Title: Leyden jar Content: The Leyden jarNamed after Leiden University where the device was created. (or Leiden jar) is a device for storing static electricity. It is large glass bottle, usually lined on both the inside and the outside with some type of metal foil. Some of the early ones had water inside. They allow the experimenter to collect a large amount of charge. They are the first form of electrical storage. These methods are known today as 'condensers' or 'capacitors'. The first electrical storage jar was created by Ewald Georg von Kleist on 11 October 1745.Biography, Pieter (Petrus) van Musschenbroek He was the dean of the cathedral of Cammin in Pomerania, on the north coast of Germany (at that time a separate country). He was interested to find whether static electricity could be stored in a bottle, because he knew that electricity could not pass through glass. He thought he might be able to capture and hold a small amount. He only had a small experimental friction generator. He underestimated how much electricity a small medicine bottle could hold by thousands of times. A peculiarity of electricity allows it to continue flowing into the bottle provided the outside of the bottle has an electrically conductive surface connected to the earth. This neutralises the pressure from the charge trying to flow back out. In von Kleist's case, this electrically conductive surface was just his hand, but it was enough to allow a very substantial charge to enter and remain in the jar through a nail he had driven through the cork. When he accidentally touched the nail, he received such a shock that it threw him across the room. He had made a connection between the inside charge and the accumulated outside charge, and since these were opposite signs (one positive and the other negative) all the accumulated charge flowed through his body. He didn't understand why this jar stored so efficiently, but he send a scrambled description to some associates in Berlin, and one copy was sent on to von Klein's old university associate Andreas Cunaeus where it ended up in the hands of Pieter van Musschenbroek, who was the University of Leyden's main physics professor.Thomas S. Kuhn, 1996. The structure of scientific revolutions. University of Chicago Press, 17. He worked out that the storage capacity was vastly improved only if the flask was held in the hand, and his letter to scientist in France gave the jar the name "Leyden jar". For many years the Leyden jar was the main tool of electrical storage, and it remained so until the invention of a chemical battery and electrical generators of the type we use today.

Title: Les Six Content: Les Six (pronounced "Le sees") is French for "The Six". Les Six were a group of six French composers who were friends around the year 1920. They were young at the time, and they shared a lot of ideas about music. The composer Erik Satie called them "Les Nouveaux Jeunes", but then a man called Henri Collet called them "Les Six" in an article he was writing, and that name was always used for them after that. In their music they tried to be different from Richard Wagner and other composers of Romantic music, and different from Debussy and Ravel who had been writing Impressionistic music. They also wanted to write in a simple way instead of using complicated rhythms such as those of Stravinsky or twelve tone music like Arnold Schoenberg. Many of their pieces were quite short. They liked strong, masculine music, especially jazz. The six composers did not stay together for very long as they soon developed their own personal styles in their compositions. == Members == * Georges Auric (1899–1983) wrote lots of rhythmic music which had lots of energy. He wrote music for movies. * Louis Durey (1888–1979) did not want to follow fashion. He used traditional ways of composing and wrote in his own, personal way. * Arthur Honegger (1882–1955) liked chamber music and the symphony. His popular piece Pacific 231 describes a train journey on the Canadian Pacific Railway. * Darius Milhaud (1892–1974) was a very talented composer who wrote in several different styles. Some of his music uses bitonality and polytonality (writing in two or more keys at the same time. His love of jazz can be heard in popular pieces like Le Boeuf sur le Toit which he called a cinema-symphony. * Francis Poulenc (1899–1963) was the most famous of the six composers. He continued to write in a style which was similar to the music of the 1920s. Many of his pieces are often performed today, e.g. Gloria, his ballet Les Biches, some of his chamber music and many songs. * Germaine Tailleferre (1892–1983) was the only female in the group. She liked to use dance rhythms. She was the only member of Les Six to earn diplomas from the Paris Conservatory. She loved children and animals and wrote many works about them. She also wrote operas, concertos, and many works for the piano. == After 1920 == It was really only in 1920 that all six composers were together. They had all been inspired by Jean Cocteau and Eric Satie. By 1921 Louis Durey had already left the group. Les Six continued to be associated with the style of French music from around the 1920s. They still remained friends, and used to visit a bar known as "La Gaya" which became Le Boeuf sur le Toit (The Ox on the Roof): the title of Milhaud's ballet. The group published an album of piano pieces together called "Album des Six". Five of the members worked together on the music for Cocteau's work Les Mariés de la Tour Eiffel The name "The Six" was a reference to the group of Russian composers who had been known as "The Five".

