Out in the depths of space, far from the protection of Earth’s atmosphere, radiation lurks.
Space radiation is known to cause sickness and increase the lifetime risk of cancer in astronauts, and now scientists have published a study showing that exposure to space-like radiation can cause damage to the brains of mice and affect their behavior.
The scientists took lab mice and exposed them to 1 milliGray of radiation each day, which is the equivalent exposure to deep-space radiation.
The experiment lasted for six months.
At the end of this period, the scientists examined the mice’s brains to see what had changed.
They found that in two areas of the mice’s brains, the hippocampus and the prefrontal cortex, cellular signaling was impaired.
Gemstones bear a special significance in Vedic Astrology.
Gemstones are the special stones that are taken from natural soil.
The results given by the planets depend upon the strength of the planet and its position in the person’s life.
The type of Gemstone strongly depends upon the color and capacity of the Gem to attract the cosmic rays of the particular planet that it is associated with.
In the ancient times, the gemstones were the pride of the high order people and of the Kings and the Queens, the gems were carved to their crowns and according to their beliefs apart from protecting them from malefic planets, they would attract wealth and prosperity.
It is believed that the Gemstones have a mystical power in them, and in order to get maximum benefits from them, they were cut in proper shapes and sizes by the jewelers.
Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) is a semiconductor fabrication technique developed by IBM that uses pure crystal silicon and silicon oxide for integrated circuits (ICs) and microchips.
An SOI microchip processing speed is often 30% faster than today's complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS)-based chips and power consumption is reduced 80%, which makes them ideal for mobile devices.
Soitec (France) developed the smart cut technology in collaboration with CEA-Leti (microelectronics research lab).
The leading players are emphasizing on modernizing their plants in APAC and fab facilities with advanced technologies.
The countries such as China (Taiwan included) and Japan have the largest semiconductor manufacturing base, which is further helping the SOI market grow in this region.
The increase in production facilities, rising demand for consumer electronics products, and continuous upgradation and improved efficiency of fab facilities are the key factors driving the growth of the SOI market in APAC.The Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) market was valued at 500 Million US$ in 2017 and is projected to reach 1830 Million US$ by 2025, at a CAGR of 17.6% during the forecast period.
