Effect of gravitational acceleration, hypokinesia and hypodynamia on the structure of the intestinal vascular bed
A series of experiments comparing single and combined effects of hypokinesia and gravitational acceleration on morphology of intestinal blood vessels are discussed. Results indicate that hypokinesia has a whole body nonspecific effect reflected even in an organ whose activity shows little or no change due to hypokinesia. In early hypokinetic stages blood redistribution caused anorexia, intestinal atonia, and secretory disruption. Destructive changes from further exposure include aneurisms, varicoses, extravascular movement of blood elements, and vascular wall muscle fiber degeneration. The effect of acceleration is greatest in the ventrodorsal direction. Changes due to acceleration then hypokinesia are like those due to hypokinesia alone; changes due to acceleration before and after hypokinesia are like those due to acceleration. Adaptation raises acceleration tolerance but the effects do not survive four-week hypokinesia
Spatial polarimetry of inhomogeneous surfaces under laser illumination
A study aimed at improving the methods of remote laser polarimetry of inhomogeneous surfaces using complex probe signals with a combined amplitude-phase and polarization modulation has been performed. It is shown that the informative properties of probe signals can be improved that potentially allows for carrying out some operations of forming and processing polarization images of objects in the probe stage. The efficiency of application of the proposed probe signals for recognizing various types of materials is experimentally confirme
Relativistic Coulomb problem for particles with arbitrary half-integer spin
Using relativistic tensor-bispinorial equations proposed in hep-th/0412213 we
solve the Kepler problem for a charged particle with arbitrary half-integer
spin interacting with the Coulomb potential.Comment: Misprints are correcte
Angular variation of the magnetoresistance of the superconducting ferromagnet UCoGe
We report a magnetoresistance study of the superconducting ferromagnet UCoGe.
The data, taken on single-crystalline samples, show a pronounced structure at
~T for a field applied along the ordered moment . Angle
dependent measurements reveal this field-induced phenomenon has an uniaxial
anisotropy. Magnetoresistance measurements under pressure show a rapid increase
of to 12.8~T at 1.0~GPa. We discuss in terms of a field induced
polarization change. Upper critical field measurements corroborate the unusual
S-shaped -curve for a field along the -axis of the orthorhombic
unit cell.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures; accepted for publication in Phys. Rev.
