Quantum recognition of a human story

It starts with the water...then you put a hair in it, see below.
A water molecule can vibrate in various ways, but the easiest type of vibration to excite is the "flexing' mode in which the hydrogen atoms move toward and away from each other but the HO bonds do not stretch. The oscillations of this mode are approximately harmonic, with a frequency of 4.8 x 1013Hz.
Matter including water has a nucleus... that's nuclear.
In 1911, Ernest Rutherford discovered that at the core of every atom is a nucleus. Atomic nuclei consist of electrically positive protons and electrically neutral neutrons. These are held together by the strongest known fundamental force, called the strong force. This is leaving out several forces... that are nuclear, including weak force bosons W and Z.
Hydrogen and oxygen isotope ratios in human hair are related to geography
We develop and test a model to predict the geographic region-of-origin of humans based on the stable isotope composition of their scalp hair. This model incorporates exchangeable and nonexchangeable hydrogen and oxygen atoms in amino acids to predict the δ2H and δ18O values of scalp hair (primarily keratin). We evaluated model predictions with stable isotope analyses of human hair from 65 cities across the United States. The model, which predicts hair isotopic composition as a function of drinking water, bulk diet, and dietary protein isotope ratios, explains >85% of the observed variation and reproduces the observed slopes relating the isotopic composition of hair samples to that of local drinking water.
Fragmented Nuclear DNA Is the Predominant Genetic Material in Human Hair Shafts
The data reflect trends that have been demonstrated previously with other technologies, namely that mtDNA quantity and quality decrease along the length of the hair shaft.
Human Hair Inverse Rendering using Multi-View Photometric data
We introduce a hair inverse rendering framework to reconstruct high-fidelity 3D geometry of human hair, as well as its reflectance, which can be readily used for photorealistic rendering of hair. We take multi-view photometric data as input, i.e., a set of images taken from various viewpoints and different lighting conditions.
Emission theory (vision)
Some argued that Euclid's version of emission theory was purely metaphorical, highlighting mainly the geometrical relations between eyes and objects. The geometry of classical optics is equivalent no matter which direction light is considered to move because light is modeled by its path, not as a moving object. However, his theory of clarity of vision (the circular appearance of far rectangular objects) makes sense only if the ray emits from eyes.
The Science Behind Optical Gas Imaging
The OGI camera uses a unique spectral filter method that enables it to detect a gas compound. The filter is mounted in front of the detector and cooled along with it to prevent any radiation exchange between the filter and the detector. The filter restricts the wavelengths of radiation allowed to pass through to the detector to a very narrow band called the band pass. This technique is called spectral adaptation.
Scanning Electron Microscopy
Scanning electron microscopy is a highly versatile technique used to obtain high-resolution images and detailed surface information of samples. It is a type of electron microscopy that uses a focused beam of electrons to scan the surface of a specimen and generate images at a much greater resolution compared to optical microscopy. The resolution of SEM instruments can range from < 1 nanometer up to several nanometers.
Transmission Electron Microscopy
Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is an analytical technique used to visualize the smallest structures in matter. Unlike optical microscopes, which rely on light in the visible spectrum, TEM can reveal stunning detail at the atomic scale by magnifying nanometer structures up to 50 million times. This is because electrons can have a significantly shorter wavelength (about 100,000 times smaller) than that of visible light when accelerated through a strong electromagnetic field, thus increasing the microscope resolution by several orders of magnitude.
A Yale experiment caught a quantum system in the middle of a jump — something the originators of quantum mechanics assumed was impossible.

Quantum Jump
A quantum jump refers to the sudden transition of the internal state of an atom when it emits or absorbs a quantum of light energy. It is associated with the exchange of energy between two systems and has important applications in quantum measurements, time and frequency standards, and precision spectroscopy. Quantum jumps have been observed in various microscopic systems and are studied in the field of quantum optics.
New Views of Quantum Jumps Challenge Core Tenets of Physics
One of the most basic processes in all of nature—a subatomic particle’s transition between discrete energy states—is surprisingly complex and sometimes predictable, recent work shows.
