A Model of Interindustry Interaction in the USSR

A quantitative analysis of the development of interindustry flows in the Soviet economy showed that traditional input-output methods needed to be expanded and generalized for use in Soviet medium-term (5-7 year) planning. In particular, it is necessary to account for supply constraints on some products and relative surpluses of others. This paper describes a model which accounts for these influences, fits closely the development of the Soviet economy from 1950 to 1975, and can be and has been used in the exploratory stages of Soviet planning

Theory of transient spectroscopy of multiple quantum well structures

A theory of the transient spectroscopy of quantum well (QW) structures under a large applied bias is presented. An analytical model of the initial part of the transient current is proposed. The time constant of the transient current depends not only on the emission rate from the QWs, as is usually assumed, but also on the subsequent carrier transport across QWs. Numerical simulation was used to confirm the validity of the proposed model, and to study the transient current on a larger time scale. It is shown that the transient current is influenced by the nonuniform distribution of the electric field and related effects, which results in a step-like behavior of the current. A procedure of extraction of the QW emission time from the transient spectroscopy experiments is suggested.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, to be published in J. Appl. Phy

Property (T)(T) for noncommutative universal lattices

We establish a new spectral criterion for Kazhdan's property $(T)$ which is applicable to a large class of discrete groups defined by generators and relations. As the main application, we prove property $(T)$ for the groups $EL_n(R)$, where $n\geq 3$ and $R$ is an arbitrary finitely generated associative ring. We also strengthen some of the results on property $(T)$ for Kac-Moody groups from a paper of Dymara and Januszkiewicz (Invent. Math 150 (2002)).Comment: 47 pages; final versio

Noiseless Collective Motion out of Noisy Chaos

We consider the effect of microscopic external noise on the collective motion of a globally coupled map in fully desynchronized states. Without the external noise a macroscopic variable shows high-dimensional chaos distinguishable from random motion. With the increase of external noise intensity, the collective motion is successively simplified. The number of effective degrees of freedom in the collective motion is found to decrease as $-\log{\sigma^2}$ with the external noise variance $\sigma^2$. It is shown how the microscopic noise can suppress the number of degrees of freedom at a macroscopic level.Comment: 9 pages RevTex file and 4 postscript figure

Monopoles, Dyons and Black Holes in the Four-Dimensional Einstein-Yang-Mills Theory

A continuum of monopole, dyon and black hole solutions exist in the Einstein-Yang-Mills theory in asymptotically anti-de Sitter space. Their structure is studied in detail. The solutions are classified by non-Abelian electric and magnetic charges and the ADM mass. The stability of the solutions which have no node in non-Abelian magnetic fields is established. There exist critical spacetime solutions which terminate at a finite radius, and have universal behavior. The moduli space of the solutions exhibits a fractal structure as the cosmological constant approaches zero.Comment: 36 Pages, 16 Figures. Minor typos corrected and one figure modifie

Study of the radical products of the thermal decomposition of nitrocellulose

The thermal transformations of nitrocellulose are accompanied by the formation of RN02 - radicals and allyl radicals. A mechanism for the formation of these radicals was proposed. © 1990 Plenum Publishing Corporation

New aspects in the prevention of acute respiratory infections in children with bronchial asthma

In an open prospective randomized comparative study shows the preventive efficacy and safety of Ergoferon in children with BA in season of high incidence of cancer. It is established that the prophylactic use of Ergoferon within a month to reduce the frequency of episodes of acute respiratory viral infections, and bronchial asthma exacerbations in children of preschool age ( p<0,05).В открытом проспективном сравнительном рандомизированном исследовании показана профилактическая эффективности и безопасности применения Эргоферона у детей с БА в сезон повышенной заболеваемости ОРВИ. Установлено, что профилактический прием Эргоферона в течение месяца позволяет снизить частоту эпизодов ОРВИ и обострений БА у детей дошкольного возраста ( р<0,05)

Excitations in the Halo Nucleus He-6 Following The Li-7(gamma,p)He-6 Reaction

A broad excited state was observed in 6-He with energy E_x = 5 +/- 1 MeV and width Gamma = 3 +/- 1 MeV, following the reaction Li-7(gamma,p)He-6. The state is consistent with a number of broad resonances predicted by recent cluster model calculations. The well-established reaction mechanism, combined with a simple and transparent analysis procedure confers considerable validity to this observation.Comment: 3 pages of LaTeX, 3 figures in PostScript, approved for publication in Phys.

Investment behaviour of machine-building enterprises and the capital cost

The formation of an effective financial and investment model of engineering production requires the organization of capital cost management. This article is intended to consider the extent to which the features of the investment behaviour of Russian engineering enterprises affect the cost of capital. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd
