The B Neutrino Spectrum
Knowledge of the energy spectrum of B neutrinos is an important
ingredient for interpreting experiments that detect energetic neutrinos from
the Sun. The neutrino spectrum deviates from the allowed approximation because
of the broad alpha-unstable Be final state and recoil order corrections to
the beta decay. We have measured the total energy of the alpha particles
emitted following the beta decay of B. The measured spectrum is
inconsistent with some previous measurements, in particular with a recent
experiment of comparable precision. The beta decay strength function for the
transition from B to the accessible excitation energies in Be is fit to
the alpha energy spectrum using the R-matrix approach. Both the positron and
neutrino energy spectra, corrected for recoil order effects, are constructed
from the strength function. The positron spectrum is in good agreement with a
previous direct measurement. The neutrino spectrum disagrees with previous
experiments, particularly for neutrino energies above 12 MeV.Comment: 15 pages, 13 figures, 4 tables, submitted to Phys. Rev. C, typos

Evaluation of cancer incidence in a certain area is one of the most important components of cancer control. From 1993 to 2012, a 1.4-fold increase in the annual number of new cancer cases among the population of Siberia and the Far East was registered. The age-standardized incidence rates are increasing with aging of the population. For all cancers, cancer incidence is higher in men than in women with the exception of thyroid and skin melanoma cancer incidence. Six types of cancer incidence curves have been identified: 1) reduction; 2) high growth; 3) relatively uniform growth; 4) reduction followed by stabilization; 5) growth followed by stabilization; 6) relatively uniform increase, then a significant increase.ΠΡΠ΅Π½ΠΊΠ° Π·Π°Π±ΠΎΠ»Π΅Π²Π°Π΅ΠΌΠΎΡΡΠΈ Π·Π»ΠΎΠΊΠ°ΡΠ΅ΡΡΠ²Π΅Π½Π½ΡΠΌΠΈ Π½ΠΎΠ²ΠΎΠΎΠ±ΡΠ°Π·ΠΎΠ²Π°Π½ΠΈΡΠΌΠΈ Π½Π° ΠΎΠΏΡΠ΅Π΄Π΅Π»Π΅Π½Π½ΠΎΠΉ ΡΠ΅ΡΡΠΈΡΠΎΡΠΈΠΈ ΡΠ²Π»ΡΠ΅ΡΡΡ ΠΎΠ΄Π½ΠΎΠΉ ΠΈΠ· Π²Π°ΠΆΠ½Π΅ΠΉΡΠΈΡ

Results of epidemiological study on kidney cancer incidence among the population of the Primorsky Krai are presented. Methods of mathematical statistics recommended by the Ministry of Public Health were used. Within the first 5 years of the period 1994 to 2008, thekidney cancer incidence rate increased from 8,3 0/0000 to 12,5 0/0000 in men and from 4,4 0/0000 to 6,6 0/0000 in women, being the 8th most common cancer in men and the 11th most common cancer in women. The highest incidence rate was observed at the age of 55β59 years. The kidney cancer incidence rate in children for the period 1994β2008 was 1,8 0/0000, reaching peak incidence at age 0β4. Kidney cancer is the third most common cancer following hemoblastosis and brain tumors in children of this age group.ΠΡΠ΅Π΄ΡΡΠ°Π²Π»Π΅Π½Ρ ΡΠ΅Π·ΡΠ»ΡΡΠ°ΡΡ ΡΠΏΠΈΠ΄Π΅ΠΌΠΈΠΎΠ»ΠΎΠ³ΠΈΡΠ΅ΡΠΊΠΎΠ³ΠΎ ΠΈΡΡΠ»Π΅Π΄ΠΎΠ²Π°Π½ΠΈΡ Π·Π°Π±ΠΎΠ»Π΅Π²Π°Π΅ΠΌΠΎΡΡΠΈ ΡΠ°ΠΊΠΎΠΌ ΠΏΠΎΡΠΊΠΈ Π½Π°ΡΠ΅Π»Π΅Π½ΠΈΡ ΠΡΠΈΠΌΠΎΡΡΠΊΠΎΠ³ΠΎ ΠΊΡΠ°Ρ Ρ ΡΡΠ΅ΡΠΎΠΌ Π²ΠΎΠ·ΡΠ°ΡΡΠ° ΠΈ ΠΏΠΎΠ»Π°.

A cancer incidence in general and in its separate nosologic forms (stomach cancer, liver cancer, cancer of lung, skin cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, prostate cancer, thyroid gland cancer and hemoblastosis cancer) has been studied in the population of Tomsk and Tomsk region within 1990β2001 taking into account ages and sexes. The dynamics of the cancer incidence in general and in separate forms of malignant neoplasms has been cited and the prognosis of this process up to 2007 has been done. An analysis of the main risk factors has been made.ΠΠ·ΡΡΠ΅Π½Π° ΠΎΠ½ΠΊΠΎΠ»ΠΎΠ³ΠΈΡΠ΅ΡΠΊΠ°Ρ Π·Π°Π±ΠΎΠ»Π΅Π²Π°Π΅ΠΌΠΎΡΡΡ Π² ΡΠ΅Π»ΠΎΠΌ ΠΈ Π΅Π΅ ΠΎΡΠ΄Π΅Π»ΡΠ½ΡΠΌΠΈ Π½ΠΎΠ·ΠΎΠ»ΠΎΠ³ΠΈΡΠ΅ΡΠΊΠΈΠΌΠΈ ΡΠΎΡΠΌΠ°ΠΌΠΈ (ΡΠ°ΠΊ ΠΆΠ΅Π»ΡΠ΄ΠΊΠ°, ΡΠ°ΠΊ ΠΏΠ΅ΡΠ΅Π½ΠΈ, ΡΠ°ΠΊ Π»Π΅Π³ΠΊΠΎΠ³ΠΎ, ΡΠ°ΠΊ ΠΊΠΎΠΆΠΈ, ΡΠ°ΠΊ ΠΌΠΎΠ»ΠΎΡΠ½ΠΎΠΉ ΠΆΠ΅Π»Π΅Π·Ρ, ΡΠ°ΠΊ ΡΠ΅ΠΉΠΊΠΈ ΠΌΠ°ΡΠΊΠΈ, ΡΠ°ΠΊ ΠΏΡΠ΅Π΄ΡΡΠ°ΡΠ΅Π»ΡΠ½ΠΎΠΉ ΠΆΠ΅Π»Π΅Π·Ρ, ΡΠ°ΠΊ ΡΠΈΡΠΎΠ²ΠΈΠ΄Π½ΠΎΠΉ ΠΆΠ΅Π»Π΅Π·Ρ ΠΈ Π³Π΅ΠΌΠΎΠ±Π»Π°ΡΡΠΎΠ·Ρ) Π½Π°ΡΠ΅Π»Π΅Π½ΠΈΡ Π’ΠΎΠΌΡΠΊΠΎΠΉ ΠΎΠ±Π»Π°ΡΡΠΈ ΠΈ Π³.
