Recording 2-D Nutation NQR Spectra by Random Sampling Method
The method of random sampling was introduced for the first time in the nutation nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) spectroscopy where the nutation spectra show characteristic singularities in the form of shoulders. The analytic formulae for complex two-dimensional (2-D) nutation NQR spectra (I = 3/2) were obtained and the condition for resolving the spectral singularities for small values of an asymmetry parameter η was determined. Our results show that the method of random sampling of a nutation interferogram allows significant reduction of time required to perform a 2-D nutation experiment and does not worsen the spectral resolution
Development of functional purpose snacks
The article provides information on the development of new functional snacks based on local traditional and non-traditional raw materials. The uniqueness of the composition of snacks is associated with the presence in the recipe of dry mare's and camel's milk, as well as fruit and vegetable purees, dry strains of lacto and bifidobacteria, fucoidan and other food ingredients with increased nutritional and biological value. Evaluation of the chemical composition of the nutritional and biological value of snacks indicates their targeted antioxidant, detoxifying and immunostimulating properties. Functional snacks are recommended for use by the general public, including climbers, pilots of civil and military aviation, athletes, as well as in emergencies and conditions that adversely affect human health
Laser-driven high-frequency vibrations of metal blister surface
International audienceTime-resolved interferometric microscopy was applied to investigate laser-induced blistering of a titanium film on a silica substrate. Ablation of the titanium/silica interface by single 0.7 ns pulses within a certain fluence range results in local exfoliation of the metal film from the substrate avoiding, however, complete film destruction. Time-dependent transformation of the metal surface profile was reconstructed from the interference patterns within 0-13 ns time delay range. Transverse annular waves with typical amplitude of one hundred of nanometers and estimated traveling speed of few kilometers per second were revealed on the blister surface. The wave occurrence was attributed to fast inhomogeneous bending of the film covering the expanding blister. The resultant high-frequency (similar to 1 GHz) vibrations of the metal surface provide intensive inertial forces when such metalized target is used for blister-based laser-induced forward transfer of nanopowders and organic molecules
