倘若有一种仪器能够预知未来,你想知道什么呢?恐怕很多人都想知道自己的死亡时间。近日,英国兰卡斯特大学的物理学教授阿内塔·斯特凡诺夫斯卡和彼得·麦克林托克研发出一种激光检测装置,可以预测人们何时死亡。像手表一样大这种激光检测装置的造价仅为几百英镑,主要利用激光束分析皮下毛细血管内壁的内皮细胞,这种内皮细胞是人体健康的重要指示器。该装置通过对这些细胞的血量进行监测,判断人体的衰老速度是否超过正常水平,从而确定人的健康状况和死亡时间。
If there is an instrument that can predict the future, what do you want to know? I’m afraid many people want to know their own time of death. Recently, Arnetta Stefanowska and Peter McClintock, physics professors at Lancaster University in the UK, developed a laser detection device that can predict when people will die. Like a watch, this laser detector costs as little as a few hundred pounds and uses laser beams to analyze endothelial cells lining the subcutaneous capillaries, an important indicator of human health. By monitoring the blood volume of these cells, the device determines whether the body’s aging rate exceeds the normal level to determine the human health status and the time of death.
