Gold, Skin, and Body: Chinese Buddha Statues Are Constantly Being Shaped and Stripped

رابطه وجود و ماهیت در رساله ‏‎"on being and essence"‎‏

هدف عمده ای که من در رساله خود تعقیب می کنم بررسی رابطه وجود و ماهیت از نظر توماس آکوئینی در رساله معروف خود تحت همین نام، است، که نام لاتین آن ‏‎de ente et essentia‎‏ می باشد و ترجمه انگلیسی آن تحت عنوان ‏‎"on being and essence"‎‏ است که ترجمه معمول آن به فارسی ((وجود و ماهیت)) می باشد. البته بهترین ترجمه فارسی واژه ‏‎ente‎‏، ((موجودیت)) است ولی ما مطابق رسم آنرا رساله ((درباره وجود و ماهیت)) ...

Reflection: Fire and Buddha Image

Athletic equipment microbiota are shaped by interactions with human skin

BACKGROUND Americans spend the vast majority of their lives in built environments. Even traditionally outdoor pursuits, such as exercising, are often now performed indoors. Bacteria that colonize these indoor ecosystems are primarily derived from the human microbiome. The modes of human interaction with indoor surfaces and the physical conditions associated with each surface type determine the ...

Individual Template-Stripped Conductive Gold Pyramids for Tip-Enhanced Dielectrophoresis

Gradient fields of optical, magnetic, or electrical origin are widely used for the manipulation of micro- and nanoscale objects. Among various device geometries to generate gradient forces, sharp metallic tips are one of the most effective. Surface roughness and asperities present on traditionally produced tips reduce trapping efficiencies and limit plasmonic applications. Template-stripped, no...

Solid-state bonding technique for template-stripped ultraflat gold substrates.

A simple procedure using gold diffusion bonding for the preparation of template-stripped gold (TSG) surfaces is described. TSG surfaces are useful for surface studies because a very consistent flat gold surface with few defects can be easily prepared. We have developed a method of producing TSG surfaces that relies only on gold diffusion bonding rather than epoxies. The resulting substrates are...
