    The article examines fundamental demographic changes in the USA that have been shifting the electorate and as a result - American politics; with wide gaps between the generations on key social, economic, political issues. The US presidential elections since 1980 were dominated by baby boomers (born 1946-1964) and prior generations, who have cast the vast majority of votes in every presidential election. The 2016 electorate has been the most diverse in the US history due to strong growth of young generations, and especially among Hispanic eligible voters. Millennials (born 1981–1998) and X generation (born 1965-1980) surpassed Baby Boomers and more old generations whose choices differ significantly in many fields; but the key problem is who really votes. The age structure of the American electorate and its influence on the election results; the role of pensioners and those, who’ll retire in the nearest future, as voters at the federal and state levels are in focus

    They presented the results of qualitative and quantitative indicator study concerning the motor activity of schoolchildren of both sexes, obtained by using individual wearable devices-fitness trackers. It was found that 8.2% of students, regardless of gender and age, are characterized by low values ​​of this indicator; 3.4% demonstrate high values ​​of the indicator relative to the hygiene norm.Se presentan los resultados del estudio de indicadores cualitativos y cuantitativos sobre la actividad motora de escolares de ambos sexos, obtenidos mediante el uso de dispositivos portátiles individuales: rastreadores de estado físico. Se encontró que el 8.2% de los estudiantes, independientemente de su sexo y edad, se caracterizan por valores bajos de este indicador; El 3,4% demuestra valores altos del indicador en relación con la norma de higiene

    Summary. Up-to-date possibilities and peculiarities in organizing and diagnosis of the Respiratory tract tubersulosis in the Republic of Moldova and in the foreign countries. The summary presents certain new materials on tuberculosis detecting diagnosis and verifying the diagnosis of the national and international authors. It was demonstrated that in these certain epidemiological circumstances this problem is very complicated. There are described the basic diagnosis methods and the organizing forms of the pulmonary tuberculosis detection. A special attention was to the changes that take place in the system of detecting the patients with tuberculosis and up-to-date peculiarities of the diagnosis process. It was shown that the modern diagnosis of the respiratory tract tuberculosis still remairs a difficult clinical problem.Резюме. Современные возможности и особенности организации выявления и диагностики туберкулеза органов дыхания в Р. Молдова и в зарубежных странах. В статье представлены обобщенные новые материалы по выявлению, диагностике туберкулеза и верификации диагноза отечественных и зарубежных авторов. Показано, что в сложившейся эпидемиологической обстановке эта проблема является наиболее острой. Описаны основные диагностические методы и организационные формы выявления туберкулеза легких. Обращено внимание на происходящие изменения в системе выявления больных туберкулезом и на современные особенности диагностического процесса. Отмечено, что современная диагностика туберкулеза органов дыхания остается непростой клинической проблемой

    Eight exoplanet candidates in SAO survey

    Here we present eight new candidates for exoplanets detected by the transit method at the Special Astrophysical Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Photometric observations were performed with a 50-cm robotic telescope during the second half of 2020. We detected transits with depths of Δm=0.0560.173m\Delta m = 0.056-0.173^m and periods P=18.8h8.3dP = 18.8^h-8.3^d in the light curves of stars with magnitudes of m=14.318.8mm = 14.3-18.8^m. All considered stars are classified as dwarfs with radii of R=0.40.6RsunR_* = 0.4-0.6 R_{sun} (with the uncertainty for one star up to 1.1Rsun1.1 R_{sun}). We estimated the candidate radii (all are greater than 1.4 times the Jovian radius), semi-major axes of their orbits (0.0120.035AU0.012-0.035 AU), and other orbital parameters by modelling. We report the light curves with transits for two stars obtained in 2022 based on individual observations.Comment: 16 pages, 14 figures, 3 table

    Azimuthal anisotropy and correlations in the hard scattering regime at RHIC

    Get PDF
    Azimuthal anisotropy (v2v_2) and two-particle angular correlations of high pTp_T charged hadrons have been measured in Au+Au collisions at sNN\sqrt{s_{NN}}=130 GeV for transverse momenta up to 6 GeV/c, where hard processes are expected to contribute significantly. The two-particle angular correlations exhibit elliptic flow and a structure suggestive of fragmentation of high pTp_T partons. The monotonic rise of v2(pT)v_2(p_T) for pT<2p_T<2 GeV/c is consistent with collective hydrodynamical flow calculations. At \pT>3 GeV/c a saturation of v2v_2 is observed which persists up to pT=6p_T=6 GeV/c.Comment: As publishe
