4-Dimensional cellular automaton track finder for the CBM experiment

The CBM experiment (FAIR/GSI, Darmstadt, Germany) will focus on the measurement of rare probes at interaction rates up to 10 MHz with data flow of up to 1 TB/s. It requires a novel read-out and data-acquisition concept with self-triggered electronics and free-streaming data. In this case resolving different collisions is not a trivial task and event building must be performed in software online. That requires full online event reconstruction and selection not only in space, but also in time, so-called 4D event building and selection. This is a task of the First-Level Event Selection (FLES).The FLES reconstruction and selection package consists of several modules: track finding, track fitting, short-lived particles finding, event building and event selection. The Cellular Automaton (CA) track finder algorithm was adapted towards time-slice-based reconstruction and included into the CBMROOT framework. In this article, we describe the modification done to the algorithm, as well as the performance of the developed time-based approach

Emergence of collective behavior in a system of autonomous agents

We study the properties of emergent collective behavior in a system of interacting autonomous agents. The system evolves in time according to two rules of communication, one from interactions between agents and another one from interactions of the agents with an additional agent which evolves in time in a periodic and stable manner. The application of these two rules is decided by a prescribed probability distribution. We analyze the emergence and the efficiency (coordination) with which collective patterns are constructed in time as a function of the parameters of the system

Entropy production in chemically non-equilibrium quark-gluon plasma created in central Pb+Pb collisions at LHC energies

We study the possibility that partonic matter produced at early stage of ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions is out of chemical equilibrium. It is assumed that initially this matter is mostly composed of gluons, but quarks and antiquarks are produced at later times. The dynamical evolution of partonic system is described by the Bjorken-like ideal hydrodynamics with a time dependent quark fugacity. The results of this model are compared with those obtained by assuming the complete chemical equilibrium of partons already at the initial stage. It is shown that in a chemically non-equilibrium scenario the entropy gradually increases, and about 25% of the total final entropy is generated during the hydrodynamic evolution of deconfined matter. We argue that the (anti)quark suppression included in this approach may be responsible for reduced (anti)baryon to meson ratios observed in heavy-ion collisions at LHC energies.Comment: 19 pages, 6 figures, minor changes to match published versio

Elastic neural net for the earthquake epicenter search

Automatic processing of seismic data is today a key element in the efforts to achieve high quality seismic systems. Automated procedures for locating seismic events with a network including arrays and single element seismometers usually incorporate back-azimuth estimates, arrival-time data, and associated uncertainties into a least-squares-inverse location algorithm. Such an algorithm is quite cumbersome and requires expanding a set of non-linear equations in a Taylor series. Second-order terms usually not included in the algorithm can be important if the initial estimate is far from the solution

