Post-Newtonian Theory for Precision Doppler Measurements of Binary Star Orbits

The determination of velocities of stars from precise Doppler measurements is described here using relativistic theory of astronomical reference frames so as to determine the Keplerian and post-Keplerian parameters of binary systems. We apply successive Lorentz transformations and the relativistic equation of light propagation to establish the exact treatment of Doppler effect in binary systems both in special and general relativity theories. As a result, the Doppler shift is a sum of (1) linear in $c^{-1}$ terms, which include the ordinary Doppler effect and its variation due to the secular radial acceleration of the binary with respect to observer; (2) terms proportional to $c^{-2}$, which include the contributions from the quadratic Doppler effect caused by the relative motion of binary star with respect to the Solar system, motion of the particle emitting light and diurnal rotational motion of observer, orbital motion of the star around the binary's barycenter, and orbital motion of the Earth; and (3) terms proportional to $c^{-2}$, which include the contributions from redshifts due to gravitational fields of the star, star's companion, Galaxy, Solar system, and the Earth. After parameterization of the binary's orbit we find that the presence of periodically changing terms in the Doppler schift enables us disentangling different terms and measuring, along with the well known Keplerian parameters of the binary, four additional post-Keplerian parameters, including the inclination angle of the binary's orbit, $i$. We briefly discuss feasibility of practical implementation of these theoretical results, which crucially depends on further progress in the technique of precision Doppler measurements.Comment: Minor changes, 1 Figure included, submitted to Astrophys.

Психологический отбор в игровых видах спорта на примере баскетбола

For the first time, an integrated approach based on the assessment of the technical and tactical skills of basketball players in combination with the psychological selection was used for selectionthe candidates for the Ukrainian cadet team. From the 144 athletes, who participated in the Ukrainian Championship, 36 players were selected based on the level of technical and tactical skills. According to the results of the psychological tests main characteristics of basketball players were defended and recommendations for coaches were given. As a result, 18 players, who were selected using psychological methods, had better technical and tactical mastery. They took part in the training process for preparation for the main competitions of the year (European Championship).Вперше застосовано комплексний підхід на основі оцінки техніко-тактичної мастерності баскетболістів в поєднанні з психологічним відбором кандидатів у кадетську збірну команду України для проведення навчально-тренувальних зборів. Зі 144 спортсменів, які брали участь у чемпіонаті України, відібрано 36 гравців по результатам визначення рівня техніко-тактичної майстерності. За підсумками проведених досліджень по вивченню психологічних характеристик баскетболістів відібрано 18 гравців для проведення навчально-тренувального процесу по підготовці до головних змагань року (чемпіонату Європи).Впервые был применен комплексный подход на основе оценки технико-тактического мастерства баскетболистов в сочетании с психологическим отбором кандидатов в кадетскую сборную Украины для проведения учебно-тренировочных сборов.

Expression of pinopodies in women with endometry hyperplasia without atipy and fertility disorders

Non-atypical endometrial hyperplasia (EH) most often occurs against a background of relative or absolute hyperestrogenism, responds to abnormal hormonal effects. In the reproductive age, the presence of EH can be a factor in the development of fertility disorders. The aim of the study was to learn the expression of pinopodes in ovulatory infertile women with non-atypical EH on the day of the implantation window. Under observation there were 196 women of reproductive age, of which 166 had been treated for infertility, and 30 conditionally gynecologically and somatically healthy, fertile women of the control group. A special examination of women included the determination in the endometrium by scanning electron microscopy of pinopodes’ expression. It was found that in women with non-atypical hyperplasia of the endometrium, areas without pinopodia were recorded in 47.59% of cases, pinopodes of small size - in 79.52% and abundant, small, thick microvilli - in 37.95%; the decrease in the incidence of developed pineapods in comparison with healthy prolific women was 2.72 times, that of pinopodes of large size was 3.39 and the small number of microvilli was 3.64, an increase in the occurrence of pinopodes of medium size 3.65, microvilli in moderate amounts - at 3.74. The authors conclude that the characteristic feature of endometrial pinopodes in EH is the presence of mosaicism of their shape (60.24%), size (64.46%) and the presence of numerous areas of absence of pinopodes (47.59%), which plays a significant role in disorders fertility

Thermonuclear energy is a future source of energy

With the development of nuclear physics, the problem of getting energy from nuclear fusion is topical nowadays. Despite all the difficulties in implementation, thermonuclear energy is a highly efficient source. Therefore, this kind of energy can become a base of economical potential of the country

HYDROLYTIC STABILITY OF IMIDES OF DIFFERENT STRUCTURES

The conversion kinetics of N(o-carboxyphenyl)naphthalimide has been studied in buffer solutions over a pH range 5-12.6 and temperature range 25-70 °C. The naphthalimide hydrolysis is shown to be a reversible reaction. The mechanism of the alkaline hydrolysis of N(o- carboxyphenyl) phthalimide is proposed. The structure dependence of the imide hydrolytic stability is explained on the basis of the suggested mechanism

Physical therapy methods in the treatment and rehabilitation of cancer patients

The results of the effective use of magnetic laser therapy in the treatment and rehabilitation of cancer patients were presented. The effect of magnetic-laser therapy in the treatment of radiation-induced reactions in the patients with head and neck cancer and in the patients with breast cancer was analyzed. High efficiency of lymphedema and lymphorrhea treatment in the postoperative period in the patients with breast cancer was proved. The results of rehabilitation of the patients with gastric cancer after surgical treatment were presented. These data indicate a high effectiveness of different physical methods of treatment and rehabilitation of cancer patients
