Arrondissements of the Haute-Savoie department
There are 4 arrondissements in the Haute-Savoie department. The French departments, and in other countries, are divided into "arrondissements", which may be translated into English as districts (in some cases, as boroughs). The capital of an arrondissement is called a subprefecture.
If the prefecture (capital) of the department is in an arrondissement, that prefecture is the capital of the arrondissement, acting both as a prefecture and as a subprefecture.
Arrondissements are further divided into communes.
The arrondissements of the Haute-Savoie are:
Since its creation in 1860, the Haute-Savoie department has had few changes:
Arrondissement of Annecy
The arrondissement of Annecy is an arrondissement of France. It is part of the Haute-Savoie "département", Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. Its capital, and the prefecture of the department, is the city of Annecy.
When the Haute-Savoie department was created in 1860, the "arrondissement" of Annecy was part of that original department.
The "arrondissement" of Annecy is bordered to the northwest by the "arrondissement" of Saint-Julien-en-Genevois, to the northeast by the "arrondissement" of Bonneville, and to the south by the Savoie department.
It is the most southern "arrondissement" of the department and is the second largest "arrondissement" with an area of , but the first in population, with 276,382 inhabitants and a density of inhabitants/km².
After the reorganisation of the cantons in France, cantons are not subdivisions of the "arrondissements" so they could have "communes" that belong to different "arrondissements".
In the "arrondissement" of Annecy, there are 7 cantons:
The "arrondissement" of Annecy has 80 "communes"; they are (with their INSEE codes):
The "communes" with more inhabitants in the "arrondissement" are:
Bean (disambiguation)
A bean is a large seed of several plants in the family "Fabaceae", including the seed of the common bean.
Bean or beans may also refer to:
French Tech
French Tech is a French label awarded to metropolitan centers recognized for their ecosystem of startups, as well as a common brand that can be used by French innovative companies.
The French Tech aims in particular to give a strong visual identity to the French startups, as well as to encourage exchanges between them.
This label was created in 2013 by the French government.
Exotic atom
An exotic atom is an atom that has a particle replaced by a particle of the same charge. For example, Positronium, an exotic atom, contains an electron and a positron. The positron (which is the antiparticle of the electron) replaces a proton which would normally be found in that atom. Most exotic atoms are hard to discover, because they decay very quickly. Positronium on average has a half-life (how long until half of the object is gone via decay) of 0.125 nanoseconds. There are a few types of exotic atom.
A muonic atom is an exotic atom that has a muon, instead of an electron, orbiting the nucleus. Because a muon is much more massive than an electron, the muon orbits much closer to the nucleus.
A hadronic atom is an exotic atom that has an electron replaced by a negatively charged hadron. The hadron could be a meson (such as a pion or a kaon, creating a pionic atom or a kaonic atom, respectively). Another hadronic atom is an antiproton (antiparticle of the proton) atom, that has an antiproton replacing an electron. This is known as an antiprotonic atom.
An onium is an exotic atom that has a particle bound to its antiparticle. A good example is Positronium, which is an electron bound to a positron.
A hypernuclear atom is an exotic atom that contains strange particles (a particle that is made of a strange quark) called hyperons.
Plum pudding model
The plum pudding model is an early 20th century model of an atom. It was later found to be wrong. It was proposed by J.J. Thomson in 1904, after the electron had been discovered, but before the atomic nucleus was discovered. During that time, scientists knew that there was a positive charge in the atom that balanced out the negative charges of the electrons, making the atom neutral, but they didn't know where the positive charge was coming from. Thomson's model showed an atom that had a positively charged medium, or space, with negatively charged electrons inside the medium. Soon after its proposal, the model was called a "plum pudding" model because the positive medium was like a pudding, with electrons, or plums, inside.
In 1909, not long after Thomson's model was proposed, Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden made an experiment with thin sheets of gold, to test Thomson's model. Their professor, Ernest Rutherford, expected the results to prove Thomson correct, but their results were extremely different to what they were expecting. In 1911, Rutherford discovered that the positive charges come from tiny particles called protons, and that the protons were in a tiny center called the nucleus, and that the electrons were orbiting around the nucleus.
Rutherford's model was quite simple, but it was later disproved because electrons have charge, and they should be attracted to the positively charged nucleus. In 1913, Niels Bohr added 'energy levels' to the atomic model. Electrons don't fall into the nucleus because they are contained in energy levels, and to change to higher energy levels extra energy is needed, and to change to lower energy levels a release of energy is needed. It is not possible to change energy states without changing the energy of the electron. If an electron gets hit by a photon (a particle that carries electromagnetic radiation) it will gain extra energy and go into a higher energy level (it changes states), then it will jump back down to a lower energy level, releasing its contained energy. This new model was called the Bohr model or the Rutherford-Bohr model. This added a whole new branch of science: Quantum physics.
In 1926 Erwin Schrödinger used the idea that electrons acted as a wave, as well as a particle, this is known as a wave-particle duality. This added a whole new layer to the atomic model and quantum physics. With a particle, you can know where it is in space if you observe (look) at it. But with a wave, it is all over the place, so you can't define where exactly it is. This is known as quantum uncertainty. With an electron, you can only know the probability of it being in a place, because it is a wave as well as a particle. (See diagram above)
World Nuclear Association
The World Nuclear Association is an organisation that tries to educate people about nuclear energy, and helps companies that are in the nuclear industry.
Weetzen
Weetzen is a village in the city of Ronnenberg in Lower Saxony, Germany. In 2011, about 2000 people lived there.
Arrondissement of Bonneville
The arrondissement of Bonneville is an arrondissement of France. It is part of the Haute-Savoie "département", Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. Its capital, and a subprefecture of the department, is the city of Bonneville.
When the Haute-Savoie department was created in 1860, the "arrondissement" of Bonneville was part of that original department.
The "arrondissement" of Bonneville is bordered to the north by the "arrondissement" of Thonon-les-Bains, to the east by Switzerland, to the southeast by Italy, to the south by the Savoie department, to the southwest by the "arrondissement" of Annecy and to the west by the "arrondissement" of Saint-Julien-en-Genevois.
