    Meteor velocity distribution and an optimum monitoring mathematical model

    Get PDF
    At present, there are a great number of radio meteor, ionosphere and rocket observation data for the altitude range of 80 to 100 km which indicate the existence of large scale circulation systems in the mesopause to low thermosphere range which change regularly with season and latitude. But the existing observation network and observation programs are not optimal for revealing the main factors forming the circulation mode at these altitudes. A generalized optimum monitoring mathematical model is offered for consideration. The model input data are distribution density, response function, individual measurement root mean square uncertainty and detection effectiveness function. The model makes it possible to obtain the observation distribution density, the minimal possible dispersion and optimized system effectiveness

    Dynamics of Fluxon Lattice in Two Coupled Josephson Junctions

    Full text link
    We study theoretically the dynamics of a fluxon Lattice (FL) in two coupled Josephson junctions. We show that when the velocity of the moving FL exceeds certain values (Va,b)(V_{a,b}), sharp resonances arise in the system which are related to the excitation of the optical and acoustic collective modes. In the interval (Va,Vb)(V_a, V_b) a reconstruction of the FL occurs. We also establish that one can excite localized nonlinear distortions (dislocations) which may propagate through the FL and carry an arbitrary magnetic flux.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, corected typo

    Interaction of hydrogen peroxide molecules with non-specific DNA recognition sites

    Full text link
    Ion beam therapy is one of the most progressive methods in cancer treatment. Studies of the water radiolysis process show that the most long-living species that occur in the medium of a biological cell under the action of ionizing irradiation are hydrogen peroxide (H2_2O2_2) molecules. But the role of H2_2O2_2 molecules in the DNA deactivation of cancer cells in ion beam therapy has not been determined yet. In the present paper, the competitive interaction of hydrogen peroxide and water molecules with atomic groups of non-specific DNA recognition sites (phosphate groups PO4_4) is investigated. The interaction energies and optimized spatial configurations of the considered molecular complexes are calculated with the help of molecular mechanics method and quantum chemistry approach. The results show that the H2_2O2_2 molecule can form a complex with the PO4_4 group (with and without a sodium counterion) that is more energetically stable than the same complex with the water molecule. Formation of such complexes can block genetic information transfer processes in cancer cells and can be an important factor during ion beam therapy treatment

    Spin-polarized Josephson and quasiparticle currents in superconducting spin-filter tunnel junctions

    Get PDF
    We present a theoretical study of the effect of spin-filtering on the Josephson and dissipative quasiparticle currents in a superconducting tunnel junction. By combining the quasiclassical Green's functions and the tunneling Hamiltonian method we describe the transport properties of a generic junction consisting of two superconducting leads with an effective exchange field h separated by a spin-filter insulating barrier. We show that besides the tunneling of Cooper pairs with total spin-projection Sz = 0 there is another contribution to the Josephson current due to equal-spin Cooper pairs. The latter is finite and not affected by the spin-filter effect provided that the fields h and the magnetization of the barrier are non-collinear . We also determine the quasiparticle current for a symmetric junction and show that the differential conductance may exhibit peaks at different values of the voltage depending on the polarization of the spin-filter, and the relative angle between the exchange fields and the magnetization of the barrier. Our findings provide a plausible explanation for existing experiments on Josephson junctions with magnetic barriers, predict new effects and show how spin-polarized supercurrents in hybrid structures can be created.Comment: 5 pages; 3 figure
