PATHOGENETIC MECHANISMS AND PREVENTION OF RADIATION DAMAGE TO ORGANS AND TISSUES OF THE ORAL CAVITY

Today it has been proven that the basis of the damaging effects of radionuclides entering the body is the transfer of energy to target tissues. Such lesions, in contrast to radiation sickness resulting from external gamma irradiation, are characterized by a weak severity of the primary reaction, the early appearance of dysfunction of critical organs, a slow course of recovery processes, a more pronounced long-term pathology. The issues of rehabilitation of children exposed to radiation in Russia began to deal with almost immediately after the Chernobyl accident. The system of special medical and preventive events which included was developed and approved: elimination of radionuclides from the child's organism, decrease of the activity of free radical processes, immunocorrective therapy, the differentiated methods of prevention of progressing of a disease and the three-level system of medical examination. Key words: Radiation Damage, Dental Status, Oral Cavity

Effect of electron irradiation on transparent conductive films ZnO:Al deposited at different sputtering power

Transparent conductive oxide thin films of Al-doped ZnO grown by rf magnetron sputtering were irradiated with high energy electrons with the energy 12.6 MeV and fluence 5·10¹⁴ e/cm². The films were produced using different sputtering powers. It has been shown that electron irradiation creates defects that lead to distortions of the crystal lattice, which results in reduced crystallinity of the films. Also, it leads to film heating that results in radiation annealing and relaxation of the lattice

Hidden attractors in fundamental problems and engineering models

Recently a concept of self-excited and hidden attractors was suggested: an attractor is called a self-excited attractor if its basin of attraction overlaps with neighborhood of an equilibrium, otherwise it is called a hidden attractor. For example, hidden attractors are attractors in systems with no equilibria or with only one stable equilibrium (a special case of multistability and coexistence of attractors). While coexisting self-excited attractors can be found using the standard computational procedure, there is no standard way of predicting the existence or coexistence of hidden attractors in a system. In this plenary survey lecture the concept of self-excited and hidden attractors is discussed, and various corresponding examples of self-excited and hidden attractors are considered

First measurement of direct f0(980)f_0(980) photoproduction on the proton

We report on the results of the first measurement of exclusive $f_0(980)$ meson photoproduction on protons for $E_\gamma=3.0 - 3.8$ GeV and $-t = 0.4-1.0$ GeV$^2$. Data were collected with the CLAS detector at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. The resonance was detected via its decay in the $\pi^+ \pi^-$ channel by performing a partial wave analysis of the reaction $\gamma p \to p \pi^+ \pi^-$. Clear evidence of the $f_0(980)$ meson was found in the interference between $P$ and $S$ waves at $M_{\pi^+ \pi^-}\sim 1$ GeV. The $S$-wave differential cross section integrated in the mass range of the $f_0(980)$ was found to be a factor of 50 smaller than the cross section for the $\rho$ meson. This is the first time the $f_0(980)$ meson has been measured in a photoproduction experiment

Partial wave analysis of the reaction gamma p -> p omega$ and the search for nucleon resonances

An event-based partial wave analysis (PWA) of the reaction gamma p -> p omega has been performed on a high-statistics dataset obtained using the CLAS at Jefferson Lab for center-of-mass energies from threshold up to 2.4 GeV. This analysis benefits from access to the world's first high precision spin density matrix element measurements, available to the event-based PWA through the decay distribution of omega-> pi+ pi - pi0. The data confirm the dominance of the t-channel pi0 exchange amplitude in the forward direction. The dominant resonance contributions are consistent with the previously identified states F[15](1680) and D[13](1700) near threshold, as well as the G[17](2190) at higher energies. Suggestive evidence for the presence of a J(P)=5/2(+) state around 2 GeV, a "missing" state, has also been found. Evidence for other states is inconclusive

Beam Spin Asymmetries in DVCS with CLAS at 4 .8 GeV

We report measurements of the beam spin asymmetry in Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS) at an electron beam energy of 4.8 GeV using the CLAS detector at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. The DVCS beam spin asymmetry has been measured in a wide range of kinematics, 1(GeV/c)$^2$ $<Q^2<2.8$(GeV/c)$^2$, $0.12<x_B<0.48$, and 0.1 (GeV/c)$^2$ $<-t<0.8$(GeV/c)$^2$, using the reaction \pEpX. The number of H$(e,e^{\prime}\gamma p)$ and H$(e,e^{\prime}\pi^0 p)$ events are separated in each $(Q^2,x_B,t)$ bin by a fit to the line shape of the H$(e,e^{\prime}p)X$ $M_x^2$ distribution. The validity of the method was studied in detail using experimental and simulated data. It was shown, that with the achieved missing mass squared resolution and the available statistics, the separation of DVCS-BH and $\pi^0$ events can reliably be done with less than 5% uncertainty. The $Q^2$- and $t$-dependences of the $\sin\phi$ moments of the asymmetry are extracted and compared with theoretical calculations

First measurement of the polarization observable E and helicity-dependent cross sections in single π0 photoproduction from quasi-free nucleons

The double-polarization observable E and the helicity-dependent cross sections σ1/2 and σ3/2 have been measured for the first time for single π0 photoproduction from protons and neutrons bound in the deuteron at the electron accelerator facility MAMI in Mainz, Germany. The experiment used a circularly polarized photon beam and a longitudinally polarized deuterated butanol target. The reaction products, recoil nucleons and decay photons from the π0 meson were detected with the Crystal Ball and TAPS electromagnetic calorimeters. Effects from nuclear Fermi motion were removed by a kinematic reconstruction of the π0N final state. A comparison to data measured with a free proton target showed that the absolute scale of the cross sections is significantly modified by nuclear final-state interaction (FSI) effects. However, there is no significant effect on the asymmetry E since the σ1/2 and σ3/2 components appear to be influenced in a similar way. Thus, the best approximation of the two helicity-dependent cross sections for the free neutron is obtained by combining the asymmetry E measured with quasi-free neutrons and the unpolarized cross section corrected for FSI effects under the assumption that the FSI effects are similar for neutrons and protons

First measurement of the helicity asymmetry E in eta photoproduction on the proton

Results are presented for the first measurement of the double-polarization helicity asymmetry E for the $\eta$ photoproduction reaction $\gamma p \rightarrow \eta p$. Data were obtained using the FROzen Spin Target (FROST) with the CLAS spectrometer in Hall B at Jefferson Lab, covering a range of center-of-mass energy W from threshold to 2.15 GeV and a large range in center-of-mass polar angle. As an initial application of these data, the results have been incorporated into the J\"ulich model to examine the case for the existence of a narrow $N^*$ resonance between 1.66 and 1.70 GeV. The addition of these data to the world database results in marked changes in the predictions for the E observable using that model. Further comparison with several theoretical approaches indicates these data will significantly enhance our understanding of nucleon resonances

Proportional criterion of metabolic activity and fundamentals of drug dosage

A method for determining the drug dose is proposed, according to which the dose of injected drug is proportional to body weight to the power 2/3. The dosage of narcotic analgesic ketamine is in good agreement with the proposed relationship

UHF dielectrometry of biological liquids under conditions of disturbed water exchange

The electrical properties of fractions of blood, B-bile, and aqueous ethanol solutions were studied by UHF dielectrometry. A relationship between the electric permittivity of these biological liquids at a frequency of 62 GHz and their functional value was established. The changes in the electrical characteristics of the solutions in some disturbed functional states were explained by the rebuilding of water quasicrystaalline structure
