| Sumario: | The article discusses two separate topics: the discovery of atoms being diffracted through a crystal grating, a feat previously thought impossible, and the archaeological findings of fox and wildcat bones in settlements in Western Galilee, Israel, suggesting that these animals were consumed as food staples 10,000 years ago. The diffraction of helium and hydrogen atoms through a graphene sheet was achieved by Christian Brand and his team, challenging previous assumptions about the limitations of diffraction patterns. The consumption of foxes and wildcats by hunter-gatherers transitioning to sedentary life sheds light on their dietary practices and resource utilization during the Neolithic revolution in the Levant region. |
