Microwave properties of Nb/PdNi/Nb trilayers. Observation of flux flow in excess of Bardeen-Stephen theory

We combine wideband (1-20 GHz) Corbino disk and dielectric resonator (8.2 GHz) techniques to study the microwave properties in Nb/PdNi/Nb trilayers, grown by UHV dc magnetron sputtering, composed by Nb layers of nominal thickness $d_S$=15 nm, and a ferromagnetic PdNi layer of thickness $d_F$= 1, 2, 8 and 9 nm. We focus on the vortex state. Magnetic fields up to $H_{c2}$ were applied. The microwave resistivity at fixed $H/H_{c2}$ increases with $d_F$, eventually exceeding the Bardeen Stephen flux flow value.Comment: 6 pages.

CINEMA in Linguistic Worldview of Russian North Villagers

Folk ideas about cinematic art and cinematography are studied. The recordings of the speech of the inhabitants of the Vologda Territory, made by the author of the article in the period from 1988 to 2021, as well as citation material recorded in the published issues and card file of the Dictionary of Vologda Dialects, are analyzed. A relatively late entry of cinema into the everyday life of the northern village is established (late 60s — 70s of the XX century). The priority of human biological survival in difficult natural conditions determines the attitude towards cinema as a form of spending free time in accordance with the routine of daily and calendar peasant work. The device of the village society serves as a kind of “filter” for the perception of the plotthematic, character and aesthetic components of cinema: the rural viewer perceives the sphere of cinema as bright and attractive, but nevertheless redundant for village life and unsafe for public morality. Only that which is within the circle of interests of the peasant, that is of value or anti-value for him, is verbalized. The traditional nature of the dialectal picture of the world is manifested, on the one hand, in the desire to enter a new form of “urban culture” into the circle of rural entertainment, and on the other hand, in the use of well-established lexical and phraseological means and genre forms in the practice of discussing the subject, axiological and actional components of the cinema sphere

Transport and Means of Communication in Language Worldview of Vologda Peasant: Traditions and Innovations

The article is devoted to the study of records of dialect speech, verbalizing the ideas of rural residents of the Vologda region about the system of transport and means of communication. The object of analysis is the lexical set of names of vehicles and means of communication, as well as the corpus of texts. Informants differentiate roads in detail from the point of view of the possibilities of their use in summer or winter, for walking, skiing, wheeled, sledge, caterpillar, sled, etc. transportation. Many traditional beliefs and customs of dialect speakers are associated with the road. Informants living near navigable rivers and large lakes perceive movement by water as one of the ordinary components of the transport system, while those living far from water bodies treat water transport with caution and prejudice, emphasizing the danger of the water element. The most vivid impressions of dialect speakers about movement in space are associated with air transport. The narrative of this event is clothed in the genre form of a “story-plate”, which occupies an intermediate position between everyday and folklore non-fairy-tale prose. However, such stories, as a rule, tell about the first or only air flight in the life of the informant

Tale of Verlioka in Speech Culture of Belozerye and in Repertoire of Language Personality

The article is devoted to the study of the speech culture of the European North of Russia. Records of the tale of Verlioka, made in Belozerye, from the words of one informant twenty years apart, are being investigated. The conditions of existence of fairy tales, genre affiliation, plot organization, compositional structure, language specifics are considered. The conditions of fairy tales existence, genre affiliation, plot organization, compositional structure, language specifics are considered. It is shown that this character, who is marginal and has very blurred characteristics in the East Slavic territory (O. A. Cherepanova), is the antagonist of the main character, differs in the abnormality / monostructure of the body structure (the presence of only one eye) and cannibalism. It is noted that with all the textual discrepancies, the plot is built around the destruction and its elimination with the help of the main character’s magic helpers (rope / belt, acorn, wand), which in a collision with the antagonist show their miraculous properties. The author concludes that the linguistic features of the fairy tale records are determined by the territorial specificity of the storyteller’s speech and his desire to entertain the interlocutors (in the first version of the record) or to reflect the memories of his family and his native village as fully as possible (in the second version)

“Be Aware of Dogs!” in Context of Post-Folklore Linguistics

The problem of the analysis of polycode texts of mass communication, the functioning of which is determined by their collective authorship, as well as the active variation of their verbal and non-verbal components, while maintaining the plot-thematic, motive and character characteristics associated with specific genres of folk art, is considered. The relevance of such reflections is due to the fact that in the context of the development of Internet communications, the traditions of folk verbal creativity are gaining new life, including with the support of the technological capabilities of convergent media. The focus of this work is a corpus of texts that implement the motive of the ban on entering a certain territory. The analysis of polycode content in this article is carried out in the context of reflections on post-folklore as a special area of folk art of modern man, the distinctive properties of post-folklore texts and the practices of their linguistic analysis existing in modern science. It is shown that texts that have the characteristic properties of postmodernism culture (secondary, precedent, irony, game mode) and network culture (multimedia, intertextuality and interactivity) can be attributed to the field of network folklore and analyzed as Internet memes that continue the traditions of folk pictures, popular prints and other forms of creative polycode texts of non-author’s communication

