General Relativistic Magnetospheres of Slowly Rotating and Oscillating Magnetized Neutron Stars
We study the magnetosphere of a slowly rotating magnetized neutron star
subject to toroidal oscillations in the relativistic regime. Under the
assumption of a zero inclination angle between the magnetic moment and the
angular momentum of the star, we analyze the Goldreich-Julian charge density
and derive a second-order differential equation for the electrostatic
potential. The analytical solution of this equation in the polar cap region of
the magnetosphere shows the modification induced by stellar toroidal
oscillations on the accelerating electric field and on the charge density. We
also find that, after decomposing the oscillation velocity in terms of
spherical harmonics, the first few modes with are responsible for
energy losses that are almost linearly dependent on the amplitude of the
oscillation and that, for the mode , can be a factor
larger than the rotational energy losses, even for a velocity oscillation
amplitude at the star surface as small as . The results
obtained in this paper clarify the extent to which stellar oscillations are
reflected in the time variation of the physical properties at the surface of
the rotating neutron star, mainly by showing the existence of a relation
between and the oscillation amplitude. Finally, we propose a
qualitative model for the explanation of the phenomenology of intermittent
pulsars in terms of stellar oscillations that are periodically excited by star
glitches.Comment: 13 pages, 4 figures, submitted to MNRA

Модельний аспект оцінки ефективності організації управління та мотивації персоналу
This paper proposes methodological aspects of evaluation of organization efficiency of personnel management and motivation on the bases of application of economic and mathematical tools by implementing a three-component algorithmic model. The structural divisions heads’ work effectiveness evaluation is carried out on the basis of econometric systems of structural equations that allow you to rank personality, communicative, innovative, social and corporate managers characteristics that have the greatest impact on the overall performance indicators of the bank staff among which are considered amount of attracted funds; assessment of employee's compliance with the standard; activity efficiency (number of contracts); contribution to development. The obtained modeling results confirm the hypothesis that structural unit managers need to work on the development of their communicative, innovative, personal and social characteristics. Models for analyzing the personnel motivation factors on the bases of the methodology of multivariate statistical factor analysis with initial list of 13 main indicators of staff motivation are proposed; as a result, we set up the aggregated factors that reflect the properties of several motivational components such as financial, social incentives and medical insurance for employees. The model for estimating influence of motivation factors on results of bank's activity on the bases of nonlinear econometric functions is constructed. The regression equation of the motivation factors influence on the bank total profit is obtained. The proposed model toolkit for evaluation of efficiency of management and staff motivation will allow the bank's management to improve motivation and incentives mechanisms in order to raise efficiency of stuff productivity in direction of increasing bank profitability and competitiveness.У статті запропоновано методологічні аспекти оцінки ефективності організації управління персоналом та мотивації на основі застосування економіко-математичного інструментарію шляхом реалізації трьохкомпонентної алгоритмічної моделі.

Low–fat high–protein fermented milk product with oat extract as a nature stabilizer
Nowadays, the use of plant components in terms of their pronounced functional
properties is of high relevance. Oat extract contains gums, β–glucans, vitamins (A, B1, B5, B9,
PP, H), minerals (Fe, I, K, Si, Mn, Cu, Mo, etc.) and essential amino acids. It has been proven
that a long–term use of β–glucans showed the reduction of the risk of cardiovascular disease and
diabetes and the regulation of cholesterol and blood sugar. β glucans also have immunoprotective,
anti–inflammatory, antimicrobial, prebiotic effects and improve intestinal motility. The aim of
study was to develop the technology of low–fat high–protein fermented milk product with
functional characteristics. Oat extract was used as a natural stabilizer and a source of β–glucans.
