Quantum technology is based on multiple research fields that apply the properties of quantum mechanics. There is a vast literature, however, new directions of technologies in quantum science that have a high potential of development are hardly known. This study confronts these problems here by...

The pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is rapidly spreading all over the world, generating a high number of total deaths. One of the current questions is: how atmospheric factor of wind, in the presence of high levels of air pollution, affects the diffusion of COVID-19? This study...

The definition and explanation of concepts in science are a vital scientific activity because a scientific field can develop only on the base of new comprehensive concepts and categories of concepts and their applications that enlarge the domain of scientific analyses. The conception technology...

A simple model of the development of technology is presented. This model, in a broad analogy with evolutionary ecology of parasites, within a theoretical framework of Generalized Darwinism, can explain vital characteristics of technological advances and technological evolution. In particular,...

The goal of this study is a technology analysis of a revolution for the management of valvular heart diseases given by new technological system based on transcatheter artificial aortic valve, a delivery catheter and a loading system for the treatment of aortic stenosis (a narrowing of the aortic...

Since 2021, vaccinations for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) are more and more a health policy to cope with on-going pandemic crisis. Is this policy response enough to stop the diffusion of novel coronavirus and reduce the negative impact in society? The goal of this study here is to...

The goal of this study is to analyze the relation between funded and unfunded papers, and citations in different scientific fields to explain causes of scientific development. Findings here reveal general properties of science dynamics and diffusion : a) Funded articles in journals receive...
