The Clustering Evolution of Distant Red Galaxies in the GOODS-MUSIC Sample

Aims. We study the clustering properties of Distant Red Galaxies (DRG) to test whether they are the progenitors of local massive galaxies. Methods. We use the GOODS-MUSIC sample, a catalog of ∼3000 Ks-selected galaxies based on VLT and HST observation of the GOODS-South field with extended multi-wavelength coverage (from 0.3 to 8μm) and accurate estimates of the photometric redshifts to select ...

Language, Music, and Brain

Introduction: Over the last centuries, scientists have been trying to figure out how the brain is learning the language. By 1980, the study of brain-language relationships was based on the study of human brain damage. But since 1980, neuroscience methods have greatly improved. There is controversy about where music, composition, or the perception of language and music are in the brain, or wheth...

Distant Healing

This article reviews 61 studies of distant healing, which is healing that is deliberately sent by one or more healers as an intent, wish, meditation, or prayer to a healee who may be in the healers' presence or may be far away. Distance, even thousands of miles, does not appear to limit the effects of healing. Significant effects of distant healing are demonstrated randomized controlled trials ...

Music therapy and sleep cycle

Sleep is a basic behavior in humans. There are some research reports on the cyclical patterns of different types of sleep and their relationship to breathing, heart rate, brain waves, and other physical function. More recently, scientific research has begun to show how music therapy interacts with relaxation and sleep cycle. This research is focusing on the following hypotheses: 1. Music could ...