Title: Abelian group Content: In group theory, an abelian group is a group with operation that is commutative. Because of that, an abelian group is sometimes called a ‘commutative group’. A group in which the group operation is not commutative is called a ‘non-abelian group’ or ‘non-commutative group’. == Definition == An abelian group is a set, A, together with an operation "•". It combines any two elements a and b to form another element denoted . For the group to be abelian, the operation and the elements must follow some requirements. These are known as the abelian group axioms: ;Closure: For all a, b in A, the result of the operation a • b is also in A. ;Associativity: For all a, b and c in A, the equation (a • b) • c = a • (b • c) is true. ;Identity element: There exists an element e in A, such that for all elements a in A, the equation holds. ;Inverse element: For each a in A, there exists an element b in A such that a • b = b • a = e, where e is the identity element. ;Commutativity: For all a, b in A, a • b = b • a. == Examples == One example of an abelian group is the set of the integers with the operation of addition. We often write this as (\mathbb, +) is a group, and also for any integers a and b, the equation a+b = b+a is true. For example, 3 + 6 = 6 + 3, because both sides are equal to 9.

Title: Sieve of Eratosthenes Content: thumb|300px|Animation of the Sieve of Eratosthenes up to 120 (with the optimization of starting from squares). The Sieve of Eratosthenes is a simple way to find all the prime numbers up to some number n: # Write all the numbers from 2 up to n onto a piece of paper, in order. We will perform the following steps so that all the non-prime numbers will be crossed out, and what's left will be the primes. # Choose the first, i.e. the smallest available number. Call it p (it will be 2 at the start). If there's no more available numbers, stop. # Count up from p as 2p, 3p, 4p, ..., up to n in steps of p, and cross out each of those numbers. Some numbers will be already crossed out, that's okay. Do not cross out the number p itself but consider it no longer available. # Go back to step 2. When the algorithm is finished all the numbers that are left not crossed out are all the prime numbers from 2 up to n. As an optimization we can start the counting in step 3 from p2, and stop in step 2 when p2 is greater than n. This is allowed because for each number k that is smaller than p, the number kp in step 3 will be already crossed out as part of the algorithm working for some previous prime that is smaller than p – the smallest such prime which divides k evenly.

Title: Capitulation of Alexandria Content: thumb|Battle of the Pyramids 1798 The Capitulation of Alexandria was an important event in the struggle between France and Britain for influence in the Middle East in the years around 1800 AD. The French campaign in Egypt and Syria (1798–1801) was part of Napoleon Bonaparte's campaign in the East. His plan was to protect French trade, undermine Britain's access to India, and establish scientific enterprise in the region. His Mediterranean campaign of 1798, a series of naval engagements that included the capture of Malta, prepared the way for the attack on Egypt. In July, he defeated British and Mameluke forces at the Battle of the Pyramids and took control of Egypt. The British responded at the Battle of the Nile, in 1798, when the Royal Navy, under Horatio Nelson, defeated the French fleet off the coast of Egypt. The French fleet was almost completely destroyed, which changed the balance of power between the two nations at war in the Mediterranean. On land in Egypt, the French were opposed by a joint force of British and Ottoman troops. The defeated French retreated to Alexandria, the second city of Egypt, where the British-led force surrounded them. On 30 August 1801, French General Abdullah Jacques-François Menou offered to surrender and proposed terms. The terms were adjusted and then agreed. The event and the treaty is known as the Capitulation of Alexandria. Under the articles of the treaty is this item: :"the Arabian manuscripts, the statues, and the other collections which have been made for the French Republic, shall be considered as public property, and subject to the disposal of the generals of the combined army". That made Britain get hold of the Rosetta Stone and other Egyptian antiquities collected by the French Commission des Sciences et des Arts and the scholars of the Institute d'Egypte.
Title: American bison Content: 200px|right|thumb|A bison running The American bison (also called American buffalo or just buffalo) is a bovine mammal. The name "buffalo" is a misnomer, because the bison is only distantly related to the water buffalo and the African buffalo. Bison are a keystone species. Their staple foods are grasses and sedges. They once roamed the North American continent in great herds, and their grazing helped shape the ecology of the Great Plains. The bisons has a large head with relatively small, curving horns. Its dark brown coat is long and shaggy on the forequarters, including the front legs, neck, and shoulders, while the rest of the body has shorter, finer hair. American bison live in river valleys, and on prairies and plains. Typical habitat is open or semi- open grassland, as well as sagebrush, semi-arid lands and scrublands. Bison will also graze in hilly or mountainous areas where the slopes are not steep. Though not particularly known as high altitude animals, bison in the Yellowstone Park are frequently found at elevations above and the Henry Mountains bison herd is found on the plains around the Henry Mountains, Utah, as well as in mountain valleys of the Henry Mountains to an altitude of . Although bison once roamed across North America, they are now ecologically extinct over most of their historic range. They live on in a few national parks and other small wildlife areas. There used to be as many as 30 million bison in the United States, but because of hunting, by 1890, only 1,000 bison were left. Through conservation efforts, there are now more American bison than there used to be, but still far fewer than there were before the 1800s. The American bison is often used in North America in official seals, flags, and logos. In 2016, the American bison became the national mammal of the United States. ==As livestock== thumb|Ground bison patties Bisons have been used as livestock.
