Comedone (health) and scientific feasibility (medicine)


Comedone (health)


Commonly know as black heads or white heads. This is where a hair follicle becomes plugged with sebum. When the lipid or sebum is exposed to the environment it is oxidized an turns black (black heads). When the follicle is closed and not exposed to the environment they are cream colored (white heads).





scientific feasibility (medicine)


scientific feasibility
<radiobiology> Fusion will be considered scientifically feasible when (a) experiments are done which reach scientific breakeven-type plasma conditions (see entry on breakeven), and (b) the experimental results suggest that the approach can be scaled up into a power-producing system. Tokamak fusion reactors are closing in on (a), and tokamak researchers think (b) holds as well, so they are designing a power-producing machine (ITER) to demonstrate net energy production from tokamak fusion. Inertial confinement is also approaching this point.
