Materials Science and Engineering: Goals, Catalysts, Nanostructures
What are the Principal Goals of Materials Science and Engineering?
Materials Science is the scientific field that studies the interrelationship between the structure and the properties of materials. In engineering terms, the goal of this discipline is to design or project the structure of a determined material to get some determined properties basing it on the materials science knowledge.

Exploring the Morpho-Syntactic Plane
We transition from the acoustic level to the morpho-syntactic plane, delving into how meaning is constructed through syntax and why certain sentences possess a more artistic quality than others. This exploration contrasts the logical syntax of standard language with the rhythmical syntax of poetic language.
1. Morpho-Syntactic Plane
Dispositio and Elocutio involve composing the text and structuring its central themes. Morphology categorizes words, influencing the

16th-Century Printing and the Spread of Literature
The 16th century saw a significant shift in the literary landscape due to the advent of printing. This technological advancement facilitated the widespread dissemination of texts, leading to the emergence of two distinct trends in narrative fiction:
Idealist Fiction
Drawing inspiration from medieval and Italian models, idealist fiction presented idyllic worlds and characters far removed from the realities

Star Formation and the Interstellar Medium (ISM)
The Interstellar Medium
The ISM, composed of gas and dust between stars, plays a crucial role in star formation. Dust, constituting about 1% of the ISM, emits light depending on its temperature. This dispersed material, particularly the solid dust grains, blocks visible light, causing interstellar extinction. Larger particles, around 300nm in size, preferentially block shorter wavelengths, leading to the reddening of light. The position of absorption

Ernest Hemingway
Ernest Hemingway’s fiction depicts an absurd, meaningless world. His characters are antisocial and individualistic. They reject conventional society and take refuge in vigorous, risky physical activity. Facing death and danger alone, they feel close to the ultimate truth about existence, which is futility and ultimate absurdity. The world of Hemingway’s fiction is extremely masculine, dominated by men. Women are problematically portrayed, appearing as aggressive and vampiric or else
