  • In 1909, Theodor Wulf developed an electrometer, a device to measure the rate of ion production inside a hermetically sealed container, and used it to show higher levels of radiation at the top of the Eiffel Tower than at its base. (wikipedia.org)
  • In addition to these results, the greatest novelty in this field has been so far the discovery of self-similarity and power laws in the data, following the black hole formation from 1.9 second to 3.9 seconds, see the accompanying article [2], leading to evidence of quantized versus continuous emission in the GeV radiation, see the accompanying article [3].
