Magnetizing a material without applying an external magnetic field has been proposed in an article published in a journal by researchers at the State University of Sao Paulo (UNESP) in Brazil. Science report, Here we detail the experimental approach used to achieve this goal. This study was part of a PhD. A study pursued by Lucas Squillante under the supervision of Marianode Souza, a professor of physics at UNESP in Rio Claro. I also contributed another PhD, Isys Mello. Candidates directed by [...]

Gluten is a protein complex found in grains such as wheat, rye and barley. Characterized by the elastic texture of the dough, bread and bread rolls can be baked into various shapes, maintaining flexibility and unfriendlyness. Also, when combined with preservatives, it extends the shelf life of bread at room temperature. However, gluten intolerance has become a global epidemic and gluten-free products are becoming more and more popular. The problem is that most of what is available on the [...]

A 50% rise in the level of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere could reduce rainfall in the Amazon as much as or even more than substitution of the entire forest by pasture. The rise in CO2 would reduce the amount of water vapor emitted by the forest, leading to a 12% annual drop in the volume of rainfall, while total deforestation would reduce rainfall by 9%. These estimates are presented in a study published in Biogeosciences by scientists affiliated with the National Space [...]

Mathematical models that describe the physical behavior of magnetic materials can also be used to explain the epidemic of the new coronavirus that causes COVID-19. This was carried out in Brazil by researchers at the State University of São Paulo (UNESP) in Rio Claro and Ilya Salteira. Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and Its Applications.. This study was part of a project led by Mariano de Souza and Ph.D., professors of Rio Claro Physics at UNESP. A study by Isys Mello with [...]

Rainfall associated with the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), the convergence zone of trade winds and rising air around the Earth near the equator, affects the food and water safety of approximately one billion people worldwide. It contains about 11% of Brazil’s population and is concentrated in four provinces in the northeastern region: Rio Grande do Norte, Ceara, Piauí and Maranhão. The wide strips of these states have a semi-arid climate, with about half of the [...]

Studies conducted in the Una Biosphere Reserve in Bahia, Brazil, show that the risk of predation has a significant impact on the behavior of golden-bellied capuchas in habitats with high hunting pressure. Sapajus xanthosternos They may even avoid areas that are rich in plant biomass and invertebrates, which are their main food sources. Articles reporting the results of the study American Journal of Primatology.. “Many theories in the field of primatology assume that the [...]

Can high doses of vitamin D on admission improve the condition of moderate or severe COVID-19 patients? The answer is no, according to a Brazilian study published in. Journal of American Medical Association (JAMA).. This article reports a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial.This type of research is considered the gold standard for evaluating drugs Effectiveness.. This was carried out with the support of FAPESP by researchers at the University of São Paulo School [...]
