    A possible new phase of antagonistic nematogens in a disorienting field

    Full text link
    A simple model is proposed for nematogenic molecules that favor perpendicular orientations as well as parallel ones. (Charged rods, for example, show this antagonistic tendency.) When a small disorienting field is applied along zz, a low density phase NN_- of nematic order parameter Sz<0S_z<0 coexists with a dense biaxial nematic NbN_b. (At zero field, NN_- becomes isotropic and NbN_b uniaxial.) But at stronger fields, a new phase N+4N_{+4}, invariant under π/2\pi/2 rotations around the field axis, appears in between NN_- and NbN_b. Prospects for finding the N+4N_{+4} phase experimentally are briefly discussed.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures. Accepted for publication in PR

    Influence of a form field on the properties of water has experimentally fixed for the first time. It has done with the help of measuring a parameter of acid-alkaline activity of water, situating in the various form vessels. It is a first experimental demonstration of existing in the nature of the fields of a physical space form.Впервые экспериментально, с помощью измерения параметра кислотно-щелочной активности воды, находящейся в сосудах различной геометрической формы, зафиксировано влияние поля формы на свойства воды. Это первое экспериментальное доказательство наличия в природе полей формы физического пространства

    Finding the right fit: Enhancing the academic-industry link in the sector for Nutrition undergraduates – a pilot study

    Academic learning experience prepares students for professional life, enriches their scientific-evidence knowledge, whereas laboratory practicals upskill their experiences applying theory into “real world” scenarios. As most undergraduate programmes are not offering placement year, students rely heavily on their initiatives and networking to maximise their continuous professional development (CPD). This study evaluated the supporting mechanisms between academia and industry/ sector and examined staff and students’ perceptions of existing academia-industry collaborations. An online survey was designed to record perceptions of undergraduate’s nutrition students. This was followed by focus groups to establish students’ perceptions of the relevant professional organisations and their related experiences outside academia. Captured students’ feedback together with the nutrition teaching academics responses in individual semi-structured interviews have portrayed the current academic-industry links, the perceived challenges/barriers and probed sensible roadmap. Six themes uncovered the need for extra nutrition-related work experiences, while the students’ perceptions reflected their learning through course progression, awareness of external opportunities and underpinned that graduate readiness improved progressively with years spent in study. The Academics’ interviews recognized the limited academic-industry collaborations and underpinned many barriers faced; more “top-down” support was identified as a strategy to enhance external links. The study provides a clear lens into the present academic-industry links within the nutrition programmes and ascertained the perceived challenges experienced by students and academics. Collaborations and centralised university communications shall promote a better university experience. Equally, staff-student partnerships will facilitate a new approach to understand both staff and students’ perspectives and enhance learning experiences within the sector

    The problem of the influence of the World Wide Web (Internet) on the human brain is discussed. Main focus is on the role of intracellular water of brain, functioning of cells in the brain and the effect of man-made electromagnetic fields computer properties of the human brain and water, respectively in the brain. It is considered separately influence of the Internet on the brain cells work, its memory and intellect (mind) of man. Attention is paid to the problem of modern man's relationship, especially young people, to the Internet.Обсуждается проблема влияния всемирной паутины (Интернета) на мозг человека. Основное внимание обращается на роль внутриклеточной воды мозга, на функционирование клеток мозга и влияние техногенных электромагнитных полей компьютера на свойства воды мозга человека и, соответственно, на работу мозга. Отдельно рассматривается влияние Интернета на работу клеток мозга, его оперативную память и на интеллект (сознание) человека. Обращается внимание на проблему современного отношения человека, особенно молодежи к Интернету

    Get PDF
    This is a research-oriented thesis for Hotel Haikko Manor & Spa that is located in Porvoo. The hotel occupies a niche of exceptionally versatile holiday and business hotel in Finland. Mercuri International and VIA Group awarded the manor with the title of Finland’s best business hotel ten times. Communication is an important part of the organizational life and has a huge impact on the individuals and groups. The effective communication is needed at all stages of the working process and in all parts of the organization to achieve its goals. The thesis investigates forcefulness of the organizational communication in the hotel. The core idea of the study is to underline the importance of well-organized communication process in Haikko Manor & Spa. The theoretical framework concerning the organizational communication concepts, the features and the essence was structured and applied for creating the research questions and their further analyzing. At the planning stage of the questionnaire design process, the author detected a significant need to focus on the internal communication in the hotel. Therefore, the survey questions aimed at identifying and examining possible gaps in the internal communication process among the employees and their superiors. In order to understand the values and the perceptions that emphasize and influence decision-making behavior, the primary data was collected by using the combination of qualitative and quantitative research methodologies. The survey results were further analyzed by using Webropol software tool. The survey findings pointed out the most important issues and aspects for the future commissioner’s development. Such as employee engagement, feedback system and interpersonal communication between the managers and their subordinates.All the research findings and the proposals for improvement were summarised in the recommendation part of this thesis
