Breast cancer is the most frequent type of non-skin cancer and the most frequent cause of cancer death in women worldwide, and it is the second most frequent cause of cancer death in United States women. (See "Clinical features, diagnosis, and staging of newly diagnosed breast cancer", section on 'Introduction' and "Clinical features, diagnosis, and staging of newly diagnosed breast cancer", section on 'Epidemiology' and "Diagnostic evaluation of women with suspected breast cancer", section on 'Introduction'.)

The majority of breast cancers in the United States are diagnosed as a result of an abnormal screening study, although a significant number are first brought to attention by a patient. Findings... Continue reading "Met-low patients" cancer français" »

Linguistics: Understanding Language Structure

Written at on English with a size of 3.95 KB.

What is Linguistics?

A linguist is usually described as a person who is skilled in some way with a given language, including ancient languages. The term can be used to describe a person who specializes in linguistics, which is the study of language, or it can refer to someone who is well-versed in the translation, interpretation, and application of a language. At the same time, this title may be used for someone who is fluent in multiple languages.

In the academic sense, a linguist is a person who engages in and studies linguistics. This is the scientific study of language—both theoretical and practical. Such a person may be studying or professionally practicing either theoretical or applied linguistics.

Examples of theoretical linguistics include... Continue reading "Linguistics: Understanding Language Structure" »

1. Is the DuPont Key Figure System the Only Accepted System With No Disadvantages?

False

While widely recognized, the DuPont system doesn't account for liquidity, a factor often considered more critical than profitability. Focusing solely on profitability as a single objective is a shared limitation of many analytical tools.

2. What's an Advisable Approach to Developing Charts for Reports?

Consider these steps:

  1. Statement: Define the message you want to convey.
  2. Comparison: Determine the basis for comparison (e.g., time periods, categories).
  3. Chart: Select a chart type that best visually represents the data and comparison.

Race, Gender, and Power Dynamics in Colonial America

European Colonization in America

Colonization is the act of dominating or conquering a country or territory. This domination can be political, military, or cultural in nature and can develop violently or peacefully. America, for instance, was colonized by various European countries, including France and England.

The English and French colonized America less for gold and more for reasons such as establishing a new life, distinct from their homeland. Typically, the English settlers stayed along the coast, while the French ventured into the forests to expand their commercial and religious frontiers.

Racism and Segregation in the Narrative

Mainly, it is important to differentiate between racism and segregation. Segregation consists of the separation... Continue reading "Race, Gender, and Power Dynamics in Colonial America" »

Properties of Laser Light: Monochromaticity, Coherence, and More

Classified in Physics

Written at on English with a size of 1.95 KB.

Properties of Laser Light

1. Monochromaticity

Unlike discharge lamps that emit on all atomic transitions, laser emission typically corresponds to a single atomic transition of the gain medium. The spectral line width can be much smaller than the atomic transition's due to the influence of the optical cavity.

2. Coherence

Laser beams exhibit high spatial and temporal coherence.

Spatial coherence describes the regularity of the optical phase across a beam's cross-section.

Temporal coherence refers to the duration over which the beam's phase remains well-defined. The temporal coherence time (tc) is generally the reciprocal of the spectral linewidth (ν). Consequently, the coherence length (lc) is: lc = ctc = c/ν.

3. Directionality

A key characteristic... Continue reading "Properties of Laser Light: Monochromaticity, Coherence, and More" »

Harmonic Oscillator: Definition, Applications, and Quantum Mechanics

Classified in Physics

Written at on English with a size of 2.9 KB.

Harmonic Oscillator

In classical mechanics, a harmonic oscillator (also known as a linear oscillator or simple oscillator) is a physical system bound to a position of stable equilibrium by a restoring force proportional to the displacement from this position. A typical example of a harmonic oscillator is a mass attached to a spring. The restoring force is the elastic force F given by Hooke’s law:

F = −kx,

where x is the displacement and k is the spring constant. The motion of a body of mass m attached to the spring is governed by Newton’s second law:

[m*(d2/dt2)] * x(t) = −kx

whose general solution is:

x(t) = Acos(ωt + φ).

Here, ω = rad(k/m) is the natural oscillating frequency, A is the amplitude of the oscillation, and φ is the phase... Continue reading "Harmonic Oscillator: Definition, Applications, and Quantum Mechanics" »

Motivations of Entrepreneurs: Beyond Money

Classified in Philosophy and ethics

Written at on English with a size of 2.56 KB.

It is claimed that money is the only thing that motivates entrepreneurs

I can clearly say that entrepreneurs have different types of motivations. Some of them are related to the desire to earn money and others with the illusion of turning your dream into reality.

At present, the development of new companies has become very fashionable. With this, many entrepreneurs dream of becoming the next millionaire genius like Mark Zuckerberg. They also dream of traveling by private jet, partying in Las Vegas and having a Ferrari.

Although money is a great motivator and is very necessary to boost entrepreneurs, recent research concludes that people who only seek to earn money have a personality more prone to individualism, lack of willingness to work in teams...

Challenges of International Matrimony

As far as matrimony is concerned, it turns out to be clear that has changed significantly with the passage of time. Nowadays marrying someone from another country is nearly as frequent as marriage between people from the same country. Nevertheless, marrying someone from a different country is still drastically more difficult.


Culture seems to be one of these difficulties, people from different countries might have different ideas of marrying, and some experts claim that it is one of the most popular problems for couples. On the grounds of that, the vast majority of people agree that couples should celebrate the ceremony based on both cultures.


It is a common belief that love conquers all, love should be easy,
