Continuous selections of multivalued mappings
This survey covers in our opinion the most important results in the theory of
continuous selections of multivalued mappings (approximately) from 2002 through
2012. It extends and continues our previous such survey which appeared in
Recent Progress in General Topology, II, which was published in 2002. In
comparison, our present survey considers more restricted and specific areas of
mathematics. Note that we do not consider the theory of selectors (i.e.
continuous choices of elements from subsets of topological spaces) since this
topics is covered by another survey in this volume
Fractional Variations for Dynamical Systems: Hamilton and Lagrange Approaches
Fractional generalization of an exterior derivative for calculus of
variations is defined. The Hamilton and Lagrange approaches are considered.
Fractional Hamilton and Euler-Lagrange equations are derived. Fractional
equations of motion are obtained by fractional variation of Lagrangian and
Hamiltonian that have only integer derivatives.Comment: 21 pages, LaTe
Test beam studies of the TRD prototype filled with different gas mixtures based on Xe, Kr, and Ar
Towards the end of LHC Run1, gas leaks were observed in some parts of the
Transition Radiation Tracker (TRT) of ATLAS. Due to these leaks, primary Xenon
based gas mixture was replaced with Argon based mixture in various parts.
Test-beam studies with a dedicated Transition Radiation Detector (TRD)
prototype were carried out in 2015 in order to understand transition radiation
performance with mixtures based on Argon and Krypton. We present and discuss
the results of these test-beam studies with different active gas compositions.Comment: 5 pages,12 figures, The 2nd International Conference on Particle

Some results of test beam studies of Transition Radiation Detector prototypes at CERN
Operating conditions and challenging demands of present and future
accelerator experiments result in new requirements on detector systems. There
are many ongoing activities aimed to develop new technologies and to improve
the properties of detectors based on existing technologies. Our work is
dedicated to development of Transition Radiation Detectors (TRD) suitable for
different applications. In this paper results obtained in beam tests at SPS
accelerator at CERN with the TRD prototype based on straw technology are
presented. TRD performance was studied as a function of thickness of the
transition radiation radiator and working gas mixture pressure
A study of hydroxyapatite nanocrystals by the multifrequency EPR and ENDOR spectroscopy methods
Specimens of powders of hydroxyapatite (Ca10(PO 4)6(OH)2) with average crystallite sizes in the range of 20-50 nm synthesized by the wet precipitation method have been investigated by the multifrequency (9 and 94 GHz) electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and electron-nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) methods. In specimens subjected to X-ray irradiation at room temperature, EPR signals that are caused by nitrogen compounds have been observed. Numerical calculations performed in terms of the density functional theory show that the observed EPR signal is caused by the occurrence of paramagnetic centers, the structure of which is NO 3 2- and which replace the positions of PO 4 3- in the hydroxyapatite structure. © 2014 Pleiades Publishing, Ltd
Heat conduction in 1D lattices with on-site potential
The process of heat conduction in one-dimensional lattice with on-site
potential is studied by means of numerical simulation. Using discrete
Frenkel-Kontorova, --4 and sinh-Gordon we demonstrate that contrary to
previously expressed opinions the sole anharmonicity of the on-site potential
is insufficient to ensure the normal heat conductivity in these systems. The
character of the heat conduction is determined by the spectrum of nonlinear
excitations peculiar for every given model and therefore depends on the
concrete potential shape and temperature of the lattice. The reason is that the
peculiarities of the nonlinear excitations and their interactions prescribe the
energy scattering mechanism in each model. For models sin-Gordon and --4
phonons are scattered at thermalized lattice of topological solitons; for
sinh-Gordon and --4 - models the phonons are scattered at localized
high-frequency breathers (in the case of --4 the scattering mechanism
switches with the growth of the temperature).Comment: 26 pages, 18 figure
Wave transmission, phonon localization and heat conduction of 1D Frenkel-Kontorova chain
We study the transmission coefficient of a plane wave through a 1D finite
quasi-periodic system -- the Frenkel-Kontorova (FK) model -- embedding in an
infinite uniform harmonic chain. By varying the mass of atoms in the infinite
uniform chain, we obtain the transmission coefficients for {\it all}
eigenfrequencies. The phonon localization of the incommensurated FK chain is
also studied in terms of the transmission coefficients and the Thouless
exponents. Moreover, the heat conduction of Rubin-Greer-like model for FK chain
at low temperature is calculated. It is found that the stationary heat flux
, and depends on the strength of the external
potential.Comment: 15 pages in Revtex, 8 EPS figure
DYNAMIC REGIMES IN PERMALLOY MAGNETIC FILMS OF DIFFERENT THICKNESSES IN СONSTANT MAGNETIC FIELD
This work deals with model of permalloy magnetic film in constant magnetic film. Micromagnetic simulation has shown that with change of film thickness and value of magnetic field different dynamic regimes existed depending on starting conditions. Between most interesting ones are movement of Neel walls with deformations for extremely thin films and cross-tie walls movement with periodical born and annihilation of 3D- topological structures for more thick films
Recent Developments of NEMO: Detection of Solar Eruptions Characteristics
The recent developments in space instrumentation for solar observations and
telemetry have caused the necessity of advanced pattern recognition tools for
the different classes of solar events. The Extreme ultraviolet Imaging
Telescope (EIT) of solar corona on-board SOHO spacecraft has uncovered a new
class of eruptive events which are often identified as signatures of Coronal
Mass Ejection (CME) initiations on solar disk. It is evident that a crucial
task is the development of an automatic detection tool of CMEs precursors. The
Novel EIT wave Machine Observing (NEMO) (http://sidc.be/nemo) code is an
operational tool that detects automatically solar eruptions using EIT image
sequences. NEMO applies techniques based on the general statistical properties
of the underlying physical mechanisms of eruptive events on the solar disc. In
this work, the most recent updates of NEMO code - that have resulted to the
increase of the recognition efficiency of solar eruptions linked to CMEs - are
presented. These updates provide calculations of the surface of the dimming
region, implement novel clustering technique for the dimmings and set new
criteria to flag the eruptive dimmings based on their complex characteristics.
The efficiency of NEMO has been increased significantly resulting to the
extraction of dimmings observed near the solar limb and to the detection of
small-scale events as well. As a consequence, the detection efficiency of CMEs
precursors and the forecasts of CMEs have been drastically improved.
Furthermore, the catalogues of solar eruptive events that can be constructed by
NEMO may include larger number of physical parameters associated to the dimming
regions.Comment: 12 Pages, 5 figures, submitted to Solar Physic
MICROMAGNETIC SIMULATIONS OF PERIODIC CHAINS OF TRANSITION STRUCTURES IN VORTEX-LIKE DOMAIN WALLS (PARALLEL PROCESSING IN MUMAX 3)
Many properties of magnetically ordered materials depend on existence and dynamical behavior o f locally inhomogeneous transition structures (TS’s) in domain walls (DW’s). This work deals with TS’s, which emerge in asymmetric Bloch domain walls and their chains’ interaction. We achieve energies of domain walls as functions o f the distance between two TS’s in presence and absence of external field in order to determine the kind of interaction: repulsion, attraction or fixing on definite distance. We have adapted the OOMMF programs for the parallel processing package MuMAX 3
