In-Plane Spectral Weight Shift of Charge Carriers in YBa2Cu3O6.9YBa_2Cu_3O_{6.9}

The temperature dependent redistribution of the spectral weight of the $CuO_2$ plane derived conduction band of the $YBa_2Cu_3O_{6.9}$ high temperature superconductor (T_c = 92.7 K) was studied with wide-band (from 0.01 to 5.6 eV) spectroscopic ellipsometry. A superconductivity - induced transfer of the spectral weight involving a high energy scale in excess of 1 eV was observed. Correspondingly, the charge carrier spectral weight was shown to decrease in the superconducting state. The ellipsometric data also provide detailed information about the evolution of the optical self-energy in the normal and superconducting states

GENETIC CONTROL OF ULTRA-EARLINESS IN CHINESE BARLEY LANDRACES

Ultra-early maturity of the Chinese barley landraces k-15881 (Hordeum vulgare L. var. coeleste L.) and k-15882 (var. nudipyramidatum Koern.) from VIR’s barley collection is controlled by three identical recessive genes. This homozygous genotype determines the period from shoot emergence to heading =32 days, with two recessives genes =36 days, and with one =40 days. One dominant allele of the gene contributes approximately 4 days to the earliness. New breeding source material with different times of heading to develop adaptable cultivars may be obtained by crossing these forms with later maturing commercial cultivars

Developing donors of ultra-early maturity in barley

Background. The length of the growing season is a limiting factor in many regions with unstable climatic conditions. The development of ultra-early barley donors makes it possible to accelerate the breeding process aimed at producing commercial cultivars adapted to cultivation area requirements.Materials and methods. The donors Kibel, Kibel uluchshenny, Kibtsel and Kibkor were obtained through individual selection of barley forms combining earliness and productivity from the hybrid combination Belogorsky × k-15881. The experiments were carried out according to the approved guidelines. Yield components were used to calculate the index of productivity for the donors versus the reference cv. ‘Belogorsky’.Results and conclusions. Earliness is controlled in the donors by three recessive genes. The donors’ period from emergence to heading was 7–9 days shorter than that of the reference cv. ‘Belogorsky’, with a low norm of reaction, which attested to their high adaptability. The resulting barley forms were highly resistant to lodging. The donor Kibel uluchshenny in all spike yield components did not differ from the reference. The other donors were close to the reference in spike length and 1000 seed weight. The example of Kibel uluchshenny was used to demonstrate the possibility of producing barley forms combining high earliness and good productivity. The developed donors may prove useful in the breeding for earliness in the areas where the length of the growing season is a limiting factor

ASSESSMENT OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION OF RUSSIAN BANKS AND WAYS TO IMPROVE

The indicators, necessary for the improvement of the system of assessment of the financial condition of the banks of Russia, have been analyzed. The reasons of inefficient assessment of the bank’s activity results and the resulting negative consequences have been considered. The hypothesis about the necessity of application of methods of forecasting at acceptance of strategically important administrative decisions and expert estimation of a current situation for avoidance of the critical situations, leading to bankruptcy and insolvency in the sphere of bank activity has been put forward. The main causes of crisis situations occurrence, taking into account the dynamics of external and internal indicators, have been considered. A list of indicators, consisting of two groups that should be taken into account when assessing the financial condition of Russian banks, has been presented. Despite the apparent transparency of the indicators under study, a practical problem of forming a single methodology arises, that would lead to a significant increase in the adequacy of assessment of the performance of Russian banks

METHODOLOGICAL APPROACHES TO EVALUATING BEER AND NON-ALCOHOLIC PRODUCTS SHELF LIFE

The article discusses the relevance of developing methodological approaches to the beer and soft drinks accelerated aging method in the market. The controlled indicators selection principles, mainly affecting the quality of the finished product, and the basic equation describing the dependence of changes in indicators on the main temperature factor are given. Studies of the influence of various physical factors (temperatures in the range of 50–60 °C, UV-radiation), both individually and jointly, on the physicochemical and organoleptic characteristics of packaged water for various experimental versions did not show statistically significant changes in the normalized parameters of the basic salt and microelement composition investigated water during storage. The optimal mode of accelerated «aging» of packaged water at an elevated temperature (up to 60 °C) and UV-radiation was established. In the case of soft drinks, thermostating was used when changing the temperature regimes (heat 50 ± 2 °C / cold 6 ± 2 °C) at an exposure time of 30 days, which made it possible to observe a decrease in taste and aroma compared with the control, as well as a decrease in sweetness and the appearance of a slight plastic taste for non-carbonated drink. The influence a temperature regime change on brewing products, which cannot be estimated using the existing method due to the high turbidity, is shown.The article discusses the relevance of developing methodological approaches to the beer and soft drinks accelerated aging method in the market.

Special aspects of managers and employees’ responsibility structure

The relevance of the research problem due to the fact that society needs people who are able to make their own decisions and take responsibility for their choices, but often there are situations when leaders are not able to delegate responsibility, and employees in turn do not want to take it. The article aims to study the differences in the structure of responsibility of managers and employees’ responsibility, analysis of interrelations of components of responsibility with motivation. Leading methods to the study of this problem is a psycho-diagnostic method and method of mathematical statistics (Pearson correlation analysis, factor analysis - multivariate statistical method used for studying relationships between values of variables). Processing of empirical data was conducted using SPSS programs. In the result of the study obtained significant differences in the structure of managers and employees’ responsibility described the relationship of components of responsibility with motivation. The article can be useful to psychologists, staff managers and administrative managers. © 2016 Mukhlynina et al