МОТИВ ВЛАСТИ В ИСТОРИОСОФСКОМ ПОЭТИЧЕСКОМ ДИСКУРСЕ М.В. ЛОМОНОСОВА

The article defines the role of M. V. Lomonosov as one of the founders of the Russian state poetic historiosophy of the XVIII century. It is concluded that Lomonosov odic works were focused on the reflection of the rapidly changing present, on glorification of the people who carry the idea of enlightened autocratic power and on popularization of the concept about Russian statehood progressive development. It is emphasized that the main historical character of Lomonosov odes becomes Peter I, who acquires the status of a mythologeme, a cultural hero, the figure that stands between the ancient and new history of Russia. It is concluded that in Lomonosov solemn odes there was created the political historiosophy about Russian government for a quarter of a century - from the end of Anna Ioannovna reign to the beginning of Catherine II reign. The picture of "Imperial happiness" emerging in the poet's mind was formed on the basis of mythologism, naturalistic and secularized providential historicism. Lomonosov made the concept of progressive development for Russian statehood and culture of the XVIII century and it was assimilated by all the authors of odes and epic poems for the second half of the century.El artículo define el papel de M. V. Lomonosov como uno de los fundadores de la historiosofía poética estatal rusa del siglo XVIII. Se concluye que los trabajos de Lomonosov se centraron en el reflejo del presente rápidamente cambiante, en la glorificación de las personas que tienen la idea del poder autocrático ilustrado y en la popularización del concepto sobre el desarrollo progresivo del estado ruso. Se enfatiza que el personaje histórico principal de las odas de Lomonosov se convierte en Pedro I, que adquiere el estatus de mitólogo, héroe cultural, la figura que se encuentra entre la historia antigua y nueva de Rusia. Se concluye que en Lomonosov, durante un cuarto de siglo, se creó la historia política del gobierno ruso, desde el final del reinado de Anna Ioannovna hasta el comienzo del reinado de Catalina II. La imagen de la "felicidad imperial" emergente en la mente del poeta se formó sobre la base del mitologismo, el historicismo providencial naturalista y secularizado. Lomonosov hizo el concepto de desarrollo progresivo para la estadidad y cultura rusa del siglo XVIII y fue asimilado por todos los autores de las odas y los poemas épicos de la segunda mitad del siglo.В статье определяется роль М.В. Ломоносова как одного из создателей российской государственной поэтической историософии XVIII века. Заключается, что одические произведения Ломоносова были ориентированы на отражение быстротекущего изменчивого настоящего, на героизацию носителей идеи просвещенной самодержавной власти и на популяризацию концепции прогрессивного развития русской государственности. Подчеркивается, что главным историческим персонажем ломоносовских од становится Петр I, который обретает статус мифологемы, культурного героя, той фигуры, которая стоит как бы между древней и новой историей России. Делается вывод о том, что в торжественных одах Ломоносова создана политическая историософия российской власти за четверть века - от конца царствования Анны Иоанновны до начала правления Екатерины II. Возникающая в сознании поэта картина «имперского счастья» складывалась на основе мифологизма, натуралистического и секуляризованного провиденциального историзма. Созданная Ломоносовым концепция прогрессивного развития русской государственности и культуры XVIII века и была усвоена всеми авторами од и эпических поэм второй половины столетия

