disappearance – The star architect of the 1980s, often misunderstood as a pioneer of postmodernism, this Catalan left an enormous disparate work, much crazier in his personal projects than in his public commissions. Place de la Catalunya in Paris, that’s it, with its stark architecture, flawless city flavour painted like a sci-fi comic, and dull concrete that bets on purity that better suits the sun. Ricardo Bofill, a former student of the Lycée Francais in Barcelona and hence of complete mastery of the language, has left his mark behind the Montparnasse Tower, with this ambitious, disturbing, somewhat outdated complex, equipped…

The imposition of the vaccine passport in supermarkets from January 24 has alarmed booksellers. • Read also: Supermarket vaccination duty: ‘A cannon to kill a fly’ Renault Braille leaders said they resented Thursday’s action by Quebec Premier Francois Legault, seeing it as unfair and punishing Quebecers. The government has misjudged the effects of this policy. “It prefers small bookshops, whose commercial offer is restricted and limited,” said Blaise Renault, president of the Renault Brae Group. “We have no information on the duration of this measure. It is therefore impossible to assess the extent of the negative impacts on the audience…

(Washington) The cause of multiple sclerosis is likely to be the Epstein-Barr virus, according to a new study by US researchers, who for the first time have identified a person responsible for this autoimmune disease. Posted at 6:15pm This discovery raises hope that a future treatment can be developed, making it possible to treat this disease that affects approximately 2.8 million people in the world. About 95% of adults are infected with the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), which can also cause other diseases, such as mononucleosis. The study, published this week in the prestigious journal Science, explains that this virus is…

Metal superconducting at high temperaturesphenomenon electrical connection In metallurgy it has been well known to physicists for many years. Temperature is also known to affect metals in several ways. For example, an increase in temperature increases the electrical resistance of a metal and a decrease in temperature reduces it. This is because when the temperature rises, the electrons have more kinetic energy and therefore move faster and more randomly. This is the phenomenon of resistance.An increase in temperature in ferromagnetic metals such as iron, cobalt, and nickel reduces the magnetization of these metals. If the temperature exceeds a certain limit,…

However, INSPQ notes that monitoring in wastewater is still in its infancy and that more studies and trials are needed. (Photo: The Canadian Press) Quebec scientists argue that monitoring COVID-19 in wastewater may be of public health benefit for detecting and explaining the disease’s circulation in the population. In a document sent on Wednesday, the National Institute of Public Health of Quebec (INSPQ) wrote that wastewater monitoring appears to be a more useful monitoring tool to serve as an early warning when there is a rapid increase in cases, particularly when the severity of clinical examination is reduced, as It…
