Media education and the formation of the legal culture of society

The development of legal culture and a culture of human rights in the modern world through media technologies, is acquiring special significance in connection with the processes of globalization and the spread of media in recent decades. The purpose of the article is to study the prospects for the use of media education in the formation of the legal social culture and a culture of human rights. © 2020 LLC Ecological Help.

Microspot x-ray focusing using a short focal-length compound refractive lenses

We have fabricated and tested short focal-length compound refractive lenses (CRLs) composed of microbubbles embedded in epoxy encased in glass capillaries. The interface between the bubbles formed 90 to 350 spherical biconcave microlenses reducing the overall focal length inversely by the number of lenses or bubbles. When compared with CRLs manufactured using other methods, the microbubble lenses have shorter focal lengths with higher transmissions and larger gains for moderate energy x rays (e.g., 7–20 keV). We used beamline 2–3 at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory and beamline 5BM-D-DND at the Advanced Photon Source to measure focal lengths between 100–250 mm with lens apertures varying between 97 and 321 mm. Transmission profiles were measured giving, for example, a peak transmission of 46% for a 240 mm focal length CRL at 20 keV. The focal-spot sizes were also measured yielding, for example, a vertical spot size of 1.2 mm resulting from an approximate 20-fold demagnification of the APS 23 mm source size. The measured gains in intensity over that of unfocused beam were between 9 and 26

История философии как основание советского канона: первый лекционный курс по диалектическому материализму в Беларуси в 1920-х гг. / А. Ю. Дудчик

The research reconstructs structure, concepts and argumentation of the first Soviet course in dialectical materialism taught and published in the 1920s in Minsk by professor S. Y. Wolfson. The analysis explicates that the course is rather heterogeneous and combines elements of different philosophical, scientific, ideological discourses. The importance of the parts in history of philosophy for the develiopment of early Soviet philosophical canon is proved.Реконструируется структура, понятийный аппарат и аргументация первого советского учебного курса по диалектическому материализму, опубликованного в 1920-х гг. в Минске профессором С. Я. Вольфсоном. Показана гетерогенность содержания курса, сочетающего в себе элементы различных философских, научных и идеологических дискурсов. Обоснована значимость историко-философской части для формирования раннесоветского философского канона

Synthesis of bi1–xprxfe1–xсоxo3 solid solutions by solid-state reactions method using bifeo3 and рrсоо3 precursors

Solid solutions of BiFeO3– PrCoO3system were synthesized by means of the solid-state reactions method using bismuth ferrite, BiFeO3and praseodymium cobaltite, PrCoO3 precursors. The temperature-time synthesis regimes of the precursors and the solid solutions were selected. The crystal lattices parameters of the solid solutions of Bi1–xPrxFe1–xСоxО3composition (x= 0, 0.2, 0.5, 1) were determined. The possible mechanisms of formation of the solid solutions from the precursors were proposed

Development Of Molecular Markers In Redbay

Woody plant redbay (Persea borbonia) is a native species in South Carolina whose fine-grained wood is industrially valuable and whose fruits are a valuable food source for animals. However, laurel wilt disease has caused high levels of redbay death, threatening the sustainability of this economically and ecologically important woody plant species. Planting resistant clones of trees is the most promising approach to combat the disease. Large-scale development of molecular markers is imperative in molecular breeding for crop improvement. This project aimed to initiate a small-scale analysis of approximately 200 markers obtained from a shallow genome sequencing project of redbay. The markers that were being used targeted microsatellites, small tandem repeats of DNA that are highly mutable. Of the 213 markers being tested, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification success rate was 94% among the 8 individuals that were used. A total of 160 markers had amplicons that were at least 100 base pairs in length. When fully characterized, these markers will be valuable in linkage map construction, molecular characterization of germplasm collections, and analysis of genetic diversity in redbay

High resolution x-ray microscope

The authors present x-ray images of grid meshes and biological material obtained using a microspot x-ray tube with a multilayer optic and a 92-element parabolic compound refractive lens CRL made of a plastic containing only hydrogen and carbon. Images obtained using this apparatus are compared with those using an area source with a spherical lens and a spherical lens with multilayer condenser. The authors found the best image quality using the multilayer condenser with a parabolic lens, compared to images with a spherical lens and without the multilayer optics. The resolution was measured using a 155-element parabolic CRL and a multilayer condenser with the microspot tube. The experiment demonstrates about 1.1 m resolution
