  1. Good call @@, will have to review this clip, thanks
  2. I want to create a 1 meter sphere BEC(Bose Einstein Condensate) for slow light if you guys know what BEC is, below is a video.
  3. I do not have anything, you are free to close it
  4. Ya, well, jokes aside. The fumes generated from burning charcoal or tobacco would contain acetaldehyde which could have antiviral effect(speculation). Thing is I am not sure what corona virus do to the lungs and if inhaling low concentration of acetaldehyde would have a therapeutic effect in killing the virus in the lungs. That is a long shot. I do not worry too much because I think I am immune to the virus
  5. All is true but perhaps breathing in controlled non-tobacco fumes could create therapeutic effect to the lungs? All is true but perhaps the first step in avoiding fire hazard is to avoid breathing in the fumes. Sorry that I mention this sort of jokingly before
  6. Just curious about virus reaction to fumes, like the smoking effect, maybe it is more potent for bacteria?
  7. Many thanks for the hint. I chose magnetron in the first place because of its wide range of em wave emission. It seems the stimulated emission of the electrons from thermionic emission should be in phase and also covers a wide range. It is just, I do not know the working mechanism for laser for stimulated emission to get the electrons to an excited state. Correct me if I am wrong
  8. My bad, I was a bit skeptical to say transform the spatial spectrum to an RGB pixel color, my mind sort of think that is the possibility but it was never revealed in the Wikipedia link @@, so ya, thanks for the clarification. And after reviewing Raman Spectroscopy I will post the video here. I guess I was a bit unclear about the concept
  9. Well, Raman spectroscopy works based on reflection, but even then the wavelength of the source could impact the resolution, I'd say something in the infrared/UV range? Or if you guys know of a method I have not considered before @@
  10. Like I said, hyperspectral imaging with spatial scanning. I am not sure what photogrammetry is but probably something similar :D? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperspectral_imaging#Spatial_scanning Spatial scanning or Fourier Transform like MRI, still theorizing on that part. Cuz I modded the design = =, I attempt to use the electrons in the magnetron as a laser source, I am just not sure if they are excited for stimulated emission coming from thermionic emission(please refer to how magnetron works video)
  11. The wavelength reflected from Raman Spectroscopy is because of the atomic structure of the atoms examined. Below is an interesting video showing how they find diamond through Raman spectroscopy in identifying the wavelength(toward the end of the video). Well you see. If I want to examine the bone I use x-ray. Why? Because x-ray pass through the skin but gets reflected off the bones(x-ray has high frequency and short wavelength). Similarly if I want to examine the brain I would be interested in monitoring maybe the sodium concentration of the electrical synapses or map out the individual neurons of the nervous system. Most conventional method you can find on Google about brain imaging is probably along the line of (drilling a hole on the skull and monitor the brain with a microscope) if you want nanoscale resolution. So I went with Raman spectroscopy. Using laser somewhere in the infrared range(or ultraviolet https://journals.aps.org/pr/abstract/10.1103/PhysRev.15.110) would perhaps pass through the skin and bounce off the neurons/sodium/potassium of the brain, allowing for their imaging. The hyperspectral imaging would generate a map based on the collected wavelength exhibited. Believe me they lit up my brain once by exciting the sodium in the brain, turning it into a sodium vapor lamp. But this gives off a wavelength in the visible light range somewhere around 594nm so ya, you cannot see it from the outside. They seem to be able to retrieve the image through the eyes though and that is how I got a glimpse of it.
  12. Ya, coherence, still working out on that part. The magnetron is supposed to create a railgun like effect I think You excite the electrons and you shoot a photon through the column with mirrors on both side, charging it up. I am not sure if the electron is in an excited state from the thermionic emission though https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stimulated_emission
  13. Hmm, my idea of spectroscopy imaging has to do with hyperspectral imaging, sort of like having a radar system mapping out a landscape. Of course depending on the type of radiation(say infrared) and the reflective index of the object(say neurons) you could generate slices of spectral image with depth. Cool, about the coherent radiation coming from tiny individual generators, is there a device for this type of thing? (I kept thinking about the movie eraser with that theoretical pulse weapon lol)
  14. Good call, all maser are powered by magnetron right? At least the sort of wide range maser device(multiple lasers), not a single maser build(single laser).
  15. I was looking into microwave gun and I found magnetron as a source of directed microwave. Now, is it possible to combine this with laser spectroscopy having magnetron being the power source(we all know how a radar works, it is just somewhere on the nanometer scale to visualize the brain) to visualize the brain? I have not worked out the power and wavelength required
  16. Hmm, I contacted Solvay Pharmaceutical, the company that make Prometrium and they referred me to this site (https://www.carbogen-amcis.com/). I will post my finding if they respond to me through letter
  17. Good find, but is the method remains unchanged from the 1970s to present?
  18. Good call, I did read the total synthesis method done in 1971, it just seems a bit lengthy and complex. Is the total synthesis done in 1971 how they do it in the pharmaceutical companies to derive progesterone? Thanks for your time @StringJunky
  19. So I came across progesterone in a Wikipedia article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progesterone) and is interested in how it is actually synthesized in the capsule like Prometrium. The article says progesterone can be derived from diosgenin which can be converted from saponin produced in yam, but I do not think the pharmaceutical companies convert yam into progesterone for their commercial product right?
  20. So every cell is different, the right and left body seems symmetric, but the organs are not. With that said, if I want to modify a specific cell/neuron located on the right hemisphere of my brain to change the gene expression, is there a way for me to target that cell specifically with the unique cell receptor? So the drug would work like an RFID, it would go "o, you are that cell on the right brain hemisphere from the unique cell specific receptor, so I would assume to make gene expression changes using this hormone from another receptor pathway." Do such a unique cell specific receptor/identification exist?
  21. P.S. My bad for fantasizing, my mind goes everywhere and I cannot stop it = =, things just seem to materialize you know P.S. Let me know if you got a job for me in data mining @@, good wishes
  22. Right, the problem is I want to customize my own chromosome through 3D printing DNA, but even then the method of packaging DNA into chromosome is still in question.
  23. Good call, but how do you build a nucleus around the 46 chromosomes? I googled it says nucleus wall rebuild itself during mitosis but the exact method is unknown.
  24. I got 46 chromosomes(that of a human) that needs to be placed into a cell for it to work(agreed?). There are two ways that I am thinking of. 1. Inject chromosomes into a pre-existing cell. 2. Build a cell around the chromosomes. The problem about number 1 is that a chromosome is too big to be inserted into a cell through a virus, and even if you do manage to get it pass the cell wall you still need to get it pass into the nucleus. The pores of the cell nucleus is only 2nm wide(last time I checked if I remember correctly). You could get it past into the nucleus in pieces and re-assemble it inside the cell nucleus but it just sounds like way too much work. The problem about number 2 is it is something I have never even heard of. Do you induce a mitosis around the chromosomes or clone the stem cells? I mean technically there is no cell formation there is only cell replication. Let me know how the recent science would work to complete this P.S. Perhaps injecting chromosomes into a bacterial cell would transform it into a human cell(this would be the concept of transdifferentiation), speculation
  25. When you accelerate close to the speed of light you experience length contraction in which the distance to the end of the universe becomes shorter and therefore the universe is perceived to be smaller, but from another person's point of view that is standing still, the universe is of the original length. So how come each person perceives a different version of the universe based on the speed?
