ideas for the invention
What are you talking about? - Archimedes and latest technology invention in the same breath? For those not in the know - Archimedes was the most famous of the ancient Greek mathematician. He was the one who ran naked through the streets screaming "Eureka" (I have found it) when he solved a very important problem is sitting in his bath.

The latest invention is the technology - which, most probably the most modern and with it a new shape. Archimedes had scribed some of his theories on goat parchment somewhere between 287-212 BC Amazingly, this parchment lives - and in the Middle Ages a monk scraped the papyrus and wrote on Archimedes' writings - (this was probably the best thing to happen -- lived because the scriptures (covered), as a Christian prayer book - and not to the destruction of anti-science thinkers of the Dark Ages and beyond).

Without the whole story - the manuscript has to this day - where it was purchased at auction for about 2 million U.S. dollars, and then very graciously to classics and old book restorers. It was noted that the prayer book was written on some other writing.

Here is the latest technological invention is in. The experts were having trouble reading the underlying script, naturally. A physicist, that with the Radiation Laboratory at Stanford Synchotron - ie, the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center - just happened to see a few details about the Archimedes Project, at a conference.

This physicist studies spinach! His latest invention of technology studies to determine how iron and other elements in spinach. He - through the info he - found that the ink of Archimedes would have iron as the base.

The next step was to deal with the classics and restorers of the manuscript and recommend the use of his instruments (the Stanford accelerator) to the book, like his spinach - and the iron content of the color should be (not even by the overwriting).

After more than four years of preparation - the use of these state of the art invention was. The scanning of the document is being done as we speak [beginning August 4, 2006]. The results are quite surprising - and are available online with a webcam.

This is one of the first cases in which classic and language scholars and physicists (nuclear and others) have worked together on a project like this. The concept is mind-boggling - two such diverse fields together to one of the greatest minds of humanity back to life with his writings - which buried Prayers for a thousand years. This is truly a fascinating use of the latest state of the art.
