Title: Paleontology Content: Palaeontology or paleontology is the study of fossils of living things, and their phylogeny (evolutionary relationships).Prothero, Donald R. 2007. Evolution: what the fossils say and why it matters. Columbia University Press, New York. It depends on basic sciences such as zoology, botany and historical geology. The term palaeobiology implies that the study will include the palaeoecology of the groups in question. In palaeozoology, the evolution of those phyla with fossil records are studied. In palaeobotany, fossil plants are studied. In historical geology the formation, sequence and dating of rock strata give information about past environments. A fossil is any kind of life that is more than ten thousand years old and preserved in any form that we can study today.Levin, Harold L. 2005. The Earth through time. 8th ed, Wiley, N.Y. Chapter 4: The fossil record. The fossil record is always incomplete, and later discoveries may extend the known survival of a group. See Lazarus taxon. Some palaeontologists study fossils of microorganisms, living things that are too small to see without a microscope, while other palaeontologists study fossils of giant dinosaurs. *Vertebrate palaeontology: the palaeontology of vertebrate animals *Invertebrate palaeontology: the palaeontology of invertebrate animals == Related pages == * Lagerstätte * Paleoanthropology
Title: Alcubierre drive Content: thumbnail|350px|Two-dimensional visualization of an Alcubierre drive. The Alcubierre drive or Alcubierre warp drive is an idea for a faster-than-light travel engine. The Mexican theoretical physicist Miguel Alcubierre created this idea using Albert Einstein's field equations in general relativity. The main principle of this idea is by creating an energy-density field lower than that of a vacuum (that is, negative mass) to make the space in front of the ship contract and the space behind the ship expand. In theory, this would create a bubble in space-time around the craft, allowing it to stay still while the space around it moves. This would effectively avoid breaking Einstein's rule that no object in our universe may go as fast or faster than the speed of light, while still allowing an object to go to another very distant part of space much faster than light.

Amis was a fan of jazz music. He liked the American musicians Sidney Bechet, Henry "Red" Allen and Pee Wee Russell. His first novel Lucky Jim was very successfull.

Title: Plectrohyla ixil Content: The ixil spikethumb frog (Plectrohyla ixil) is a frog that lives in Mexico and northwestern Guatemala. Scientists have seen it between 1175 and 1690 meters above sea level in cloud forests in the Meseta Central (central tableland) in Chiapas.
Title: Hyperon Content: Hyperons are particles that are made of quarks. What makes them different from other baryons (particles made of three quarks) is that they must have at least one strange quark, but no charm quarks or bottom quarks. Strange quarks have a property known as strangeness. Strangeness causes the strange quark–and all other particles bonded with it–to not decay by strong force, but instead due to the much slower weak force. Since all quarks are fermions (which means that no two of them can be in the same point in space at the same point in time), each quark has a spin of 1/2, adding up to a total spin of 3/2 for a hyperon. This quickly decays into a 1/2 spin particle. Hyperons themselves decay due to weak force. There are dozens of different hyperon combinations. For example, a Λ (lambda) hyperon has a charge of 0, and is often written as Λ0. When it decays, it usually creates one proton, and one antipion. Like many forms of weak force decay, there is more than one possible outcome. A Λ0 also has a significantly lower, but still possible, chance to decay into a neutron and an uncharged pion. Λ0 hyperons have an average lifespan of 2.6x10−10 seconds, which makes it one of the longest living hyperons. Scientists still study hyperons in labs across the world, such as CERN, Fermilab, and SLAC. Hyperons provide answers questions for problems such as CP Violation, in which symmetries that were believed to be true may not be true. Category:Quantum mechanics Category:Subatomic particles

Swordfish are elongated, round-bodied, and lose all teeth and scales by adulthood. The International Game Fish Association's all-tackle angling record for a swordfish was a 1,182 lb (535.15 kg) specimen taken off Chile in 1953. They are the sole member of their family Xiphiidae. == Features == The swordfish is named after its sharp bill, resembling a sword (Latin gladius), which together with its streamlined physique (smooth body) allows it to cut through the water with great ease and agility. Swordfish are fast predators of other fish. The "sword" is not used to spear, but may be used to slash at its prey to injure the prey animal, to make for an easier catch.Gardieff S. Swordfish. Florida Museum of Natural History. Mainly, the swordfish relies on its great speed and agility in the water to catch its enemy. It is among the fastest fish.ReefQuest Centre for Shark Research. Haulin' Bass. Quote: "The 60 mph figure listed for the swordfish is based on a corrupted version of calculations made by Sir James Gray to estimate the impact speed necessary for a hypothetical 600-lb swordfish to embed its sword 3 feet in the timbers of ships, as has been known to occur. The figure seems to have entered the literature without question." Accessed 26 December 2011. == As food == Swordfish is a particularly popular fish for cooking. Since swordfish are large animals, meat is usually sold as steaks, which are often grilled. The color of the flesh varies by diet, with fish caught on the east coast of North America often being rosier. However, many sources including the United States Food and Drug Administration warn about potential toxicity (how poisonous it is) from high levels of methylmercury in swordfish.
