The syndrome is associated with intellectual disability, low muscle tone (hypotonia), characteristic facial features, constipation, Hirschsprung disease (an intestinal condition), epilepsy, short stature, small head (microcephalus) as well as malformations of the heart, brain, genitals, urinary tract and eyes.
An electromagnetic pulse (EMP) is an intense burst of electromagnetic (EM) energy caused by an abrupt, rapid acceleration of charged particles, usually electron s. An EMP can contain energy components over a large part of the EM spectrum , from very-low-frequency ( VLF ) radio to ultraviolet ( UV ) wavelength s. A lightning strike produces a localized EMP that gives rise to large electrical current s in nearby wires.
Then it was the acronym EMP, then Experience Music Project and Science Fiction Museum and Hall of Fame (âEMPSFMâ for short-ish), then EMP Museum. Now the institution founded by former Microsoft billionaire Paul Allen in 2000 and designed by Frank Gehry is becoming the Museum of Pop Culture, or MoPOP.
