Modeling of atmospheric air quality in the Tomsk using WRF/CAMx complex

The results of numerical modeling of meteorological parameters and concentrations of small components of atmospheric air Tomsk city obtained using the Weather Research & Forecasting (WRF) and Comprehensive Air quality Model with eXtensions (CAMx) models are presented. Several periods were selected when increased concentrations of pollutants were observed with the TOR-station of the IAO SB RAS to estimate the level of atmospheric air quality in the city based on numerical modeling. For these periods, the values of the Air Quality Index were calculated using the WRF/CAMx complex with using US Environment Protection Agency (EPA) recommendations. The obtained results of the numerical forecast show the possibility of the formation of a high level of air pollution under certine meteorological conditions in the city

Search for f1(1285)→π+π−π0f_1(1285) \to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0 decay with VES detector

The isospin violating decay $f_1(1285)\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ has been studied at VES facility. This study is based at the statistics acquired in $\pi^- Be$ interactions at 27, 36.6 and 41 GeV/c in diffractive reaction $\pi^- N \to (f_1 \pi^-) N$. The $f_1(1285) \to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ decay is observed. The ratio of decay probabilities $BR(f_1(1285) \to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0)$ to $BR(f_1(1285) \to \eta \pi^+\pi^-) \cdot BR(\eta \to \gamma\gamma)$ is $\sim\:1.4$.Comment: 10 pages, 8 figures, presented at XII Conference on Hadron Spectroscop

The Effect of Tile Light Collection Reduction along Radius on the ATLAS Tile Calorimeter Uniformity

We report on the light collection non uniformity of trapezoidal scintillating tiles along radius and its consequence on the miscalibration of the middle and back longitudinal calorimeter samplings. We discuss the need to apply extra corrections to the cells response after equalization and corrections obtained by the cesium calibration system, in order to bring all three longitudinal samplings to the right electromagnetic scale

The assessment of the atmospheric air quality in Tomsk with the use of a mesoscale photochemical model

The paper presents the results of studying the influence of the development of meteorological situation in clear weather with a weak wind on the level of atmospheric surface air pollution in the city of Tomsk (Russia). Mesoscale meteorological and photochemical models with a new kinetic scheme were applied to the analysis. The main local weather conditions were identified, in which numerical calculations show increased values of the air pollution index. The numerical predictions have confirmed an increase in the ground-level concentration of pollutants in the presence of temperature inversion or isothermy

A PMT-Block test bench

The front-end electronics of the ATLAS hadronic calorimeter (Tile Cal) is housed in a unit, called {\it PMT-Block}. The PMT-Block is a compact instrument comprising a light mixer, a PMT together with its divider and a {\it 3-in-1} card, which provides shaping, amplification and integration for the signals. This instrument needs to be qualified before being assembled on the detector. A PMT-Block test bench has been developed for this purpose. This test bench is a system which allows fast, albeit accurate enough, measurements of the main properties of a complete PMT-Block. The system, both hardware and software, and the protocol used for the PMT-Blocks characterisation are described in detail in this report. The results obtained in the test of about 10000 PMT-Blocks needed for the instrumentation of the ATLAS (LHC-CERN) hadronic Tile Calorimeter are also reported.Comment: 23 pages, 10 figure

Жизнь напоказ: почему сегодня важно выставлять свои действия в социальной сети

Social networks have emerged relatively recently in human life, but have already become an integral part of it. Companies tell about themselves, their activities, innovations, promotions and events in their profiles. This helps increase audience coverage, tell more about your brand, products, services. People in personal accounts have the opportunity to share their lives and creativity through photos, videos and texts. Now it is not necessary to receive higher education to become an operator, director or actor whose talent is recognized by society. It is enough to start a page on the social network and start sharing your knowledge and creativity.To find out why people post photos, videos and write texts on their social networks, a pilot sociological study was carried out. The method of deep interview with active users of social networks was chosen to carry out the study. The interview allowed getting unique information, to learn the opinion of users about social networks, the impact of the new way of communication on their life, to identify the reasons why users start and maintain profiles.The respondents were 20 users of social networks between the ages of 19 and 22. Interviewees have profiles on the most popular Instagram and Vkontakte networks. As a result of the analysis of the interview, a tendency was revealed to differ in the perception of users of their actions on the social network and similar actions of other users. Their content is perceived by them as opportunities to be in sight, as a resource to form their social status and an element of influence on their reference group. And the same content published by others is perceived as boasting. Социальные сети появились в жизни человечества сравнительно недавно, но уже стали неотъемлемой ее частью. Компании рассказывают о себе, своей деятельности, новинках, акциях и мероприятиях в своих профилях. Это помогает увеличить охват аудитории, больше рассказать о своем бренде, продуктах, услугах. У людей в личных аккаунтах появилась возможностью делиться своей жизнью и творчеством с помощью фотографий, видео и текстов. Теперь не обязательно получать высшее образование, чтобы стать оператором, режиссером или актером, чей талант признает общество. Достаточно завести страницу в социальной сети и начать делиться своими знаниями и творчеством.Чтобы выяснить, зачем люди выкладывают фотографии, видео и пишут тексты в своих социальных сетях, было проведено пилотное социологическое исследование. Для проведения исследования был выбран метод глубинного интервью с активными пользователями социальных сетей. Интервью позволило получить уникальную информацию, узнать мнение пользователей о социальных сетях, влиянии нового способа коммуникации на их жизнь, выявить причины, по которым пользователи завели и ведут профили.Респондентами стали 20 пользователей социальных сетей в возрасте с 19 до 22 лет. Опрошенные имеют профили в наиболее популярных сетях Instagram и Вконтакте. В результате анализа интервью была выявлена тенденция различия в восприятии пользователями своих действий в социальной сети и аналогичных действий других пользователей. Свой контент воспринимается ими как возможности быть на виду, как ресурс формирования своего социального статуса и элемент влияния на свою референтную группу. А тот же контент, опубликованный другими, воспринимается как хвастовство и понты
