Analytically solvable model of a driven system with quenched dichotomous disorder
We perform a time-dependent study of the driven dynamics of overdamped
particles which are placed in a one-dimensional, piecewise linear random
potential. This set-up of spatially quenched disorder then exerts a dichotomous
varying random force on the particles. We derive the path integral
representation of the resulting probability density function for the position
of the particles and transform this quantity of interest into the form of a
Fourier integral. In doing so, the evolution of the probability density can be
investigated analytically for finite times. It is demonstrated that the
probability density contains both a -singular contribution and a
regular part. While the former part plays a dominant role at short times, the
latter rules the behavior at large evolution times. The slow approach of the
probability density to a limiting Gaussian form as time tends to infinity is
elucidated in detail.Comment: 18 pages, 5 figure
Arrival time distribution for a driven system containing quenched dichotomous disorder
We study the arrival time distribution of overdamped particles driven by a
constant force in a piecewise linear random potential which generates the
dichotomous random force. Our approach is based on the path integral
representation of the probability density of the arrival time. We explicitly
calculate the path integral for a special case of dichotomous disorder and use
the corresponding characteristic function to derive prominent properties of the
arrival time probability density. Specifically, we establish the scaling
properties of the central moments, analyze the behavior of the probability
density for short, long, and intermediate distances. In order to quantify the
deviation of the arrival time distribution from a Gaussian shape, we evaluate
the skewness and the kurtosis.Comment: 18 pages, 5 figure
Innovations and support for quality in agriculture : a case study
The aim of the article is to investigate the economic and legal aspects of integrating innovations in agriculture and supporting the quality of agricultural products in the context of modern Russia.
Throughout the process of research, the authors analyzed the directions of agricultural sector development, mechanisms of quality and safety support, as well as customer rights protection.
As a result the authors have agreed on, the need to integrate cluster models in the agricultural sector, notably in the bee-keeping, seed production (including financing of this activity), as well as legislative stimulus to shift towards «green» biotechnology in the domestic agriculture.
Based on the research conducted, the authors have proposed mechanisms to improve the current Russian legislation in the spheres of innovation development and support for quality and safety of agricultural production.peer-reviewe
New approaches to modernization of spatial and sectorial development of Russian and Greek regional economy
The purpose of the article is to develop new highly-effective organizational and managerial approaches to conduct of modernization of spatial and sectorial development of regional economy of Russia and Greece. During conduct of the research, the authors use such scientific methods as systemic structural and comparative analysis. The authors determine the level of differentiation of the level and structure of economic development of regions of Russia and Greece in 2012 through consideration of indicators of GRP per capita of regions and GDP, as well as gross added value for regions and sectors of production.
During the research, the authors come to the conclusion that modern Russia and Greece are peculiar for presence of serious disproportions in the level of economic development of regions, which is a reason for unbalanced development of economic systems of these countries, slowdown of rates of national economic growth, and crisis. This situation is caused by orientation at the use of geographical approach. As alternative, the authors offer three new approaches to modernization of spatial and sectorial development of regional economy of Russia and Greece: cluster, client-oriented, and anti-crisis and substantiate expediency of transition to their application. These approaches allow overcoming the aforementioned drawbacks and ensure well-balanced development of regional economy in the long-term, as well as its high sustainability and quick overcoming of economic crises. For provision of high effectiveness of the process of selecting the optimal approach to modernization of spatial and sectorial development of regional economy by territorial authorities, it is offered to use the corresponding proprietary algorithm of modernization of spatial and sectorial development of regional economy.peer-reviewe

The arions generation by magnetodipole waves of pulsars and magnetars in a constant magnetic field
The influence of the gravitational fields of pulsars and magnetars on the
arion emission during the propagation of magnetodipole waves in a constant
magnetic field has been evaluated.
The solution of the equation was obtained and the flux of arions emitted by
magnetodipole waves during their propagation in a constant magnetic field was
found. It is shown that the amplitude of the born arion wave at a distance from
the source of magnetodipole radiation of a pulsar or magnetar in
the considered case tends to a constant value. The intensity of the arion
emission in the solid angle element and the amount of arion energy
, emitted in all directions per unit time grow quadratically with
increasing distance, traveled by the magnetodipole radiation of a pulsar or
magnetar in a constant magnetic field.
Such growth of the energy of the born arion wave is due to the fact that in
the considered problem constant magnetic field is defined in the whole space.
In reality, the galactic and intergalactic magnetic fields can be represented
in this form only in regions of space of finite dimensions, outside of which
the force lines of their induction vector are curved. Therefore, it is possible
to apply these results only in a region of space for which , where is the coherence length, the distance at which
the force lines of the induction vector can be considered as straight lines. An
estimate for the value of the coupling constant of photons with arions is
obtained
Characterizing Complex Polysera Produced by Antigen-Specific Immunization through the Use of Affinity-Selected Mimotopes
BACKGROUND: Antigen-based (as opposed to whole organism) vaccines are actively being pursued for numerous indications. Even though different formulations may produce similar levels of total antigen-specific antibody, the composition of the antibody response can be quite distinct resulting in different levels of therapeutic activity. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Using plasmid-based immunization against the proto-oncogene HER-2 as a model, we have demonstrated that affinity-selected epitope mimetics (mimotopes) can provide a defined signature of a polyclonal antibody response. Further, using novel computer algorithms that we have developed, these mimotopes can be used to predict epitope targets. CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: By combining our novel strategy with existing methods of epitope prediction based on physical properties of an individual protein, we believe that this method offers a robust method for characterizing the breadth of epitope-specificity within a specific polyserum. This strategy is useful as a tool for monitoring immunity following vaccination and can also be used to define relevant epitopes for the creation of novel vaccines
