A particle accelerator helped scientists create stunning 3D ants

For more than ten years, Evan Economo’s lab has relied on micro CT scanners to image insect specimens. These X ray scans allow scientists to examine the physical structure and form of insects, an area of research known as morphology. Although the technique provides extremely detailed 3D data, it is expensive and slow.

“One limitation is that you can get this rich 3D dataset, but it could take 10…

呗 (bei) modal particle

modal particle 呗 (bei), which suggests that something should be obvious or easy to understand without being negative or insulting. We see this in our dialogue, when one of our speakers says 就是互相看着不顺眼呗 jiùshì hùxiāng kànzhe bù shùnyǎn bei (“it’s obvious that they just can’t get along”). The 呗 lightens the tone of this statement. 呗 is functionally and phonetically similar to 吧 (ba). The major difference is in this slight change in tone, which implies that there should be little disagreement on this point between most reasonable people.

来着, láizhe (“Just Now”)

来着?nǐ shuō shénme láizhe?
“What did you say just now?”

来着, láizhe (“Just now”) is an informal particle. It indicates that some event has happened a short time ago and the action has already been finished. 来着 can be used when the speaker needs to be reminded of certain information that was recently forgotten. Usually we do not need to use 了 in the sentence again because 了 and 来着 have the same function.

For Example:

  1. 他昨天工作来着。= 他昨天工作了。
    tā zuótiān gōngzuò láizhe. = tā zuótiān gōng zuò le
    .

Sentences containing 来着 and 了 are not exactly the same, but the meanings are similar. If we put 来着 in a question, we are asking something we just forgot. For example, you run into a familiar face, but their name is on the tip of your tongue. In this case, you can ask the question, 他叫什么来着?tā jiào shénme láizhe? (“I forgot his name just now.”) So in this case, the use of 来着 means that you previously knew the person’s name but recently forgot it.

The formation of 来着 is simple. We place it directly at the end of the sentence.

My friend Pete shuts doors with his mind.

He didn’t learn anything.
On the contrary – it took a serious amount of UNLEARNIN
G.

He sometimes tried to explain:
“Jesus walked on water and passed through walls, right?”

“Probably not,” I confirmed.

“So,” he said. “How’d he do it?”

Huh. That’s what I’ve been waiting for Pete to explain.

“Huh,” I said, “That’s what I’ve been waiting for you to explain.”

Pete said “Expansion. Contraction. Like when we breathe in, we fill up, and we expand; when we exhale, we shrink.”

Pete demonstrated breathing for us.

“See? Jesus was probably an adept who could spread his molecular wings wide and then step on water without slipping in, or fold them up real skinny-like and filter through solids, like walls.

“He could, with practice, be the broad side of a barn or a screen door. You know. Getting the knack for being a particle or a wave.”

‘Quantum squeezing’ a nanoscale particle for the first time - New Study/Science Updates

Researchers Mitsuyoshi Kamba, Naoki Hara, and Kiyotaka Aikawa of the University of Tokyo have successfully demonstrated quantum squeezing of the motion of a nanoscale particle, a motion whose uncertainty is smaller than that of quantum mechanical fluctuations.

Summary
Researchers at the University of Tokyo achieved quantum squeezing of a nanoscale particle’s motion, meaning they reduced the…