Maceration technique was used for the extraction. The recommended extraction parameters were
established and physicochemical characteristics of the extract were studied. The recommended
doses of oat extract when introduced into milk and the optimal heat treatment conditions of the
milk–oat mixture were determined. The influence of temperature on the gel–forming properties
of oat extract was investigated. The effect of oat extract on rheological behavior, water–holding
ability and shelf life of the finished product was studied. Regular consumption of lactic acid
microorganisms has a positive effect on the digestive system and metabolism. Based on the
organoleptic characteristics and physicochemical changes during the fermentation process in
comparison with the control sample (without oat extract), the recommended starter culture
combinations (Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactococcus lactis subsp, Lactobacillus bulgaricus)
were proposed
Optimization of the Composition of Participants in Criminal Pre-Trial Proceedings
Alongside establishing the procedure for criminal proceedings, a primary objective of criminal procedure legislation is to precisely define the legal status and procedural powers of participants in criminal procedure relations. This involves setting the boundaries of their rights and obligations. Accordingly, particular emphasis should be placed on delineating the subject matter of criminal proceedings by devising a plan to enhance their position, role, and procedural status. The aim of the study is to scrutinize legal issues concerning the exercise of procedural powers by various participants in criminal proceedings and to explore avenues for enhancing the composition of criminal pre-trial proceedings. The article delves into matters concerning the procedural role of the investigator and examines their interaction with the procedural leader and the prosecutor. Special attention is paid to the procedural status of the person in respect of whom a crime report is being checked, the problem of criminal prosecution when checking a crime report is revealed, the roles and functions of an educator and a psychologist are investigated. In addition, the author substantiates the idea of expanding the range of participants in the pre-trial stages. The methodological framework of this work encompasses principles from the general scientific method of cognition, including formal logic, generalization, analysis, and description. It also draws upon methodologies from the fields of general theory of law, criminal procedure, criminology, psychology, pedagogy, logic, and other related sciences. As a result, the following conclusions were drawn. When exploring the primary issues concerning the enhancement of participants' procedural status in pre-trial proceedings, the author proposes considering the following provisions: shifting departmental procedural oversight and prosecutorial supervision in favor of the latter and establishing a unified format for preliminary investigation; engaging the suspect at the initial stage of a criminal case; elucidating the purpose and function of involvement by educators and psychologists in the case; broadening the subject composition by granting individual participants procedural petitioner status
Сучасний стан правового регулювання протидії підрозділами кримінальної поліції організованій злочинності загальнокримінальної спрямованості
criminal police units, in particular: legal relations arising between different criminal police units; legal relations arising in the course of realizing operative and search activities; legal relations arising between criminal police units and persons who are subjects of cultivation; legal relations arising between criminal police units and investigator; legal relations arising between criminal police units as a result of internal interaction; legal relations arising while checking compliance with the law within the implementation of operative and search criminal police units’ counteraction organized crime of regulatory authorities; legal relations arising between criminal police units and persons who secretly cooperate with them; legal relations arising between criminal police units as a result of external interaction.
However, considering their legal nature, the author has singled out regulations, which are legal basis for their existence, which include: the Constitution of Ukraine; international and legal acts; codified regulations; laws of Ukraine; subordinate legal acts in the form of decrees of the President of Ukraine and orders of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine; subordinate regulations in the form of inter-ministerial and departmental orders; departmental regulations of closed nature.
As a result of conducted study it has been stated that the current state of legal regulation of operative and search counteraction by criminal police units is characterized by both bilateral and multilateral and diverse in their legal nature legal relations regulated by a large number of legal acts.Визначено правовідносини, що притаманні процесу протидії підрозділами кримінальної поліції організованій злочинності загальнокримінальної спрямованості, та, враховуючи їх правову природу, виокремлено нормативно-правові акти, що є правовим підґрунтям їх існування. В результаті проведеного дослідження констатовано, що сучасний стан правового регулювання оперативно-розшукової протидії підрозділами кримінальної поліції характеризується наявністю як двосторонніх, так і багатосторонніх та різнопланових за своєю юридичною природою правовідносин, які регулюються великою кількістю нормативно-правових актів
Some Features of the Criminal Procedural Status of a Witness
The relevance of the topic is due to the fact that the problems of the procedural position of a witness today need some addition and adjustment, while this particular issue requires special attention in connection with the expansion of the information space and the simplification of access to information contained in the materials of the criminal case of all participants in criminal proceedings. The question of the participation of a lawyer in criminal proceedings in order to provide qualified legal assistance to a witness remains important. In particular, the procedure for involving a lawyer in a criminal case has not been established, his procedural status has not been clearly regulated, and the issue of the possibility and limits of participation of a lawyer in investigative actions conducted with a witness has not been resolved. The purpose of the study is to analyze the legal problems related to the realization by the witness of his rights, the performance of his duties. The article deals with problematic issues related to the procedural status of a witness, analyzes the relevant norms of domestic criminal procedure legislation and the legislation of a number of foreign countries. The methodological basis of the work was the position of the general scientific dialectical method of cognition and the general theory of law, which made it possible to reveal the essence and features of the procedural status of a witness in pretrial criminal proceedings. The work widely uses the comparative legal method, which made it possible to identify the relationship between domestic and foreign legislation in the field of witness immunity. As a result, the following conclusions were made. It seems that it is necessary to provide a witness who has not formally received the status of a suspect or accused with qualified legal assistance on a mandatory basis, in order to protect his legal rights and interests. In addition, part 3 of Art. 56 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, supplementing it with a ban on taking evidence from all persons who, by virtue of their official duties, are its bearers and must keep it
