Specifics of Compliance-Functions Application in the Sphere of AML/CFT
In the article, the authors consider issues of AML/CFT implementation in a world and Russian practice as a global threat to the national security of states and the world community as a whole. Despite the existence of regulated AML/CFT systems in foreign countries, the events of recent years have shown the necessity for their modernization in accordance with the conditions of global realities. At the same time, domestic experience is reflected in the insolvency of AML/CFT requirements.One of AML/CFT tools is the implementation of compliance functions in the activities of organizations. The authors carried out a complex analysis of the compliance phenomenon in Russian reality, identified and analyzed the main problems of introducing the function studied. Keywords: AML/CFT, compliance function, compliance officer, regulator, credit and non-credit financial organizations, compliance risk
The combined effects of ionizing radiation and weightlessness on calcium and phosphorus content in the mineral fraction of the calcified tissues in the rat skeleton
Phosphorus and calcium content in the ash from skeletal bones (ribs, scapula, vertebra, and crus) of 30 rats exposed to ionizing radiation (800 rads) on the flight of the Kosmos 690 biosatellite was studied. A 10 percent decrease in ash content coefficient and 29 percent decrease in phosphorus content was found immediately after the flight, and a 9 percent decrease in phosphorus content persisted after 26 days of readaptation to terrestrial conditions
Identification of main contributions to conductivity of epitaxial InN
Complex effect of different contributions (spontaneously formed In
nanoparticles, near-interface, surface and bulk layers) on electrophysical
properties of InN epitaxial films is studied. Transport parameters of the
surface layer are determined from the Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations measured
in undoped and Mg-doped InN films at magnetic fields up to 63 T. It is shown
that the In nanoparticles, near-interface and bulk layers play the dominant
role in the electrical conductivity of InN, while influence of the surface
layer is pronounced only in the compensated low-mobility InN:Mg films
IRAS 19135+3937: An SRd variable as interacting binary surrounded by a circumbinary disc
Semi-regular (SR) variables are not a homogeneous class and their variability
is often explained due to pulsations and/or binarity. This study focuses on
IRAS 19135+3937, an SRd variable with an infra-red excess indicative of a dusty
disc. A time-series of high-resolution spectra, UBV photometry as well as a
very accurate light curve obtained by the Kepler satellite, allowed us to study
the object in unprecedented detail. We discovered it to be a binary with a
period of 127 days. The primary has a low surface gravity and an atmosphere
depleted in refractory elements. This combination of properties unambiguously
places IRAS 19135+3937 in the subclass of post-Asymptotic Giant Branch stars
with dusty discs.
We show that the light variations in this object can not be due to
pulsations, but are likely caused by the obscuration of the primary by the
circumbinary disc during orbital motion. Furthermore, we argue that the
double-peaked Fe emission lines provide evidence for the existence of a gaseous
circumbinary Keplerian disc inside the dusty disc. A secondary set of
absorption lines has been detected near light minimum, which we attribute to
the reflected spectrum of the primary on the disc wall, which segregates due to
the different Doppler shift. This corroborates the recent finding that
reflection in the optical by this type of discs is very efficient. The system
also shows a variable Halpha profile indicating a collimated outflow
originating around the companion. IRAS 19135+3937 thus encompasses all the
major emergent trends about evolved disc systems, that will eventually help to
place these objects in the evolutionary context.Comment: Accepted to MNRA
Effect of space flight on sodium, copper, manganese and magnesium content in the skeletal bones
Sodium content decreased in the human skeletal bones and rose in the rat bones following space flight. In man copper content rose in the femoral bone and decreased in the vertebral body and the sternum, but was unchanged in the rest of the bones. Magnesium content was decreased in the femoral bone and the sternum, and in the vertebrae, but remained unchanged in the rest of the bones. Possible mechanisms of the changes detected are discussed
SOCIO-PSYCHOLOGICAL FEATURES OF LONELINESS IN MODERN TEENAGERS
Relevant socio-psychological problem of the emergence of loneliness in modern adolescents has been considered. Living conditions at this moment are characterized by a high level of development of information technologies. As a result, the formation of new thinking, new behavioral strategies, which affect the process of socialization of the individual. It has been noted, that in connection with the intensive digitalization of society, prerequisites arise for the social isolation of an individual subject, the formation of loneliness. This is most evident in the younger generation, as it is more sensitive to social changes. For exploring this phenomenon, an empirical study was conducted of the attitude of adolescents to loneliness and its interrelation with communicative abilities. Psychodiagnostic techniques have been used as research methods: the UCLA solitude scale by D. Russell, L. Peplo, M. Ferguson and the CBS questionnaire. For a quantitative analysis of the obtained data, the Spearman rank correlation coefficient has been used. An analysis of the results allowed us to establish the presence of loneliness in modern adolescents, which is associated with a decrease in their communicative abilities. The results can be used in the practical activities of social psychologists, teachers and educators
