Nairaland GeneralSaudi Arabia Forms Muslim 'anti-terrorism' Coalition by ikon123(op): 10:05am On Dec 15, 2015
ISIL
Saudi Arabia has formed a coalition of 34 mainly Muslim
countries - including powers such as Egypt and Turkey - to
coordinate a fight against "terrorist organisations".
The alliance was announced by the country's defence minister
and deputy crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman, on Tuesday.
Arab countries such as Qatar and the UAE will join the
coalition, as well as Middle Eastern, Asian, and African states,
including Turkey, Pakistan, Malaysia, and Nigeria.
Saudi Arabia's regional rival Iran and its allies Syria and Iraq,
were excluded from the alliance despite the states sharing a
common enemy in the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant
(ISIL) group.
Bin Salman said the states would work together to target "any
terrorist organisation, not just ISIL" in countries including
Iraq, Syria. Libya, Egypt, and Afghanistan.
Military operations would work in accordance with local laws
and in cooperation with the international community, he
added.
In an earlier press statement issued by the Saudi Press Agency,
officials said the group would be led by Saudi Arabia and the
country would host a "joint operations centre to coordinate"
efforts.
ISIL threat
Most of the countries in the coalition are currently involved in
military operations against ISIL or have been targeted by the
group.
Saudi Arabia and its Gulf allies have carried out air strikes
against the fighters in Syria and were targeted by the group in
Yemen, where they are involved in a separate war against Iran-
backed Houthi rebels.
In August, an ISIL suicide bomber killed 15 people, mainly
special forces soldiers, at a mosque in Asir province bordering
Yemen.
ISIL has also targeted Saudi Arabia's Shia minority, killing
dozens in bomb attacks targeting mosques.
Saudi authorities have carried out raids detaining hundreds of
suspected ISIL members and sympathisers in response.

Science/TechnologyThe V-280 Valor Will Be The Most Versatile Aircraft In The Sky.(photos) by ikon123(op): 8:57am On Aug 05, 2015
Future conflicts will favor faster, nimbler military forces—think precision strikes and special ops. “The military needs assets that allow them to project their combat power more rapidly,” says Keith Flail, a program director at Bell Helicopter. It needs an aircraft that can hover for tactical maneuvers but also conquer the “tyranny of distance.”
The V-280 Valor could do just that. Its tilt-rotor design allows the craft to take off and land vertically, like a helicopter, or pitch its rotors forward to fly horizontally, like a turboprop plane. It stands to be safer and more agile than its clunky cousin, the V-22 Osprey. And at twice the speed and combat range of the Army’s current workhorse, the Black Hawk helicopter, the V-280 could vastly extend the reach of U.S. ground forces.
"Our nation and our service members should never have to fight a fair fight."
—Keith Flail, director of the Future Vertical Lift program at Bell Helicopter
Bell Helicopter's design is vying for the top spot in the Army’s Future Vertical Liftprogram, which aims to develop a family of next-generation rotorcraft. If chosen, the V-280, or something like it, could be navigating the skies by 2030.

Science/TechnologyWorld's Thinnest Light Bulb Created From Graphene by ikon123(op): 12:15pm On Aug 03, 2015
Graphene, a form of carbon famous for being stronger than steel and more conductive than copper, can add another wonder to the list: making light.
Researchers have developed a light-emitting graphenetransistor that works in the same way as the filament in a light bulb.
"We've created what is essentially the world's thinnest light bulb," study co-author James Hone, a mechanical engineer at Columbia University in New York, said in a statement.
Scientists have long wanted to create a teensy "light bulb" to place on a chip, enabling what is called photonic circuits, which run on light rather than electric current. The problem has been one of size and temperature — incandescent filaments must get extremely hot before they can produce visible light. This new graphene device, however, is so efficient and tiny, the resulting technology could offer new ways to make displays or study high-temperature phenomena at small scales, the researchers said. [ 8 Chemical Elements You've Never Heard Of]
Making light
When electric current is passed through an incandescent light bulb's filament— usually made of tungsten— the filament heats up and glows. Electrons moving through the material knock against electrons in the filament's atoms, giving them energy. Those electrons return to their former energy levels and emit photons (light) in the process. Crank up the current and voltage enough and the filament in the light bulb hits temperatures of about 5,400 degrees Fahrenheit (3,000 degrees Celsius) for an incandescent. This is one reason light bulbs either have no air in them or are filled with an inert gas like argon: At those temperatures tungsten would react with the oxygen in air and simply burn.
In the new study, the scientists used strips of graphene a few microns across and from 6.5 to 14 microns in length, each spanning a trench of siliconlike a bridge. (A micron is one-millionth of a meter, where a hair is about 90 microns thick.) An electrode was attached to the ends of each graphene strip. Just like tungsten, run a current through graphene and the material will light up. But there is an added twist, as graphene conducts heat less efficiently as temperature increases, which means the heat stays in a spot in the center, rather than being relatively evenly distributed as in a tungsten filament.
Myung-Ho Bae, one of the study's authors, told Live Science trapping the heat in one region makes the lighting more efficient. "The temperature of hot electrons at the center of the graphene is about 3,000 K [4,940 F], while the graphene lattice temperature is still about 2,000 K [3,140 F]," he said. "It results in a hotspot at the center and the light emission region is focused at the center of the graphene, which also makes for better efficiency." It's also the reason the electrodes at either end of the graphene don't melt.
As for why this is the first time light has been made from graphene, study co-leader Yun Daniel Park, a professor of physics at Seoul National University, noted that graphene is usually embedded in or in contact with a substrate.
"Physically suspending graphene essentially eliminates pathways in which heat can escape," Park said. "If the graphene is on a substrate, much of the heat will be dissipated to the substrate. Before us, other groups had only reported inefficient radiation emission in the infrared from graphene."
The light emitted from the graphene also reflected off the silicon that each piece was suspended in front of. The reflected light interferes with the emitted light, producing a pattern of emission with peaks at different wavelengths. That opened up another possibility: tuning the light by varying the distance to the silicon.
The principle of the graphene is simple, Park said, but it took a long time to discover.
"It took us nearly five years to figure out the exact mechanism but everything (all the physics) fit. And, the project has turned out to be some kind of a Columbus' Egg," he said, referring to a legend in which Christopher Columbuschallenged a group of men to make an egg stand on its end; they all failed and Columbus solved the problem by just cracking the shell at one end so that it had a flat bottom.
The research is detailed in today's (June 15) issue of Nature Nantechnology.

CelebritiesNew Weird Way Of Changing Skin Colour.(picture) by ikon123(op):
This is unbelievable and yet real. According to a publication of the Moscow Faculty of Sciences , researchers have developed a chemical process to « whiten » quickly a person.
With a mixture that includes oxytane and benzodiazepine. It would suffice to stay for 6 hours in a bath consisting of 50grams per liter of water.
Then the skin peels off naturally. This is in fact the upper skin layer responsible for the color that can be removed.
The laboratory at the origin of the discovery has already announced 254 people have been treated by this method. The Russian government may soon allow the reimbursement of this treatment.
According to Russian authorities, is an high value for thousands of immigrants who may feel more integrated in Russia once their color matches the one of the premises.
A strong point of view decried by the associations of human rights.
