Semantic-Syntactic relations and cognitive features of Russian and Uzbek pseudonyms

This article discusses and analyzes the semantic-syntactic relations and cognitive features of Russian and Uzbek pseudonyms, national and cultural originality of pseudonyms. If we compare the languages and cultures of different peoples, we can distinguish matching and non-matching elements. An analysis of the semantics of pseudonyms showed that a pseudonym retains a pre-onomastic meaning and has a peculiar semantics, and the bases of pseudonyms inform about the character of a person, about physical properties and shortcomings, about behavior, about origin, about comparing a person with various objects, animals, plants, about a profession, an occupation, a social position, a particular life event, etc. It should be also emphasized the role of metaphorization in the formation of pseudonyms, since the process of metaphorization (as it is defined by cognitive linguistics) is a very important tool in the creation of pseudonyms. It is closely connected with the literary text, as it predetermines the special position of the context, acting as an aesthetically significant component of the literary text

Spill over effects of Geopolitical risk on the banking sector of CIS countries

This study examines the spill over effects of geopolitical risks (GPR) and extreme shocks on Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) economies, as result of the Russia – Ukraine war, with particular focus on financial institutions. Further, we investigate whether the performance of CIS banks has been impacted by economic sanctions imposed on Russia since the start of the conflict. Understanding GPR transmission mechanisms and consequences on Russia’s neighbouring countries allows policymakers and financial institutions to formulate and implement risk management strategies. For a global measure of geo-political risk, we employ the global GPR index from Caldara and Iacoviello (2022) and we use the Diebold-Yilmaz (2012) connectedness model to estimate the spill over effect. First, we investigate the spill over effect of the recent conflict on the returns of banks for a sample of CIS countries. Further, we examine the spill over effect on macro-economic indicators of our sample of countries. Our preliminary results do not show significant GPR transmissions in terms of returns and risk within the banking sectors of the CIS countries examined

Assessment of the microbial communities and their petroleum hydrocarbon transformation potential in the northern Caspian sea

Marine bacterial biodiversity is an immense library of tools which have a potential in bioremediation of oil spills [1]. Oil industry is flourishing in the Caspian Sea which is effecting local environment and we hypothesize that natural seeps and historical anthropogenic leaks have sustained indigenous microbial communities, including hydrocarbon-oxidizing microorganisms (Picture 1). Indigenous microbial communities of Northern part of the Sea and their overall metabolic potential have not been studied comprehensively. We aim to gain knowledge about the bacterial community, determine specific hydrocarbon degrading species and study their potential in bioremediation of oil-polluted Caspian Sea waters

Subfossil cladocera from boreal lake gahkozero (The republic of Karelia, Russia) as paleoenvironmental proxies

© SGEM2017. All Rights Reserved. This investigation is aimed to determine general development patterns of the natural and climatic situations and lakes of the boreal zone in the later and postglacial time in the southeastern periphery of the Fennoscandian crystalline shield since the time of the last deglaciation. The analysis of the subfossil Cladoceran community was carried out on the basis of the 23 samples of Lake Gahkozero’ bottom sediments in the Republic of Karelia. In the subfossil Cladoceran community of the lake 42 taxa have been identified. The species inhabiting the zones of the Palaearctic and Holarctic are predominant in the lake; most of the identified subfossil remains relate to the pelagic species inhabiting the open part of the reservoir. The discovered subfossil remains of the phytophilous species (representatives of the genera Alona, Alonella, Pleuroxus) indicate the presence of the well-developed zone of macrophytes in the lake. The history of the development and the evolution of the lake is traced by the change of the taxonomic composition in the column of the bottom sediments. In the samples there is a dominance of two taxa - Bosmina (Eubosmina) cf. longispina и Chydorus cf. sphaericus, which replace each other during the evolution of the lake. The analysis of the variation in the diversity of the biotic groups is carried out using indices, determining the degree of species richness, diversity, and the dominance of Cladoceran communities. Results of statistical and stratigraphic analyses are presented

The Gallium Neutrino Absorption Cross Section and its Uncertainty

In the recent Baksan Experiment on Sterile Transitions (BEST), a suppressed rate of neutrino absorption on a gallium target was observed, consistent with earlier results from neutrino source calibrations of the SAGE and GALLEX/GNO solar neutrino experiments. The BEST collaboration, utilizing a 3.4 MCi 51Cr neutrino source, found observed-to-expected counting rates at two very short baselines of R=0.791 plus/minus 0.05 and 0.766 plus/minus 0.05, respectively. Among recent neutrino experiments, BEST is notable for the simplicity of both its neutrino spectrum, line neutrinos from an electron-capture source whose intensity can be measured to a estimated precision of 0.23%, and its absorption cross section, where the precisely known rate of electron capture to the gallium ground state, 71Ge(e,nue)71Ga(g.s.), establishes a minimum value. However, the absorption cross section uncertainty is a common systematic in the BEST, SAGE, and GALLEX/GNO neutrino source experiments. Here we update that cross section, considering a variety of electroweak corrections and the role of transitions to excited states, to establish both a central value and reasonable uncertainty, thereby enabling a more accurate assessment of the statistical significance of the gallium anomalies. Results are given for 51Cr and 37Ar sources. The revised neutrino capture rates are used in a re-evaluation of the BEST and gallium anomalies.Comment: 21 pages, 5 figure

Influence of rock-forming and catalytic additives on transformation of highly viscous heavy oil

© 2016 Pleiades Publishing, Ltd. The influence of the rock-forming additives kaolin and alumina in the presence of nickel compounds on the thermal catalytic conversion of heavy oil at a temperature of 360°C in a reducing atmosphere at different pressures in the system has been revealed. The effect of poly-α-olefins as a hydrogen donor has been examined. It has been found that there are predominant degradation reactions of the resinous components, aliphatic substituents in asphaltenes, and branched aliphatic structures accompanied by redistribution of n-alkanes toward homologues with a lower molecular weight, resulting in reduction in the viscosity of heavy oil. Conducting the process in the presence of Al2O3, Ni, and poly-α-olefins at a pressure of 8 MPa increases the quantity of light fractions of the oil and facilitates the degradation of asphaltenes. A decrease of pressure in the experiment on the oil with kaolin in a reducing atmosphere leads to a decrease in aromaticity of the final product and an increase in the yield of lube oil hydrocarbon and low-boiling fractions

Reconstruction of the history of a thermokarst lake in the Mid-Holocene based on an analysis of subfossil Cladocera (Siberia, Central Yakutia)

© 2017, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd. This paper presents the results of a cladoceran analysis of a sediment core with a lenght of 382 cm collected from a pingo in alas Khara Bulgunnyakh located in Central Yakutia. Based on the Cladocera analysis results, the formation of the lake had started during the Holocene climatic optimum ~6600 cal. yrs. BP. The analysis of changes in the species composition of subfossil cladoceran communities made it possible to identify, on the basis of cluster analysis, four statistically significant ecological zones. The period of optimal conditions for the Cladocera community is defined by a complex evened community structure and numerous cladoceran remains in the sediments accumulated between 6500 and 6000 cal. yrs. BP. The history of the thermokarst water body development and existence reconstructed on the basis of the subfossil cladoceran analysis was rapid and short
