ALBERT F

 Hi! The article that I have done here, is about Albert Fert. He is a winner of Nobel prize of physics, and I am going to tell you some imformation about him.

Albert Fert (born 7 March 1938 in Carcassonne, Aude) is a French physics and one of the discoverers of giant magnetoresistance which brought about a breakthrough in gigabyte hard disks. He was awarded the 2007 Nobel Prize in Physics together with Peter Grünberg.

In 1988 Fert discovered the Giant magnetoresistance effect (GMR) in multilayers of iron and chromium which is recognized as the birth of spintronics; He was awarded the 2007 Nobel Prize in Physics together with Peter Grünberg.   

Biography   

Fert graduated in 1962 from the École Normale Supérieure in Paris. He received his master's degree in 1963 at the University of Paris. In 1988 Fert discovered the Giant magnetoresistance effect (GMR) in multilayers of iron and chromium which is recognized as the birth of spintronics. Since 1988, Albert Fert has made contributions to the field of spintronics.



Honors and awards  

American Physical Society International Prize for New Materials (1994) Grand prix de physique Jean Ricard of the French Physical Society (1994) International Union of Pure and Applied Physics Magnetism Award (1994) Hewlett-Packard Europhysics Prize (1997) Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique Gold Medal (2003) Wolf Prize in Physics (2006) Japan Prize (2007) Elected to the French Academy of Sciences in 2004 Nobel Prize in Physics (2007).

 I have chosen Albert Fert, because I think that it is very difficult to discover the Giant Magnetoresistance effect, because you have to know a lot about physycs to discover that.

HORROR STORY!

Hello, this is a horror story that we have done in ICT. We had to put in pears and start doing a story and then the others had to continued.

HALLOWEEN DREAMS



Forty years ago, in a very small town called Tutchirfild, they were celebrating Halloween, and a group of friends met in an abandoned house that was outside the town. It was a dark and a very cold night, and there was a terrible storm, and one of them knocked at the door, and the door was opened alone.

A very old woman appeared and with a nasty smile she offered them sweets. Later, she asked them if they wanted to enter to the house, the boys entered it very happily and they started eating a lot of sweets, chocolate.... But, the thing was that the boys didn’t know what the old woman was hiding.

The group of friends entered the room of the woman and they stayed under the bed. The group was very scared and they were very silent because they thought that there were many ghosts in the house. In a moment, they heard that the door was opening and they thought that one person would kill them.

They saw two filthy feet with very big nails and with a lot of hair. The group started getting scared and they decided to phone their parents. After ten minutes the two feet disappeared but the group didn’t leave the room because they were very scared. One member of the group went to see if the person that entered the room was there. He didn’t see anything and he went to say to the other members.

After they saw that nobody was there they started running to the exit of the house, but they couldn’t find it, they were lost. One member of the group said that they had to investigate the house before they started running again. So they divided the group in three small groups, the first group had to go to the kitchen, another team to the bathrooms, and the third one to the bedrooms.

The first group went to the kitchen and they saw a children, they went to speak with him and they asked what happened in the house, but the children didn’t answer. They asked again but the children was quit, the children tried to speak but when he opened the mouth they saw that he hasn’t tongue. The members of the group were horrified.

So the members of the group started running to escape from the strange children because their were scared and then they met with the second group on the bathroom. At that moment they saw a shadow with a knife in his right hand and then all the members of the group turned around and they noted a strange smell around them.

They tried to scape of the house, they ran with out knowing where was the exit. But they found a door, the freedom was on their hands. Suddenly one of the young friends fell into a precipice. Some minutes later the boy was in the bedroom of his house, sweating, all has been a nightmare.
