DEVELOPMENT OF CAROTENOID PIGMENTS
... Xanthophyll and carotene are usually associated in plants and are present before the formation of chlorophyll. Their formulae suggest genetic relationship. Xanthophyll can be reduced to carotene and the transformation is reversible. Together they may represent a respiratory mechanism similar to the ...

Experiments on Elastic Cloaking in Thin Plates
... Finally, these elastic moduli are translated to local PVC filling fractions via the dependence E0 ðfÞ shown in Fig. 1. The region around the cloak is also a metamaterial with a PVC filling fraction of 40%. This means that the entire plate (and not only the cloak) needs to be structured. A scheme and ...

Thomas Young (scientist)
.jpg?width=300)
Thomas Young (13 June 1773 – 10 May 1829) was an English polymath and physician. Young made notable scientific contributions to the fields of vision, light, solid mechanics, energy, physiology, language, musical harmony, and Egyptology. He ""made a number of original and insightful innovations""in the decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphs (specifically the Rosetta Stone) before Jean-François Champollion eventually expanded on his work. He was mentioned by, among others, William Herschel, Hermann von Helmholtz, James Clerk Maxwell, and Albert Einstein. Young has been described as ""The Last Man Who Knew Everything"".
