Professionally focused reading while studying english

Professionally focused reading by students of nonlinguistic specialties has always been a topical issue for University English language teachers. The purpose of the article is to characterize methods of selection and ways of assessment a text as an educational unit in the process of teaching English for specific purposes and in order to form different foreign-language speech activities. The leading method to research this problem is linguistic statistics that allows studying of the quantitative regularities of a natural language, which are shown in texts. The main results of multidimensional linguistic statistics research of texts of technical sublanguages, concerning selection and an assessment of the educational text are stated. The analysis of texts on specialty gives the chance to estimate texts on this or that aspect of complexity or a terminological saturation and to select the text in educational process with a certain methodical focus. Materials of article can be useful for university foreign language teachers

Torsion free groups with indecomposable holonomy group I

We study the torsion free generalized crystallographic groups with the indecomposable holonomy group which is isomorphic to either a cyclic group of order ${p^s}$ or a direct product of two cyclic groups of order ${p}$.Comment: 22 pages, AMS-Te

Solving the problem of credit defaults in retail sector

The article analyzes dynamics of the volume and annual rate of loan delinquency of the country’s population for intermediate quarter dates, compares default retail credit portfolios with similar portfolio of organizations, and determines the main reasons for appearance of population’s debts before banks. It is concluded that it is necessary for banks to focus on development of their own tools and technologies of payment recovery, related to determination of early problematic debt for the purpose of taking preventive measures for preventing the appearance of past-due debts, which is possible under the condition of investing money assets into own analytical and technological tools. An approach to segmentation of debts and factors that could be used as indicators in the process of accompanying and servicing of credits are offered.peer-reviewe

Anisotropic flow fluctuations in hydro-inspired freeze-out model for relativistic heavy ion collisions

The LHC data on event-by-event harmonic flow coefficients measured in PbPb collisions at center-of-mass energy 2.76 TeV per nucleon pair are analyzed and interpreted within the HYDJET++ model. To compare the model results with the experimental data the unfolding procedure is employed. The essentially dynamical origin of the flow fluctuations in hydro-inspired freeze-out approach has been established. It is shown that the simple modification of the model via introducing the distribution over spatial anisotropy parameters permits HYDJET++ to reproduce both elliptic and triangular flow fluctuations and related to it eccentricity fluctuations of the initial state at the LHC energy.Comment: 12 pages including 9 figures as EPS-files; prepared using LaTeX package for publication in the European Physical Journal

Vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia associated with HPV infection: clinical, diagnostic, therapeutic and prophylactic aspects: A review

The analytical review presents data from the world literature, which discusses the relevance of vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia associated with human papillomavirus (uVIN). The incidence of uVIN is steadily increasing, especially in young women, and 1011.2% of cases can progress to vulvar carcinoma. More than 50% of uVIN cases are associated with anogenital diseases associated with the human papillomavirus, which determines the need for a comprehensive assessment and proper treatment of uVIN patients

THE ASSESSMENT OF CLIMATE CHANGE AND WATERSHED EFFECT ON THE HETEROTROPHIC METABOLISM IN THE LAKE ONEGO ECOSYSTEM

Lake Onego, as one of the largest water bodies in a humid zone, is the recipient of terrestrial carbon and plays an important role in the global balance of this element. Due to heterotrophic metabolism in the Lake Onego ecosystem, substantial emissions of carbon dioxide from this lake into the atmosphere can be assumed. However, the extent of this phenomenon is still poorly known. As a climate change has led to an increase in water and organic matter flow into the northern water bodies, the carbon balance study of aquatic ecosystems is of particular relevance. The elements of the water balance for the Lake Onego catchment area in the current climate conditions are assessed. Based on satellite images the model of Lake Onego watershed terrestrial ecosystems is used to simulate the flow of organic matter into the lake with different types of vegetation and topography consideration. The assessment of the benthic communities habitat is carried out taking into account the accumulation of organic matter in various parts of Lake Onego

Cyclic peroxides and related initiating systems for radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate

Cyclic peroxides as initiators for the radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate were proposed. The initial rates, initiation rates, and effective activation energies of polymerization initiated by cyclic peroxides and cyclic peroxide-1-pyridyl-2-ferrocene systems were determined. The radical yields to the volume upon the thermal decomposition of cyclic peroxides and their catalytic decomposition in the presence of 1-pyridyl-2-ferrocene were determined. In combination with 1-pyridyl-2-ferrocene cyclic peroxides form efficient initiating systems favoring an increase in the polymerization rate, a decrease in the molecular weights, and an increase in syndiotacticity of the synthesized poly(methyl methacrylate). © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media New York
