Sleep walkers have problems with the brain stem mechanism concerned with movement. When sleep walking is caused by an imbalance of secretions, or by a poor nervous state (i.e., depression, or anxiety) the problem may be temporary. When it is due to injury of the nerve centers, the problem is permanent. Whatever the causes, we must never be impatient or …

In Physics and Mathematics, singularity is defined as a point at which a complex function is undefined because it is neither differentiable nor single-valued while the function is defined in every neighbourhood of the point. Specifically, a quantity which approaches infinity as another parameter goes to zero. Like 1/x when x approaches zero. In astronomy, singularity is a hypothetical region …

Seaflux is a study of the changes in oceans and its waves affected by momentum, heat and quantum of water. It involves creation of comparable data sets and constant observation about the effect of heat and momentum on the ocean front to increase our forecasting abilities about nature and sea behaviour.

This is an infections disease most prevalent among children but which is relatively uncommon now a days. There is a rash on the face and body, accompanied by fever. The rash flakes off after a few days. The principal treatment is penicillin. As with many infectious diseases, once a patient has recovered from scarlet fever he or she is normally …

Electromagnetic waves which exist only in the vacuum of empty space constitute an ocean of infinite energy called scalar energy. These new waves of energy are called “longitudinal” EM (electromagnetism) to distinguish them from “transverse” EM. Scalar energy was first announced by Thomas E Bearden. However, his ideas have received no noteworthy support in the scientific community. A scalar pendant …

Sanskrit is the name given to ancient classical language of the Hindu inhabitants of India. It was introduced into India probably about 1500 B.C. and was for a time the spoken language as well as the literary language. The sacred Hindu books – the Vedas – were written in Old Sanskrit, but the name really apply only to the form …

Safety glass is that has been strengthened. there are two kinds of this protective glass laminated and toughened and both were discovered by accident. In the early 1900s Edouard Benedictus, a French chemist, knocked a glass flask on to the floor. Although the glass starred and cracked, it did not break. After examining the flask he realized that a coating …

Riemann Hypothesis is an important result in Mathematics whose truth or otherwise is not yet known. It asserts that an important function (called Riemann Zeta function) takes the value zero only along a certain line in the right half of the complex plane. This was conjectured by the German mathematician Gerhard Riemann in 1859 and, in spite of efforts by …

Rhinology is the study of the nose, including the sinuses, and concerns itself with medical and surgical diseases of the nasal passages and paranasal sinuses. It is becoming more important after the introduction of nasal endoscopes. A rhinologist is a specialist otolaryngologist (an ENT specialist). Rhinology was practised as early as 4000 BC – there is an inscription on the …

It is a blood group. People whose blood contains this group are referred to as being Rhesus positive. Those who lack it are called Rhesus negative.
