Fouquieria columnaris, the Boojum tree or cirio (Latin American Spanish:) is a tree in the ocotillo family, whose other members include the ocotillos. Some taxonomists place it in the separate genus Idria .
Boojum is a British-owned chain of Mexican fast-food [4] restaurants, founded in the United Kingdom. Founded in 2007 by John and Karen Blisard, they operate 17 outlets throughout the island of Ireland, [5] as well as a "Turbo Boojum" outlet in Dublin. [6] On 10 April 2024, Boojum opened their first store outside of the island of Ireland, in ...
In the physics of superfluidity, a boojum is a geometric pattern on the surface of one of the phases of superfluid helium-3, whose motion can result in the decay of a supercurrent. A boojum can result from a monopole singularity in the bulk of the liquid being drawn to, and then "pinned" on a surface.
Boojum tree in hot June summers Cirio columnaris with human for scale. The Boojum forest is an area in central Baja California, Mexico, near Cataviña known for endemic flora so bizarre and grotesque in appearance that the area was named after mathematician/logician Lewis Carroll's imaginary landscape poem The Hunting of the Snark.
Fouquieria is a genus of 11 species of desert flowering plants, the sole genus in the family Fouquieriaceae.The genus is native to North America and includes the ocotillo (F. splendens) and the Boojum tree or cirio (F. columnaris).
The XSSM-A-5 Boojum, also known by the project number MX-775B, was a supersonic cruise missile developed by the Northrop Corporation for the United States Air Force in the late 1940s. Intended to deliver a nuclear warhead over intercontinental range, the project was determined to be too ambitious given technical difficulties with the SM-62 ...
Fouquieria diguetii, known by the common names Adam's tree,palo Adán, and Baja [California] Tree Ocotillo, is a plant in the family Fouquieriaceae native to the southern half of the Baja California Peninsula, and the coasts of Sonora and Sinaloa.
