Abstract:
A beverage bottle has a container, a beverage accommodated in the container, the beverage including a light-sensitive additive which has an original color and under the action of radiation, changes its original color to a different color, and a device associated with the container and configured to generate a radiation which acts on the additive and to change the original color of the additive and therefore of the beverage to a different color.
Abstract:
A method of calibration of magnification of a microscope with the use of a diffraction grating has the steps of determining a mean period of a diffraction grating by irradiating the diffraction grating with an electromagnetic radiation having a known wavelength and analyzing a resulting diffraction pattern, determining a scatter of individual values of a period of the diffraction grating by multiple measurements of periods of the diffraction grating by a microscope in pixels in one area in a microscope field of view, and calculating a mean value of the period and the scatter based on the measurements, determining a sufficient number of measurements of the period for providing an accepted statistic error of a magnification of the microscope, performing measurements corresponding to the determined acceptable number of measurements, of individual values of the period in pixels in a plurality of portions of the diffraction grating, calculating a general mean value of the period in pixels based on the immediately preceding step, and finally calculating a parameter corresponding to the magnification of the microscope based on the determined mean value of the period of the diffraction grating in the microscope image and the calculating of the general mean value of the period in pixels.
Abstract:
A seismic sensor, has a case, a pre-charged, non-conductive membrane located between two plates that form a capacitor and accommodated inside the case, with one of the plates being immovable relative to the case and the other of the plates being movable relative to the one plate under the action of seismic activity of a medium in which the sensor is located, so that the capacitor produces an electrical signal responsive to the seismic activity, and a mass increasing element associated with the movable plate so as to increase mass of the movable plate and therefore enhance oscillations of the movable plate under the action of the seismic activity.
