Alexander Naumann. Alexander Nikolaus Franz Naumann (31 July 1837 – 16 March 1922) was a Prussian and German physical chemist and a professor at the University of Giessen. He was a pioneer of chemical thermodynamics and proposed that molecules reacted when their energy levels exceeded a certain critical level which could be achieved through the provision of heat. 

Naumann was born in Eudorf near Alsfeld where his father, Carl Naumann (1805-1886), was a Protestant minister. He was educated at the Gymnasium in Darmstadt before he went to the University of Giessen where he received a doctorate in 1859. His doctoral work was on the bromination of acetyl chloride. He then taught at a high school and joined the University of Giessen in 1869, becoming a full professor and succeeding Justus von Liebig in 1882. He suggested in 1867 that molecules with an energy above a certain threshold could react with each other and that this energy could be provided through heat which increased the reaction rates. He defended this view connecting Newtonian mechanics to chemistry and wrote the first text on thermochemistry. In 1878 he examined the dissociation reaction of N2O4 ⇌ NO2 to confirm the law of mass action. He also worked on the chlorination of butyric acid, and the esters of benzoic acid. He worked on chemical reaction kinetics and equilibria in his early career but was later involved in teaching organic chemistry. After becoming a professor he became more involved in administration and politics and retired in 1913.

Indore-Dewas-Ujjain section. The Indore-Dewas-Ujjain section of the Western Railway Zone is a partially operational public transit system in the state of Madhya Pradesh. It connects Indore Jn with Ujjain Jn on Ujjain-Bhopal section and  Dewas Jn on Dewas-Maksi section. It is currently operational as a single-track electrified railway line, and is undergoing doubling.

The tentative time of completion of the project is slated to be March 2023. The work is being done by Ratlam railway division of Western Railways.

History 
The track was part of the erstwhile Scindia-Neemuch railway, a branch line from Indore to Ujjain was made operational in the period 1879-1880 during the British Rule.

Current status
The doubling work in the stretch of railways from Ujjain Jn via Karchha, Dewas Jn, Barlai has been completed and is in operation since Late February 2023.

Boston Bridge Works. Boston Bridge Works (also known as Boston Bridge Works, Inc.) was an engineering firm, building bridges throughout New England, during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Operating out of Boston, they specialized in the drafting, design and implementation of both road and railway truss bridges, a common bridge style of that period.

History
The establishment of Boston Bridge Works was in the year 1876 by David H. Andrews, building notable bridges, such as the 1892 Harvard Bridge between Cambridge and Boston.  The company also constructed bridges for many New England railways such as the Boston and Maine Railroad and Boston and Providence Railroad.

Employees of the company were engineers and contractors for steel bridges, buildings, roofs, and railway turntables. The general offices, for most of their operating years, were at 47 Winter Street, Boston, with a plant in East Cambridge.

In August of 1909 a lawsuit was brought to the Massachusetts Superior Court claiming Boston Bridge Works and the New England Structural Company of wrongdoing in a civil suit. The suit alleged the two companies were in a collusive bidding war. The city of Boston claimed that the two companies had a monopoly in the area. Bids for the Broadway bridge consisted of  by the New England Structural Company and  by Boston Bridge Works. The contract was awarded to Boston Bridge Works but due to losing the lawsuit, they had to pay back   to the city of Boston.

After both a fire at their Cambridge plant, and declining contracts during the Great Depression, Boston Bridge Works went out of business in 1938.

Dacia Manifesto. The Dacia Manifesto is an all-wheel drive electric buggy concept with high ground clearance, officially presented by Dacia on September 16, 2022.

Before that, the concept was briefly shown on September 14, 2022 in a teaser published by Dacia Romania on their Facebook page. It was also present at the 2022 Paris Motor Show alongside the rest of the refreshed range.

Overview
The model bears the brand's new emblem, which is here illuminated. The body is made from a recycled plastic called Starkle and has no doors, side windows or windshield. The vehicle, including the interior, are 100% waterproof. The concept will not become a production model and, as the representatives of the company say, it is a "laboratory for the implementation of the newest ideas".

Six Ideas that Shaped Physics. Six Ideas that Shaped Physics is a textbook in calculus based physics, written by Thomas A. Moore based on his introductory course in college physics at Pomona College. It covers special relativity, quantum mechanics, and thermodynamics. The impetus for the project to author the book came from the 1987-1996 Introductory University Physics Project (IUPP), which found that most college texts neglected to teach topics in 20th century physics.

Contents 
The books opens with 20th century physics, starting with the conservation laws implied by Noether's theorem. It then proceeds to present Newtonian mechanics and the laws of motion as a consequence of underlying physical symmetry, reversing the chronological order in which the study of physics developed as a scientific discipline. The courses include Unit C: Conservation Laws Constrain Interactions (14 chapters), Unit N: The Laws of Physics are Universal (12 chapters), Unit R: The Laws of Physics are Frame-Independent (9 chapters), Unit E:  Electric and Magnetic Fields are Unified (20 chapters), Unit Q:  Particles Behave Like Waves (15 chapters), and Unit T:  Some Processes are Irreversible (11 chapters).

Editions 
First published in 1998, it has been widely adopted and is now in the Fourth edition.

Robotics in Ethiopia. Robotics is a recent developing technology in Ethiopia and many high tech enterprises are emerging in Ethiopia, implementing artificial intelligence to erase manufacturing jobs.

Overview
Ethiopia has developing economy, having attracting firms due to availability of low-paid workforce. Manufacturing become the primary source benefitting the economy of Ethiopia. When the implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) to Ethiopian economy and workforce, it questioned the threat is real. AI and robotics founded useful to erase manufacturing jobs, in Ethiopia or elsewhere in the world.

At the age of 19, Betelhem Dessie is the youngest pioneer in Ethiopia's tech scene, sometimes referred to as "Sheba Valley".  She found iCog, a nationwide programs laboratory based on AI that was responsible for developing Sophia the robot in 2018.

In July 2018, Sophia arrived in Ethiopia without some parts assembled, and exhibited at Information & Communication Technology International Expo, in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Visitors, including various dignitaries, were excited when meeting the robot as she communicated with expo guests and expressed a wide range of facial expressions. The more usual diplomatic encounters, she met with Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed on 2 July. The chief of staff of Prime Minister Office shared the photo online, who gained global attention for using facial and speech recognition to help engage in conversation. She was partly assembled in Ethiopia; with a client base spanned places the US, Canada, Hong Kong and China, iCog Labs was showing its tech scene. The company collaborated with the Ethiopian government on some hardware and software projects.

On 4 October 2022, a new science museum named Ethiopia Museum of Art and Science was inaugurated by Abiy Ahmed organized by the Ethiopian Artificial Intelligence Institute and held PanAfricon Artificial Intelligence. Abiy highlighted the importance of AI to transform the country into digitalization anchored in Digital Ethiopia 2025. The museum was opened with motto "Empowering Africa Through AI".