Early detection of ocean acidification effects on marine calcification

Ocean acidification is likely to impact calcification rates in many pelagic organisms, which may in turn cause significant changes in marine ecosystem structure. We examine effects of changes in marine CaCO3 production on total alkalinity (TA) in the ocean using the global biogeochemical ocean model HAMOCC. We test a variety of future calcification scenarios because experimental studies with different organisms have revealed a wide range of calcification sensitivities to CaCO3 saturation state. The model integrations start at a preindustrial steady state in the year 1800 and run until the year 2300 forced with anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Calculated trends in TA are evaluated taking into account the natural variability in ocean carbonate chemistry, as derived from repeat hydrographic transects. We conclude that the data currently available does not allow discerning significant trends in TA due to changes in pelagic calcification caused by ocean acidification. Given different calcification scenarios, our model calculations indicate that the TA increase over time will start being detectable by the year 2040, increasing by 5-30 mu mol kg(-1) compared to the present-day values. In a scenario of extreme reductions in calcification, large TA changes relative to preindustrial conditions would have occurred at present, which we consider very unlikely. However, the time interval of reliable TA observations is too short to disregard this scenario. The largest increase in surface ocean TA is predicted for the tropical and subtropical regions. In order to monitor and quantify possible early signs of acidification effects, we suggest to specifically target those regions during future ocean chemistry surveys

Фитопрепараты Пролит и Урисан в лечении больных подагрой

Objective: to study the safety and efficacy of Urisan and Prolit in patients with gout. Subjects and methods. The study enrolled 45 patients who met the Wallace classification criteria for gout, were in the attack-free interval and received no antihyperuricemic therapy. The patients' mean age was 51.2±10.6 years (range 30 to 68 years); the disease duration (median and interquartile range) was 7.0 (6.0; 10.0) years. Intradermal and subcutaneous tophi were present in 33% of the patients. The diagnosis was verified by the detection of sodium monourate crystals in 93%. The patients were divided into 3 groups: 1) those who took Urisan as 2 capsules twice daily; 2) those who received Prolit as 5 capsules thrice daily; 3) those who used Urisan and Prolit in the above doses for a month. Blood biochemical tests for the levels of uric acid (UA), creatinine, urea, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase, general clinical urinolysis, and daily uricosuria analysis were carried out before and after therapy. Prior to and a month following therapy, the patient's status (the presence of arthritides) was assessed and adverse reactions were recorded. Results. The drugs were well tolerated and no adverse reactions occurred in all the three groups. No disease exacerbations were seen during the study. The values of hepatic and renal functions substantially unchanged. Administration of Urisan resulted in a considerable increase in urine pH (p=0.004). Urine pH was also increased, but statistically insignificantly in Group 3 patients (p=0.09) and decreased in Group 2. Blood UA levels became lower in all the groups. Conclusion. Urisan and Prolit have antihyperuricemic, anti-inflammatory, and litholythic effects and may be recommended for combined therapy of gout.Цель исследования - изучить безопасность и эффективность препаратов Урисан и Пролит у больных подагрой. Материал и методы. В исследование включено 45 пациентов, которые удовлетворяли классификационным критериям подагры S.L. Wallace, находились в межприступном периоде и не получали антигиперурикемическую терапию. Средний возраст больных - 51,2±10,6 года (от 30 до 68 лет), продолжительность болезни (медиана и интерквартильный размах) - 7,0 (6,0; 10,0) лет. 33% пациентов имели внутрикожные и подкожные тофусы, у 93% диагноз подтвержден обнаружением кристаллов моноурата натрия. Больные были разделены на 3 группы. Пациенты 1-й группы принимали Урисан по 2 капсулы 2 раза в день, 2-й группы - Пролит по 5 капсул 3 раза в день и 3-й группы - Урисан и Пролит в указанных дозах в течение 1 мес. До и после лечения выполняли биохимическое исследование крови: уровень мочевой кислоты (МК), креатинина, мочевины, АСТ, АЛТ, γ-ГТ, общеклинический анализ мочи и анализ суточной урикозурии. Исходно и через 1 мес лечения оценивали состояние больного (наличие артритов) и регистрировали побочные явления. Результаты исследования. Во всех 3 группах переносимость препаратов была хорошей, побочных эффектов не выявлено. За время исследования не наблюдалось развития обострений заболевания. Показатели функции печени и почек за время лечения существенно не изменились. На фоне приема Урисана наблюдалось значительное увеличение рН мочи (р=0,004). У пациентов 3-й группы рН мочи также увеличился, но статистически незначимо (р=0,09), а у больных 2-й группы - снизился. Уровень МК в крови значительно снизился во всех группах. Выводы. Урисан и Пролит оказывают антигиперурикемическое, противовоспалительное, камнерастворяющее действие и могут быть рекомендованы для комплексной терапии подагр
