Usage of zoonym «cat» for the purpose of animal and human description: syntagmatic and semantic analysis

Zoonyms are words which give names to animals. The importance of the study of zoonyms is due to their role in the linguistic view of the world and the cultural-linguistic approach to traditional problems of linguistics. The article deals with the usage of the zoonym «cat» for the purpose of animal and human description. The main purpose of research is the description of methodology of work with ‘zoonyms’ aimed at identification of metaphorical understanding of the image of the cat when it is used for human description.Актуальность выбранной темы обусловлена обращением к проблематике языковой картины мира, т. е. лингвокультурологической направленностью анализа традиционного языкового материала. В статье рассматривается употребление зоонима «кошка» для характеристики животного и человека. Основная цель исследования - описание методики работы со словом-зоонимом, направленная на выявление метафорического осмысления образа кошки, проявляющегося при употреблении соответствующего зоонима для характеристики человека

A dual-band cold-electron bolometer with on-chip filters for the 220/240GHz channels of the LSPE instrument

We are developing multi-chroic double-slot antenna with cold-electron Bolometer (CEB) on-chip filters for the 220/240 GHz interstellar dust monitoring channels of the LSPE-SWIPE experiment. For this goal, we used a narrowband double-slot resonant antenna with CEBs connected by coplanar lines. The simulations show that we have achieved 5% bandwidth for 220 GHz and 5.5% bandwidth for 240 GHz in our numeric modeling for the single cells. A series array of unit cells using double-slot design and coplanar lines with CEBs shows proper frequency selection. Estimations of the noise properties of the CEB arrays in a voltage-biased mode with the SQUID readout show photon-noise limited operation for the optical power load of 6 pW for channel 220 GHz and 20 pW for channel 240 GHz

Towards a microwave single-photon counter for searching axions

The major task of detecting axions or axion-like particles has two challenges. On the one hand, the ultimate sensitivity is required, down to the energy of a single microwave photon of the yoctojoule range. On the other hand, since the detected events are supposed to be rare, the dark count rate of the detector must be extremely low. We show that this trade-off can be approached due to the peculiar switching dynamics of an underdamped Josephson junction in the phase diffusion regime. The detection of a few photons\u27 energy at 10 GHz with dark count time above 10 s and the efficiency close to unity was demonstrated. Further enhancements require a detailed investigation of the junction switching dynamics

Approaching microwave photon sensitivity with Al Josephson junctions

Here, we experimentally test the applicability of an aluminium Josephson junction of a few micrometers size as a single photon counter in the microwave frequency range. We have measured the switching from the superconducting to the resistive state through the absorption of 10 GHz photons. The dependence of the switching probability on the signal power suggests that the switching is initiated by the simultaneous absorption of three and more photons, with a dark count time above 0.01 s
