in categoriile: Mathematics,Personalia,Science and sport Spanish researchers have developed a new mathematical model that permits to predict sport injuries from a series of equations. Their work has proved that sport injuries that affect the lower limbs in high-impact sport, such as football, athletics or basketball, can be predicted through the use of equations of logistic regression. The paper has been published in the journal “Apunts. Medicina de L’esport”.

in categoriile: Astronomy,Mathematics,Personalia,Space,Technology On the morning of March 7, NASA will launch the Kepler probe to enter an orbit around the Sun. The mission aims to detect planets the size of the Earth that orbit other stars. The spacecraft is equipped with a telescope that will measure the brightness of 170 000 stars simultaneously and continuously for at least three and a half years. It is expected that the information collected during the mission will lead to a better understanding of the evolution of stars. Huge amountsof data will be analyzed by an international scientific consortium called the Kepler Asteroseismic Science Consortium (KASC). The researchers consists of over 200 researchers from 50 institutions around the world, including the Astronomical Institute of the Romanian Academy.
