Dizziness With Hot Flashes

first look inside



I'm around Google I really enjoyed it. Maybe because I am in Germany, and then it seemed more beautiful, but the words "to X-ray " to commemorate the discovery by Wilhelm Rontgen in 1895 I found it effective. At that time several scientists were there that we turned them around, but between a CRT and the other was the German physicist who had the final insight. As usual, the exclamation: "Well! That was it, I was there almost there, too," but here he comes to us seriously. The gnawing and colleagues in 1901 took home the Nobel Prize, to be right next to the right hand of the holy lady Rontgen a photo so that certainly had never been done before.





The hand of Bertha Roentgen radiographed. The picture was published in the New York Times January 16, 1896

Now imagine a second experiment (referred to in a nutshell): in a vacuum tube subjected to high voltage electrical discharges are produced some. Since everything is covered with a dark cloth you should not see anything. But the scientist notes that a slab of barium platinocianuro emits fluorescence in the vicinity every time part of a discharge; gulp. For then the same type radiation Rontgen that belonged just did not know so much so that he called them "X-ray."
certainly see the effects for the first time must have been disconcerting and shocking: the photos already fascinated normal, but the ability to see things and people "from within" was quite another thing. On the other hand, if you still sell glasses to look through clothing for ladies and gentlemen it is easy to say what could arise in the imagination of those present at the time (ordinary mortals, but scientists were already taken and all in raptures for a new golf explore). Indeed
X-rays have the amazing and attempts voyeur party, allow to obtain information about the number of X-rayed. Their application, in fact, is not only the medical diagnosis. Increasingly in the art of restoration, for example, uses this type of scan to examine the works: being able observe the internal structure in the case of artefacts and sculptures, to see what lies behind the image "official" in case of the paintings. E 'in this way can also help in identifying the damaged parts of a picture and discover the fakes.

This instead I made it (not the X-ray) in a show some time ago at the Picasso Museum in Paris. Have you ever wondered how it is made into a sculpture?


And then there are those like Nick Veasey X-ray is the artistic creations and not satisfied with the simple camera and goes around with a contraption that looks like the Ghostbusters.
