The Bohr paradox

physicsworld.com, by Robert P Crease - In history books, Bohr’s chief contribution to physics is usually said to be “the Bohr atom” — his application in 1912–3 of the still-recent quantum hypothesis to overcome instabilities in Rutherford’s “solar-system” model of the atom, in which electrons travelled in fixed orbits around a positively charged nucleus. But this brilliant intuitive leap, in which Bohr assembled several puzzling features from insufficient data, was soon superseded by more sophisticated models.

You might be surprised by what’s in charge of your body

Chronicle Review - The deepest, most private recesses of our genome might seem, if not sacrosanct, at least the inner sanctum of our “selves.” But consider this: More than four times as much space in the human genome is occupied by “endogenous retroviruses” than by all the genes that code for the [...]
