Morphologic and optical characterization of ZnO:Co thin films grown by PLD
The morphological properties of the surface and optical characteristics of
nanocomposite ZnO:Co structures grown on substrates of monocrystalline silicon and
sapphire by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method have been studied. The influence of
thermal annealing on formation of characteristically developed surface of films has been
analyzed. The experimental transmission and reflectance spectra in the visible region
have been measured. In the framework of the dielectric function, the optical constants n
and k and dispersion parameters of oscillators that provide the best fit with experimental
data have been obtained. From the infrared reflectance spectra of ZnO:Co structures, the
frequency positions of Е₁(LO) and Е₁(ТО) optical phonons have been determined. It
gives a possibility to suppose that the obtained films possess the wurtzite structure
High statistic measurement of the K- -> pi0 e- nu decay form-factors
The decay K- -> pi0 e- nu is studied using in-flight decays detected with the
ISTRA+ spectrometer. About 920K events are collected for the analysis. The
lambda+ slope parameter of the decay form-factor f+(t) in the linear
approximation (average slope) is measured: lambda+(lin)= 0.02774 +-
0.00047(stat) +- 0.00032(syst). The quadratic contribution to the form-factor
was estimated to be lambda'+ = 0.00084 +- 0.00027(stat) +- 0.00031(syst). The
linear slope, which has a meaning of df+(t)/dt|_{t=0} for this fit, is lambda+
= 0.02324 +- 0.00152(stat) +- 0.00032(syst). The limits on possible tensor and
scalar couplings are derived: f_{T}/f_{+}(0)=-0.012 +- 0.021(stat) +-
0.011$(syst), f_{S}/f_{+}(0)=-0.0037^{+0.0066}_{-0.0056}(stat) +- 0.0041(syst).Comment: 11 pages, 8 figures. Accepted by Phys.Lett.
Special traits of the millimeter wave relativistic magnetron
A 8 mm band relativistic magnetron is investigated experimentally and by means of numerical simulation. The physical effects are analyzed which influence negatively the r.f. generation. The processes capable of reducing effectiveness of the generation and duration of the generated pulse include forward and backward axial flows of electrons, and intense electric fields – the generated microwaves and the fields owing to the space charge.Экспериментально и методами численного моделирования проведено исследование релятивистского магнетрона 8-миллиметрового диапазона и анализ факторов, оказывающих негативное действие на генерацию.

High statistic study of the K- -> pi0 mu- nu decay
The decay K- -> pi0 mu- nu has been studied using in-flight decays detected
with the "ISTRA+" spectrometer. About 540K events were collected for the
analysis. The lambda+ and lambda0 slope parameters of the decay form-factors
f+(t), f0(t) have been measured : lambda+ = 0.0277+-0.0013 (stat)+-0.0009

d(lambda0)/d(lambda+)=-0.348. The limits on the possible tensor and scalar
couplings have been derived: fT/f+(0)=-0.0007 +- 0.0071, fS/f+(0)=0.0017 +-
0.0014. No visible non-linearity in the form-factors have been observed.Comment: 11 pages, 8 EPS figures, accepted by Physics Letters
High statistics study of the K- -> pi0 e- nu decay
The decay K- -> pi0 e- nu has been studied using in-flight decays detected
with the "ISTRA+" spectrometer working at the 25 GeV negative secondary beam of
the U-70 PS. About 550K events were used for the analysis. The lambda+

Antimatter Regions in the Early Universe and Big Bang Nucleosynthesis
We have studied big bang nucleosynthesis in the presence of regions of
antimatter. Depending on the distance scale of the antimatter region, and thus
the epoch of their annihilation, the amount of antimatter in the early universe
is constrained by the observed abundances. Small regions, which annihilate
after weak freezeout but before nucleosynthesis, lead to a reduction in the 4He
yield, because of neutron annihilation. Large regions, which annihilate after
nucleosynthesis, lead to an increased 3He yield. Deuterium production is also
affected but not as much. The three most important production mechanisms of 3He
are 1) photodisintegration of 4He by the annihilation radiation, 2) pbar-4He
annihilation, and 3) nbar-4He annihilation by "secondary" antineutrons produced
in anti-4He annihilation. Although pbar-4He annihilation produces more 3He than
the secondary nbar-4He annihilation, the products of the latter survive later
annihilation much better, since they are distributed further away from the
annihilation zone.Comment: 15 pages, 9 figures. Minor changes to match the PRD versio
