Trần Đức Thiệp
Trần Đức Thiệp (; ) (born 1949) is a Vietnamese nuclear scientist and former deputy director of Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology. In 1992, he accidentally put his hand over an electron beam, leading to amputation of his right hand and International Atomic Energy Agency's investigation of safety practices of Hanoi's Institute for Nuclear Science and Technology. Early life and career Thiệp was born in Yên Hồ ward, Đức Thọ district, Hà Tĩnh province, with seven other siblings. His mother was in bad health making her unable to make income, and his father died when Thiệp was in fourth grade. To alleviate the financial situation, Thiệp frequented Vinh for summer break work. After graduating high school, he enrolled in Sofia University in Bulgaria, initially intending to graduate in geodesy, but he changed his discipline to physics and refined to nuclear physics in his second year in university. He cited Tzvetan Bonchev, a Bulgarian professor in nuclea ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Đức Thọ District
There are many widely varying names of Germany in different languages, more so than for any other European nation. For example: * the German language endonym is , from the Old High German , meaning "of the people"; * the French exonym is , from the name of the Alamanni tribe; * in Italian it is , from the Latin , although the German people are called , which is a cognate with German ; * in Polish it is , from the Proto-Slavic ''*němьcь'', referring to speechless, incomprehensible to Slavic speakers; * the Finnish call the country , from the name of the Saxon tribe; * in Lithuanian it is , of unclear origin, but possibly from Proto-Balto-Slavic ''*vākyā-'', meaning “those who speak loud, shout (unintelligibly)”. Often language lags behind the changing society and names tend to retain references to first encounters: the Finnish first and foremost met the Saxons while the French faced the Alamanni. Comparable tendencies appear elsewhere, e.g. in names for Russia ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Subsidy Period
''Thời bao cấp'' () generally refers to the period between 2 July 1976 and 18 December 1986 (Vietnamese reunification to the beginning of Đổi Mới economic reforms) when Vietnam was under Soviet-type economic planning during relative peacetime. Although North Vietnam's economy had been under Soviet-type economic planning Soviet-type economic planning (STP) is the specific model of Planned economy#Central planning, centralized planning employed by Marxism–Leninism, Marxist–Leninist socialist states modeled on the economy of the Soviet Union. The post-''pere ... since 1954, it usually does not considered belonging to the ''bao cấp'' era as the country was under division and war. References Vietnam {{econ-hist-stub ...

Developing Country
A developing country is a sovereign state with a less-developed industrial base and a lower Human Development Index (HDI) relative to developed countries. However, this definition is not universally agreed upon. There is also no clear agreement on which countries fit this category. The terms low-and middle-income country (LMIC) and newly emerging economy (NEE) are often used interchangeably but they refer only to the economy of the countries. The World Bank classifies the world's economies into four groups, based on gross national income per capita: high-, upper-middle-, lower-middle-, and low-income countries. Least developed countries, landlocked developing countries, and small island developing states are all sub-groupings of developing countries. Countries on the other end of the spectrum are usually referred to as high-income countries or developed countries. There are controversies over the terms' use, as some feel that it perpetuates an outdated concept of "us" and ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Fibrosis
Fibrosis, also known as fibrotic scarring, is the development of fibrous connective tissue in response to an injury. Fibrosis can be a normal connective tissue deposition or excessive tissue deposition caused by a disease. Repeated injuries, chronic inflammation and repair are susceptible to fibrosis, where an accidental excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix components, such as the collagen, is produced by fibroblasts, leading to the formation of a permanent fibrotic scar. In response to injury, this is called scarring, and if fibrosis arises from a single cell line, this is called a fibroma. Physiologically, fibrosis acts to deposit connective tissue, which can interfere with or totally inhibit the normal architecture and function of the underlying organ or tissue. Fibrosis can be used to describe the pathological state of excess deposition of fibrous tissue, as well as the process of connective tissue deposition in healing. Defined by the pathological accumulation of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Amputation
Amputation is the removal of a Limb (anatomy), limb or other body part by Physical trauma, trauma, medical illness, or surgery. As a surgical measure, it is used to control pain or a disease process in the affected limb, such as cancer, malignancy or gangrene. In some cases, it is carried out on individuals as a Preventive healthcare, preventive surgery for such problems. A special case is that of congenital amputation, a congenital disorder, where fetus, fetal limbs have been cut off by constrictive bands. In some countries, judicial amputation is currently used punishment, to punish people who commit crimes. Amputation has also been used as a tactic in war and acts of terrorism; it may also occur as a war injury. In some cultures and religions, minor amputations or mutilations are considered a ritual accomplishment. When done by a person, the person executing the amputation is an amputator. The oldest evidence of this practice comes from a skeleton found buried in Liang Tebo c ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Tissue Necrosis
Necrosis () is a form of cell injury which results in the premature death of cells in living tissue by autolysis. The term "necrosis" came about in the mid-19th century and is commonly attributed to German pathologist Rudolf Virchow, who is often regarded as one of the founders of modern pathology. Necrosis is caused by factors external to the cell or tissue, such as infection, or trauma which result in the unregulated digestion of cell components. In contrast, ''apoptosis'' is a naturally occurring programmed and targeted cause of cellular death. While apoptosis often provides beneficial effects to the organism, necrosis is almost always detrimental and can be fatal. Cellular death due to necrosis does not follow the apoptotic signal transduction pathway, but rather various receptors are activated and result in the loss of cell membrane integrity and an uncontrolled release of products of cell death into the extracellular space. This initiates an inflammatory response in the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Neutron Generator
Neutron generators are neutron source devices which contain compact linear particle accelerators and that produce neutrons by fusing isotopes of hydrogen together. The nuclear fusion, fusion reactions take place in these devices by accelerating either deuterium, tritium, or a mixture of these two isotopes into a metal hydride target which also contains deuterium, tritium or a mixture of these isotopes. Fusion of deuterium atoms (D + D) results in the formation of a helium-3 ion and a neutron with a kinetic energy of approximately 2.5 MeV. Fusion of a deuterium and a tritium atom (D + T) results in the formation of a helium-4 ion and a neutron with a kinetic energy of approximately 14.1 MeV. Neutron generators have applications in medicine, security, and materials analysis. The basic concept was first developed by Ernest Rutherford's team in the Cavendish Laboratory in the early 1930s. Using a linear accelerator driven by a Cockcroft–Walton generator, Mark Oliphant l ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
