Asus Memo Pad 7 HD Features & Its Rumors For COMPUTEX 2013

Just a couple of weeks back, we told you about ASUS's Teaser For Computex 2013. Though not a lot of fanfare, but ASUS did make its mark and created a lot of buzz with the trailer for what to expect from the Taiwanese manufacturer at the showcase event this year. With speculations rife about the new products from ASUS, the rumors have gone far and wide about the launch of a new tablet - always the most sought after gadget in out times. Remember the time in January last year, when ASUS's tablet photos were leaked? So, now the news air is carrying the rumor that ASUS Memo Pad 7 HD could be launched at Computex 2013. 



 If you're done recalling the extremely cheap 7-inch Memo pad that ASUS brought to the market this year, let us take you to the tech specs for its significantly improved version with the Memo Pad 7 HD. Along with a 7" IPS display that features a 1,280 x 720 pixel resolution, the rumors suggest the specs for Memo Pad 7 HD as a Android 4.2 Jelly Bean running tablet with support for Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n connectivity, 1GB RAM, a quad-core 1.6GHz processor, and 16GB of internal memory. If you can't help but make a mental comparison of this tablet to Google’s Nexus 7, which happens to be manufactured by Asus as well, your mind is aligned with ours.




 Banking on the past trend of having leaked images floating across the web, we are looking for some of them for the Memo Pad 7 HD sometime soon. Though the younger brother came in three color variants, Pink, Gray and white, it is being rumored that Memo Pad 7 HD will come in more colors options like black, white, blue, pink and yellow. As we await an official word, a teaser or a tech specs sheet leak, the price of the new tablet is being approximated at around $169 (i.e. Rs. 9,500 in India) for the US market. 



 Amidst all the release of the devices arriving this month, will Asus's tablet leave its footprint? The tech gang across the internet is anxious and full of excitement for some extraordinary gadgets and gizmos that will make way at Computex, how about you?

Linux Mint 15 'Olivia' Features Update With An Ambitious Release

After the November release of Linux Mint 14 - Nadia, here's a significant update from the developers team with Linux Mint 15 'Olivia' featuring Cinnamon 1.8 and MATE 1.6. So, what is new with the features on this new version of Mint? Firstly, there are the two new cool tools added for the first time - 'Software Sources' and 'Driver Manager'. And then if the new UI's intuitiveness doesn't appeal your tastes, there's provision for HTML5, CSS, Javascript, WebGL themed login screen - The MDM has a GTK greeter, a themeable variant of the same and a brand new HTML greeter for new-gen animated and interactive themes. The new Software Sources tool called 'MintSources' built from scratch replaces software-properties-gtk and lets you easily enable or disable optional components and gain access to backports, unstable packages and source code. Featuring a PPA, 3rd party repositories and authentication keys management, MintSources has solutions for the APT problems. Then there's 'MintDrivers' as your Drive Manager, the new software-properties-gtk with a slightly better UI, that can be launched from the menu.



 The most attention-driving feature of this update is the Cinnamon 1.8. With improved File Manager that lets user easily hide the sidebar and switch back and forth between places and treeview, the Cinnamon's latest release has Desklets, much-like KDE's Plasmoids or Android's Widgets - that can be added to your desktop. That's not all - you can have your own screensaver and have to do away with the Gnome Control Center, because you're making way for 'Cinnamon Settings'. And if you care for adding new themes or extensions aka 'spices', that can be done straight away from your desktop.




 Lastly, coming to MATE 1.6 - the project in a significantly smaller in size than before has a lot of new features to show off. There's the MATE File Manager called 'Caja' with improved places section within the sidebar. Other than that the workspace switcher features a new option to wrap around between workspaces with the mouse wheel. There are bug fixes and improvements done to the Software Manager and the Update Manager, mostly related to UI.



 While the latest release is garnering mixed reactions from the keen and curious, a lot of work seems to have gone for building up this upgrade for users. For developers, there's update with settings API for Applets/Desklets, Nemo Actions and the Standalone Looking Glass. What do you feel about this update? If we have some early bird users here, please share your views with us in the comments.

ALMA telescope finds 15 extremely dark galaxies unidentified until now!!!

      With the help of ALMA (Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array), scientists have observed the "Subaru/XMM-Newton Deep Survey Field" in the direction of the constellation Cetus, and succeeded in identifying 15 extremely dark galaxies which had been previously unknown.

 In addition, they also successfully measured the number density of galaxies with 10 times less luminosity than ones previously observed with the conventional millimeter instruments.

 Based on the observations with ALMA telescope, the research team led by Bunyo Hatsukade, a postdoc researcher, and Kouji Ohta, a professor, both from the Graduate School of Science, Kyoto University, have revealed that approximately 80 percent of the unidentifiable millimeter wave signals from the universe are actually emitted from galaxies.

ALMA telescope finds 15 extremely dark galaxies unidentified until now
     
 Their densities well match the prediction by theories of galaxy formation. Therefore, the researchers consider that they managed to capture more like "normal" galaxies, which had been impossible to detect up to now, than extremely bright "submillimeter-luminous galaxies".

 Using ALMA and the Subaru Telescope , the research team is now seeking to uncover the overall picture of galaxy formation and evolution while conducting observations of much darker galaxies.

 Conventional research on distant galaxies has been carried out mainly with visible light and near infrared light. However, it is possible that many galaxies in the universe have been overlooked as much of that radiation is largely absorbed by cosmic dust. That is why millimeter and submillimeter wave observations are important.

ALMA telescope finds 15 extremely dark galaxies unidentified until now
 Stellar light absorbed by dust is reradiated from the dust as millimeter/submillimeter waves. Therefore galaxies, even those that it has not been possible to observe with optical telescopes, can be detected using these wavebands. Furthermore, millimeter/submillimeter waves are suitable for observation of distant galaxies. This is because the more distant the galaxy is, the more luminous part of light we can see due to the shift of wavelength of light by the expansion of the universe.

 This effect is called "negative K correction" and it compensates the source dimming in the distant universe.

 In past observations, gigantic galaxies deeply covered in dust, where several hundreds to thousands of stars are actively forming per year, have been detected with millimeter/submillimeter waves. To capture the overall picture of galaxies in the universe, it is important to observe "general galaxies" which have moderate star-formation activities. However, it has not been possible to detect faint galaxies due to the low sensitivity of existing observation instruments.

 The research team observed a field named "Subaru/XMM-Newtown Deep Survey Field," located in the direction of the constellation Cetus, with the ALMA telescope. As a result, they succeeded in finding 15 extremely dark galaxies that were unidentified until now.

 "It is thanks to the high performance of ALMA, which is proudly said to be the best in the world, that observations like this have been made possible," said Hatsukade.

 With the ALMA observations the team successfully measured the number density of galaxies approximately 10 times darker than the millimeter wave research results up to now.

 The new results agree well with the prediction by the theories of galaxy formation. That means, the galaxies detected in this research are the faint but dust-rich galaxies and they are most likely to be similar in type to normal galaxies not detected before.

 In regards to this, Professor Ohta commented, "This is a big step towards getting the big picture of galaxy evolution as the objects connecting especially bright galaxies in millimeter/submillimeter waves and normal galaxies were detected with ALMA."

 Furthermore, the team concluded that approximately 80 percent of the sources of the cosmic background radiation within the millimeter/submillimeter wavebands are more "normal galaxies" like those detected by ALMA this time.
