perche’ e’ probabilmente una pulsar riciclata che ha perso durante la propria evoluzione la stella compagna. Questa ipotesi, seppure la piu’ interessante, rimane tuttavia una ipotesi e altri scenari sono possibili, per esempio che J2007+2722 sia una pulsar giovane nata con un campo magnetico piu’ basso del normale.

But can libraries still function as central “research locations” when the digital age has seen most sources made available online? Researchers worldwide would answer this question with a clear “yes.” The printed book is still the preferred publication medium in many areas of knowledge, while libraries can be seen as well-equipped labs without which no research would be possible. It therefore comes as no surprise that guest scientists often have to plan their stays at the Max Planck Institutes according to the capacities available for library use. However, the quality of a library is not judged solely by its collections, as valuable as these may be. It is the accessibility of the knowledge that matters.

    El futuro de la Unión Europea. Retos y desafíos 08.Jul - 10.Jul Cod. D06-19 Edition 2019 Activity type Course Date 08.Jul - 10.Jul Location Miramar Palace Languages Spanish Academic Validity 30 hours MANAGEMENT Juan Ignacio Ugartemendia Eceizabarrena, UPV/EHU Daniel Sarmiento Ramírez-Escudero, Universidad Complutense de Madrid Organising Committee 1 Description El Curso tiene por objeto profundizar en el estudio del futuro de la Unión Europea, ahora que ha transcurrido el primer cuarto de siglo desde la entrada en vigor, allá por noviembre de 1993, del Tratado que la fundaba, así como la primera década de aplicación de su Carta de Derechos Fundamentales. Para ello se tomará en consideración la perspectiva de algunos de los principales retos y desafíos que han surgido en el seno de la misma y a los que debe hacer frente. Participará profesorado de diversas universidades e institutos nacionales y extranjeros, así como miembros de varias instituciones europeas (Tribunal de Justicia, Consejo de la Unión, o Banco Central Europeo). Uno de los bloques temáticos a tratar es el referido a los desafíos que pueden presentarse en el ámbito institucional de la Unión Europea, recién celebradas las elecciones al Parlamento Europeo de mayo de 2019, ante la elección de una nueva Comisión Europea, y debiendo tener en cuenta los eventuales cambios que vendrán derivados del Brexit. Otro de los temas que se abordará en profundidad es el concerniente a algunos de los principales desafíos en materia de Unión Económica y Monetaria. La lucha por el Estado de Derecho en la Unión Europea será también un campo a explorar, examinando los problemas generados, por ejemplo, en relación a los ataques que ha sufrido la independencia judicial en algunos países de la Unión, o estudiando el papel del Estado de Derecho en los Tratados de la Unión.

  • CHAPTER 8 GERMAN NUCLEAR POLICY Ernst Urich Von
    CHAPTER 8 GERMAN NUCLEAR POLICY Ernst Urich von Weizsäcker Nuclear fission was discovered here in Berlin by Otto Hahn and Fritz Strassmann in 1938, but the first applications were made in the United States. Enrico Fermi’s first nuclear reactor began producing small amounts of energy in Chicago as early as 1942, and the first atomic bomb exploded in the Alamogordo desert in 1945. The Nazi period was the ultimate disaster for Germany (and others). The earlier scientific excellence—bringing more Nobel Prizes to Germany than to any other country during the first third of the 20th century—was badly eroded by Nazi tyranny and criminal anti- Semitism. What the Nazis did not do was done by the War. German industry virtually had ceased to exist in 1945, and almost all cities were destroyed. The mindset after the war was characterized by guilt, peaceful reconstruction, pacifism (even under the threat of Soviet expansion), and an almost antinational sentiment of “Europeanism.” The near absence of patriotism after 1945 was, of course, a consequence of its horrendous abuse by the Nazis but remains difficult for Americans to understand. Concerning energy policy, two factors were dominant in post-war Europe: coal was the chief source of energy, and demand was rising steeply. The first significant move towards West European integration was the European Community of Coal and Steel (ECCS), founded in 1951. Its six countries, Germany, France, Italy, The Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg, were the nucleus of what 6 years later became the European Economic Community. The ECCS also became a symbol of industrial democracy, of co-determination, because for the heavy industries’ supervisory boards a one-to-one parity between capital and labor became a mandatory rule, motivated perhaps by the fact that steel at the time was also the core of the arms industry that needed international control.
