  1. How healthy are Brazil nuts really: The popular seeds, known as “#selenium bombs”, contain also traces of metals like #barium and #radium. Researchers at #HZDR and #VKTA conducted a study on the amounts of these elements that could enter the body during digestion.

  2. Thanks to a link here I tried the #barium #lisp gui library. It's very impressive what it's capable of. It's not even that difficult to put together a code with a nice interface. Really nice job, and the first GUI library for lisp that I've been able to implement things easily.

  3. On 30 June 1808 Humphrey Davy reported to the Royal Society that he had successfully isolated four new metals. One of them was barium. 10 facts about barium:

  8. Apparently there were some strong feelings among at least a few 19th century gentlemen-chemists as to whether "barium" was really deserving of its heaviest-of-all-metals name.

    "Plutonium" was even proposed as an alternative—though, from what I can tell, this effort didn't go anywhere, and "plutonium" (which, honestly, is way cooler than "barium" as names go) remained on the shelf for another century or so.

  9. #Chemists managed to synthesize, study, and improve the properties of layered #barium #stannate. This material can be used in #fuel cells and electrolyzers. They are used to produce #hydrogen or #electrical #energy.

  10. The structure of two-dimensional titanium oxide breaks up at high temperatures by adding #barium; instead of regular #hexagons, rings of four, seven and ten #atoms are created that order periodically.
