Statistical research and simulation of MEMS gyros measurements
This article provides results of the statistical analysis and numerical evaluation of noise level components in the MEMS gyroscopes measurements. The Simulink-model of measurement errors for the ADIS16250 angular rate sensors was build, and test data and simulation results were analyzed
Relativistic parsec-scale jets: I. Particle acceleration
We develop a theory of particle acceleration inside relativistic rotating
electron-positron force-free jets with spiral magnetic fields. We considered
perturbation of the stationary magnetic field structure and found that
acceleration takes place in the regions where the Alfven resonant condition
with the eigenmodes in the jet is fulfilled, i.e. where the local Alfven speed
is equal to the phase speed of an eigenmode. The acceleration mechanism is
regular acceleration by the electric field of the electromagnetic wave, which
is the eigenmode of the force-free cylindrical jet: particles drift out of the
region of the large wave amplitude near the Alfven resonant surface and gain
energy. Acceleration in the strong electric field near the Alfven resonance and
synchrotron losses combine to form a power-law energy spectrum of
ultra-relativistic electrons and positrons with index between 2 and 3 depending
upon the initial energy of the injected particles. The power law distribution
ranges from 10 MeV to 1000 MeV.Comment: 14 pages, 4 figures; Astron. Astrophys. in pres
Investigation of fly larvae Lucilia Caesar application in pet feed composition
ArticleThe biomass of insect larvae is world-widely used as a valuable raw material for the pharmaceutical, microbiological, cosmetic industry and feeding production, also in the food industry. There is certain complex technology for processing biomass of insect larvae, which affords to isolate many physiologically active substances - chitin, antimicrobial peptides, fatty acids mixture, organic forms of mineral substances, hormones, etc.
The company New Biotechnology (Lipetsk, Russia) has developed a technical process for producing of the protein-lipid preparation (commercial name is Zooprotein) based on the fly larvae of the species Lucilia Caesar. The utilization of food waste as a substrate, unpretentiousness to cultivating environment and high protein content are capable of considering insects of the species Lucilia Caesar as a promising object of cultivation and a reliable, cheap, replenishable source of nutrients for resource-saving process of the feed production.
On the bases of ITMO University, an investigation is being conducted on the qualitative composition of the Zooprotein and the possibility of pet feed application. Cats are the most demanding animals to the quantitative and qualitative composition of protein fractions of feed. In present research an evidence-based calculation of the balance of the Zooprotein composition is presented as a feed component for cats during growth. Accordingly, the unique chemical composition of the development product based on fly larvae Lucilia Caesar makes possible to maintain that it is a promising functional ingredient in feeding rations for various animal species
