Selenium was originally developed by Jason Huggins in 2004 as an internal tool at ThoughtWorks. [5] Huggins was later joined by other programmers and testers at ThoughtWorks, before Paul Hammant joined the team and steered the development of the second mode of operation that would later become "Selenium Remote Control" (RC).
An 8-plate 160 V 450 mA Federal brand selenium rectifier. A selenium rectifier is a type of metal rectifier, invented in 1933. [1] They were used in power supplies for electronic equipment and in high-current battery-charger applications until they were superseded by silicon diode rectifiers in the late 1960s.
Selenium is found in metal sulfide ores, where it substitutes for sulfur. Commercially, selenium is produced as a byproduct in the refining of these ores. Minerals that are pure selenide or selenate compounds are rare. The chief commercial uses for selenium today are glassmaking and pigments. Selenium is a semiconductor and is used in photocells.
The isotope selenium-75 has radiopharmaceutical uses. For example, it is used in high-dose-rate endorectal brachytherapy, as an alternative to iridium-192. [8]In paleobiogeochemistry, the ratio in amount of selenium-82 to selenium-76 (i.e, the value of δ 82/76 Se) can be used to track down the redox conditions on Earth during the Neoproterozoic era in order to gain a deeper understanding of ...
How do animals obtain water in the winter when water sources are frozen. Some hibernate; that's all I know. Melchoir 01:09, 1 May 2006 (UTC) [].
