... , also led to the first mass spectrometer while he was measuring the effects of electric and magnetic fields on ions generated by ratios. Thomson received the 1906 Nobel Prize in Physics in recognition of the great merits of his theoretical and experimental investigations on the conduction of electricity by gasses. Thomson noticed that the ions move through parabolic trajectories proportional to ... both the quadrupole and quadrupole ion trap are the most widely used mass analyzers in the world and for his innovative work Paul was awarded the 1989 Nobel Prize in Physics. This era of rapi...

... its minuscule size and weight, "could significantly reduce the costs and energy footprint of portable water filters and desalinators," says Marko Spasenović, Assistant Professor at the Institute of Physics in Belgrade. MIT's initial discovery was featured in the Smithsonian next to the Higgs Boson, the discovery of Earth-like planets, and NASA's Curiosity mission to Mars.  In addition to ... ...

Even if society desired a hundred Einstein's, there is no guarantee that the clones would find the same path to physics or even become more than ordinary citizens (Herbert et al. 1997). Ethicists say that diversity is the main factor in our population that leads to the rise of great men ... ...

... over the world including European countries and Asian countries. Robert Sinsheimer, the American microbiologist, was the first one who suggested HGP and biology could undergo those giant research projects like physics and astronomy. He suggested setting up a professional department for HGP. Though his suggestion didnt pass the parliament, it raised a lot of awareness from both opponents and proponents. The opponents worried ... ...

... to abuse power comes ethical questions on what the humans race should do with this power. The Austrian Monk Gregor Mendel discovered the basics of genetics. He was trained in physics, then was recruited to a monastery to do some research in breeding plants and animals. Mendel preformed his experiments with the pea plant, and found that a basic ratio of things, such ... ...

... responsible organisms have been evolving to escape our controls. Moreover, scientists can perform experiments to study evolution in real time, just as experiments are used to observe dynamic processes in physics, chemistry, and other branches of biology. To study evolution in action, scientists use organisms like bacteria and fruit flies that reproduce quickly, so they can see changes that require many ... ...
