Article continues below advertisement ↴ In Mark Buchanan's latest book, God Walk: Moving at the Speed of Your Soul, he explores one of the oldest spiritual practices of our faith, walking.    "I walk a lot. None of it is heroic. I've never done a great pilgrimage or anything. But I became very interested in what was happening in us when we walk," explained Mark Buchanan. "So spiritually I'm interested in that, but also the physiology of it, how relationships can go to a new level when we walk with somebody, our attentiveness to our environment and our ability to really see the creation...

From Too Risky to Last Resort, COVID-Related Organ Transplants Are Surging Mark Buchanan from Roopville, GA didn’t think he was going to survive the COVID-19 pandemic. He and his entire family came down with a nasty bout of the disease, but no one wound up in the hospital except him. He was on a ventilator, sedated for nearly three months before starting extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), a last-resort effort to save patients dying of the disease. “They said that it had ruined my lungs,” Buchanan said. “The vent and the covid ruined ’em completely.” However, his luck chan...

Li Liang is chasing a ghost particle. For almost a decade, the professor of particle physics at Shanghai Jiao Tong University has given up every summer and winter break to join an international search for an unknown particle that will, in the best-case scenario, make Einstein turn in his grave. Li has had to travel frequently between China and the United States. The project, known as the Muon g-2 experiment, is based in the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) near Chicago. China contributed some key components, including crystals in the heart of the detector system. Li’s team w...

Apr 14, 2021 In a year when covid-19 shattered the pleas of so many who prayed for miracles, a Georgia man with two new lungs is among the fortunate. Mark Buchanan, of Roopville, received a double-lung transplant in October, nearly three months after covid left him hospitalized and sedated, first on a ventilator and then on the last-resort treatment known as ECMO. “They said that it had ruined my lungs,” said Buchanan, 53, who was a burly power company lineman when he fell ill. “The vent and the covid ruined ’em completely.” At the time, only a handful of U.S. hospitals were willing...

Optics Bench on a Graphene Flake April 9, 2021• Physics 14, 56 A nanoscale, graphene-based device takes advantage of the wave nature of electrons and provides a level of control that will be useful for quantum computers. M. Jo et al. [1] Making waves with graphene. In this graphene interferometer, electrons flow in three separate current loops (yellow, blue, and red). Current is injected at the upper right corner (not shown), and some fraction of the yellow current tunnels across to join the red current, at the first “beam splitter.” These two currents travel along opposite sid...
