Abstract

Each winter, when you are cold, everyone in southern Spain thinks the same: If only we could store just a little of the summer heat for the winter! For sure, we would not have to use any radiator.

Fußnoten
1
This is the reason why besieged soldiers would throw boiling oil instead of water on their assaulters. You cannot throw 200 \(^{\circ }\)C water, because it is vapor. But you can do so with liquid oil.
 
2
This relative weakness of gravity is one of the greatest enigmas of contemporary theoretical physics. See the Wikipedia article on the “hierarchy problem”.
 
3
\(7.2\times 10^{-19}=0.0\)...16 zeros...072.
 
4
Closely related to what chemists call “enthalpy of combustion.”
 
5
Something may help though: The efficiency of an electric motor is far better than the one of a gasoline engine (about 90 vs. 25 %; see Wikipedia page on “Internal combustion engine”). The former gets the most out of the batteries energy content, while the latter wastes most of the gasoline energy.

Le Monde, Pierre le Hir, April 12th, 2013.
 
8
Fluorinated gases, used in aerosols, and banned in 1987 because of their effect on this ozone cap. Their usage has steadily decreased since then.
 
9
When drilling for oil, you frequently get gas as well. In case you do not want it, you just burn it. Yes, this is a complete waste of energy [9].
 
11
The word here refers to a chemical mixture, not to a fix.
