Jorge Stolfi, 2011-11-04 Whatever your specialty, this four-dimensional glovebox is a "must" for your lab! Topologists can use this fine piece of equipment to evert spheres and other surfaces, build Klein bottles and projective planes without inconvenient self-intersections or pinch points, and untangle even the most complicated knots. Geometers need it to check solids for Euclidean congruence, as well as to convert right-handed to left-handed reference frames without running into potentially dangerous null determinants. Physicists may use it to convert elementary particles and in symmetry-preservation experiments. Chemists will find it is by far the most efficient way to synthesize enantiomers of common organic compounds, such as L-glucose and left-handed DNA. In the workshop, this handy tool is the easiest way to remove and install inaccessible parts, and to inspect sealed equipment non-destructively. It can be used industrially for the the manufacture mirror-imaged articles of all sorts, such as left-handed screws and nuts, glove and shoe molds, and counterclockwise clocks. The possibilities are endless; it is guaranteed to inspire out-of-the-box thinking by your staff and students! Box and door in clear high-strength 5mm thick acrylic with heat-welded joints. Gloves in 1mm-thick tan nitrile rubber with replaceable cotton lining. Gloves and door fittings of surgical stainless steel with gas-tight silicone rubber seals.
