Theoretical and Experimental Studies of XUV Multielectron (Auto-)Ionization Dynamics in Helium and Molecular Hydrogen
This work consists of two parts: theoretical studies of laser-intensity dependent ionization processes in the helium atom and experimental attosecond transient-absorption spectroscopy studies of the (auto-)ionization dynamics of the Qn resonances of molecular hydrogen. In an experiment, motivating the simulations of ionization processes in helium, abrupt ionization of doubly excited states above a certain critical NIR-laser intensity was observed. Numerically solving the quantum-mechanical one-dimensional time-dependent Schrödinger equation for two electrons, the time-dependent population of relevant atomic states during the laser-pulse interaction is directly accessed. With respect to the theoretical results, an ionization mechanism for the doubly excited states is suggested, where non-sequential double ionization, arising due to electron– electron interaction, plays an important role. The investigations of the (auto-)ionization processes of doubly excited states in the hydrogen molecule concentrated on measuring timeand energy-dependent XUV absorption signals to separate the autoionization effects from the overall continuum absorption of H2. First results of (auto-)ionization effects in the hydrogen molecule were obtained in a technically challenging absorption spectroscopy study

Government ownership and the cost of debt : evidence from government investments in publicly traded firms
Contrary to public perceptions and despite the worldwide success of state
privatizations, over the past decade governments have acquired more assets
through stock purchases (US 765 billion). In fact, governments and stateowned
entities have been such active stock-market investors that they now own
approximately one-fifth of global stock-market capitalization
PANDEMIC CRISIS AND CURRENCY BOARD IN BULGARIA
The pandemic crisis, started as a health crisis and transformed to the economic crisis, had its negative effects not only on the real economy, but also on the financial sector all over the world. The origin of the crisis is different compared to the global financial crisis, but it affected on the behavior of the financial market participants and financial system functioning.Проблеми та перспективи розвитку фінансової системи в сучасних умовах : збірник матеріалів ІІІ Міжнародної науково-практичної інтернет-конференції (м.

Influence of exogenous urea on photosynthetic pigments, 14CO2 uptake, and urease activity in Elodea densa-environmental implications
This paper analyzes the effect of exogenous urea in increased concentration gradient (0, 100, 500 and 1,000 mg L-1) on photosynthetic pigments (measured spectrophotometrically), uptake of 14CO2 (using radioisotope), and urease activity (by measuring ammonia with Nessler's reagent) in leaves of Elodea densa Planch. We have observed that low concentration of urea (100 mg L-1) stimulates the accumulation of photosynthetic pigments and intensifies photosynthesis in E. densa, whereas high concentration (1,000 mg L-1) suppresses these processes. Urease activity increased by approximately 2.7 and 8 fold when exogenous urea concentrations were 100 and 500 mg L-1, respectively. However, exogenous urea in high concentration (1,000 mg L-1) decreased urease activity by 1.5 fold compared to the control. The necessity of mitigating urea and other nitrogen-containing compounds (NH3 from urea) in water bodies has been discussed with emphasis on the potential for phytoremediation of urea using common water weed viz.

Effect of nitrogenous bases on the thermal stability of jet fuels
Fuels from naphthenic petroleums were evaluated, and it was found that they had more N bases than those paraffinic ones (0.00024 and 0.000009% N, respectively). The removal of the N bases improved significantly the thermal stability and reduced the residue formation during oxidation of the fuel. The improvement depended on both content and composition of the bases. Thus, fuels with similar content of N bases (0.00058% N) and thermal stability had oxidation residues of 17.5 and 5.6 and sol. gum of 13 and 1.5 mg/100 ml, before and after removing the N bases, respectively
