Demonstration of the Human Hair Shaft as Transmitter/Receiver of Electromagnetic Forces
نویسنده
چکیده
Background: Prior research demonstrated that via a novel technique it was possible to obtain ex vivo hair tissues magnetic profiles based on microscopic nano-sized iron particles detected by Prussian Blue Stain (PBS). The present study demonstrates that magnetic signals emitted by both the ex vivo and in vivo hair follicles could penetrate glass barriers. Methods: Two different versions of Prussian Blue Stain were used, one utilizing Potassium Ferrocyanide (Fe2) the second Potassium Ferricyanide (Fe3). Both were mixed with nano-sized iron particles (2000 nm in diameter). Ex-viv between glass slides (SDW) containing either PBS Fe2 or PBS Fe3 solutions with added iron particles. The SDW was covered by a second SDW consisting of two coverslips containing the same two solutions. In addition, the coupled SDWs were placed directly on forearm and stably maintained for 4 hours. All specimens were viewed and digitally recorded via a video microscope interfaced with an Apple computer system. Results: After the solutions in the SDWs had evaporated, the hair shafts of the ex-vivo and in vivo hairs showed replicate images through the glass barriers constructed by iron particle aggregates and associated PBS crystals detected inside the SDW. Conclusions: The human hair shaft has intrinsic electromagnetic properties producing replicate Images when transmitted through a very thin (0.13 mm in thickness) glass barrier. Ancillary experiments showed that static electricity could alter these effects.

Hair Shaft Abnormality in Children: a Narrative Review
Background Hair is an ectodermal structure, and its formation is regulated by master genes important in embryology. Hair shaft consists of three major regions: the medulla, cortex and cuticle. Hair shaft abnormality will divide structural hair abnormalities into two broad categories - those associated with increased hair fragility and those not associated with increased hair fragility. We condu...
متن کاملEfficiency of Target Location Scenarios in the Multi-Transmitter Multi-Receiver Passive Radar
Multi-transmitter multi-receiver passive radar, which locates target in the surveillance area by the reflected signals of the available opportunistic transmitter from the target, is of interest in many applications. In this paper, we investigate different signal processing scenarios in multi-transmitter multi-receiver passive radar. These scenarios include decentralized processing of reference ...
متن کاملOn The Secrecy of the Cognitive Interference Channel with Channel State
In this paper the secrecy problem in the cognitive state-dependent interference channel is considered. In this scenario we have a primary and a cognitive transmitter-receiver pairs. The cognitive transmitter has the message of the primary sender as side information. In addition, the state of the channel is known at the cognitive encoder. Hence, the cognitive encoder uses this side information t...
متن کاملA physical model for low-frequency electromagnetic induction in the near field based on direct interaction between transmitter and receiver electrons
A physical model of electromagnetic induction is developed which relates directly the forces between electrons in the transmitter and receiver windings of concentric coaxial finite coils in the near-field region. By applying the principle of superposition, the contributions from accelerating electrons in successive current loops are summed, allowing the peak-induced voltage in the receiver to b...
