1. THE REAL ACCELERATION OF TIME From the school physics course we know that, according to the theory of relativity, space can contract and time can slow down (stretch).

One of the most mysterious inventions of our time is the hadron collider.

In the middle of the last century physics was considered a very popular and fashionable science all over the world.

Barkhausen effect - a stepwise change in the magnetisation of ferromagnets under a continuous change in external conditions, for example a magnetic field.

Barnett effect , the magnetisation of ferromagnets when they are rotated in the absence of a magnetic field; discovered in 1909 by the American physicist S.
