ESD, Europa, Serotype

Entanglement Sudden Death, or ESD, is a phenomena in which entangled particles lose their entangled properties. As the name implies, ESD results in the immediate disconnection between two entangled particles. Prior to the understanding of ESD, entangled particles were thought to lose entangled properties according to exponential decay. External forces, such as interactions with foreign particles, were known to degenerate quantum entanglement, but ESD states that there is instead a sudden collapse of entangled characteristics. This may be analogous to the collapse of the wave function of wave-particle duality due to Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle. Strangely, however, disentangled particles can re-entangle, though the methodology of such an occurrence is yet unknown.

Europa is one of the four famed Galilean satellites orbiting Jupiter. It is thought to have a layer of water under its icy surface that may harbor microbial life. Liquid water is believed to exist on Europa despite its distance from the Sun because of internal gravitational tidal forces. These same forces are responsible for Io's violent volcanism. Basically, the gravitational attraction of Jupiter and Europa cause immense tension on Io. This gravitational "tug-of-war" is less severe on Europa, as Jupiter and Ganymede "pull" just enough so that water is maintained in the liquid state. Strange streaks across Europa is evident. The surprising discovery is that these features are not geological uplifts or valleys. Instead, they are now believed to be rifts that are filled with a relatively recent influx of underground water. This explanation agrees with the discovery that these features are topographically continuous with the surrounding region.

52 Europa, however, is not referring to a satellite, but an asteroid. This C-type asteroid is the seventh largest in the Asteroid Belt by volume, sixth largest by mass. Spectroscopy has shown evidence of olivine and pyroxene in 52 Europa. This composition parallels that of the upper mantle of Earth.

The immune system determines whether a cell is foreign or from the self. When a harmless substance recognized as foreign enters the body, the immune system may overreact in what is known as an allergic reaction. For some people, anaphylaxis may occur because of hypersensitivity to one or more allergens (a specific type of antigen).

A serotype, or serovar, is a classification of a specific group of microorganisms, viruses, or cells based on the type(s) of superficial antigens. There may be hundreds of serotypes within a species. Continue with: HLA, Chromosome 6, Agglutination