ДИФФЕРЕНЦИРОВАННЫЙ ПОДХОД КАК ФАКТОР РАЗВИТИЯ ПРОФЕССИОНАЛЬНО-КОММУНИКАТИВНОЙ КОМПЕТЕНЦИИ СТУДЕНТОВ

Dynamically developing world has caused fundamental changes in the field of education, so there come new trends in the implementation of traditional approaches and new aspects in education sphere, in particular in the context of the formation of educational strategies in solving urgent problems of creative realization of students’ personal potential. The relevance of the implementation of the differentiated approach within the educational system in the modernization of Russian education at the present stage is explained by the fact that it makes it possible, on the one hand, to adapt the educational system to the levels of training, students’ individual characteristics and interests, on the other hand – to formulate a desire for self-education, development of the professional competence of future specialists. The differentiated approach in higher education is aimed at overcoming the contradictions between the level of requirements in educational and professional activities and the real possibilities of each student. The implementation of this approach involves updating the content and professional components, taking into account the characteristics of each student these are individual, age and professional. The main purpose of the study was to determine the efficient criteria and indicators on the implementation of the differentiated approach to students that is to their communicative competence, knowledge of foreign language professional terminology, orientation in cognitive professional and communicative values and the nature of a person’s focus on these values. The results of the study showed that in the process of students professional education the differentiated approach performs the following functions: it is a means of development of an individual personality and future student’s creative potential; it affects the personal and professional adaptation of a future student in society; it contributes to the effective formation of conditions for resourceful professional self-realization of a future student.El desarrollo dinámico del mundo ha provocado cambios fundamentales en el campo de la educación, por lo que surgen nuevas tendencias en la implementación de enfoques tradicionales y nuevos aspectos en el ámbito de la educación, en particular en el contexto de la formación de estrategias educativas para resolver los problemas urgentes de la realización creativa de El potencial personal de los estudiantes. La relevancia de la implementación del enfoque diferenciado dentro del sistema educativo en la modernización de la educación rusa en la etapa actual se explica por el hecho de que hace posible, por un lado, adaptar el sistema educativo a los niveles de capacitación, Las características e intereses individuales de los estudiantes, por otro lado, para formular un deseo de autoeducación, el desarrollo de la competencia profesional de futuros especialistas. El enfoque diferenciado en la educación superior tiene como objetivo superar las contradicciones entre el nivel de requisitos en las actividades educativas y profesionales y las posibilidades reales de cada estudiante. La implementación de este enfoque implica actualizar el contenido y los componentes profesionales, teniendo en cuenta las características de cada estudiante: individual, de edad y profesional. El objetivo principal del estudio fue determinar los criterios e indicadores eficientes sobre la implementación del enfoque diferenciado para los estudiantes, es decir, su competencia comunicativa, el conocimiento de la terminología profesional en idiomas extranjeros, la orientación en los valores cognitivos profesionales y comunicativos y la naturaleza de la persona. centrarse en estos valores. Los resultados del estudio mostraron que en el proceso de educación profesional de los estudiantes, el enfoque diferenciado realiza las siguientes funciones: es un medio de desarrollo de una personalidad individual y el potencial creativo del futuro estudiante; Afecta la adaptación personal y profesional de un futuro alumno de la sociedad; contribuye a la formación efectiva de condiciones para la autorrealización profesional ingeniosa de un futuro estudiante.Динамично развивающийся мир вызвал кардинальные изменения в сфере образования, в связи с чем появились новые тенденции в осуществлении традиционных подходов и возникли новые аспекты, в частности в контексте формирования образовательных стратегий в решении насущных задач творческой реализации личностного потенциала студентов. Актуальность реализации дифференцированного подхода образовательной системы в условиях модернизации российского образования на современном этапе объясняется тем, что она дает возможность, с одной стороны, адаптировать образовательную систему к уровням подготовки, индивидуальным особенностям студентов, их интересам, а с другой стороны – сформулировать стремление к самообразованию, развитию профессиональной компетенции будущих специалистов. Дифференцированный подход в высшем образовании направлен на преодоление противоречий между уровнем требований в учебно-профессиональной деятельности и реальными возможностями каждого студента. Осуществление названного подхода предполагает обновление содержательного и профессионального компонентов с учетом особенностей каждого студента: индивидуальных, возрастных, профессиональных.

Результаты исследования показали, что в процессе профессионального образования студентов дифференцированный подход выполняет следующие функции: является средством развития индивидуальной личности и развития творческого потенциала будущего студента; оказывает воздействие на личностную и профессиональную адаптацию будущего студента в обществе; способствует эффективному созданию условия для творческой профессиональной самореализации будущего студента

LEXICAL AND PRAGMATIC MEANS OF IMPLEMENTING THE ATTENTION STRATEGY IN GERMAN ENTERTAINMENT DISCOURSE

Background. For many decades, the attention of researchers has been riveted to the phenomenon of discourse. Its subjects, key functions and concepts were considered. The grounds for discourse typology were identified. The relevance of the study is explained by the fact that the communicative environment of German entertainment discourse is little researched, and the need for a more detailed analyzing of its constitutive features and strategies. Purpose of this study is to describe lexico-semantic and syntactic means, verbs of various types, used to implement the attention strategy in German entertainment discourse. Materials and methods. The material of this study was the “star” interviews texts posted on the websites of the German publications “Der Spiegel” and “Die Zeit”. The methods of continuous sampling and generalization, as well as the method of semantic analysis, were used in the work. Results. The entertainment attraction, their ability to diversify people’s lives, contributed to the modification, modernization and continuity of many traditions and customs. The paper deals with the types and genres of entertaining discourse, its subjects, and the originality of communicants’ conversation. It is emphasized that one of the most frequent strategies used by participants in the entertainment discourse is the attention strategy. This strategy is implemented through a set of specific constructions (“ich bin / war”; “ich habe / ich habe nicht”; “mein, meine” plus a character trait), verbs of various types (“mögen”, “lieben”; “können”), lexico-semantic and syntactic techniques. Practical implications. The results of the study can be used in lectures on stylistics, pragmatics, imagology
