ВІДЧУТТЯ ЗАГРОЗИ БЕЗПЕЦІ У КОНТЕКСТІ МІГРАЦІЙНИХ ПРОЦЕСІВ В УКРАЇНІ
Abstract. The problems of refugees and migrants are a topical issue in world politics. Ukraine is a country of destination and transit for those who need international protection, as well as economic migrants willing to enter the European Union. Migration processes are characterized by many aspects, including: political, economic, security, social, educational and scientific ones. The article studies the attitude of Ukrainian youth towards immigrants, in particular refugees, in the context of a hypothetical threat to public safety and order. The level of social distance to forced immigrants and its impact on the sense of safety threat due to the presence of refugees in Ukraine were determined for this purpose. The research uses the conceptual concept of social distance of Emory Bogardus. The results obtained confirmed the close link between the level of social distance to immigrants and the sense of safety threat associated with the possible presence of refugees in Ukraine. The level of social distance in relation to immigrants was considered in the context of 25 nationalities and in relation to five social roles, such as: a citizen of the country, a neighbour, an employee, a partner of permanent residence of refugees on the territory of Ukraine. A questionnaire of student youth of Lviv State University of Life Safety was chosen as an empirical method of research.Анотація. Проблеми біженців і мігрантів є актуальним питанням світової політики. Україна є країною призначення та транзиту для осіб, які потребують міжнародного захисту, а також економічних мігрантів, які їдуть на роботу до Європейського Союзу. Міграційні процеси характеризуються багатьма аспектами, серед яких: політичні, економічні, безпекові, соціальні, освітні та наукові. Метою роботи є вивчення ставлення української молоді до іммігрантів, зокрема біженців, в контексті гіпотетичної загрози громадській безпеці та порядку. Для цього було визначено рівень соціальної дистанції до вимушених іммігрантів та його вплив на відчуття загрози безпеці через присутність біженців в Україні. У дослідженні використано концептуальне поняття соціальної дистанції Еморі Богардуса. Отримані результати підтвердили тісний зв'язок між рівнем соціальної дистанції до іммігрантів та відчуттям загрози безпеці, пов'язаної з можливою присутністю біженців в Україні. Рівень соціальної дистанції до іммігрантів було розглянуто в контексті 25 національностей та у п’яти соціальних ролях, таких як: громадянин країни, сусід, співробітник, чоловік/дружина, опікун дитини. В якості емпіричного методу дослідження вибрано анкетування студентської молоді Львівського державного університету безпеки життєдіяльності

On magnetic fluctuation spectra in the solar wind and the influence of mode dispersion
Magnetic fluctuation power spectra in the solar wind are commonly observed to have a power-law form with a spectral index s = 5/3 at frequencies lower than about 1 Hz. This characteristic feature of magnetic fluctuation spectra defines what is called the inertial range and may be described, in wavenumber space, by Kolmogorov diffusion. For higher frequencies, it has been suggested that collisionless damping of Alfven and magnetosonic waves leads to steeper power-laws; this regime is sometimes labeled as the dissipation range. Here we argue, based on numerical calculations, that it is more likely that the observed steeper power-laws result from an increase in the wavenumber diffusion rate caused by whistler-like dispersion than from collision-less damping. The calculations lead to the prediction, that this broken power-law feature of magnetic fluctuation spectra is only observable in low-{beta}{sub p} plasmas
Multiscaling of galactic cosmic ray flux
Multiscaling analysis of differential flux dissipation rate of galactic
cosmic rays (Carbon nuclei) is performed in the energy ranges: 56.3-73.4
Mev/nucleon and 183.1-198.7 MeV/nucleon, using the data collected by ACE/CRIS
spacecraft instrument for 2000 year. The analysis reveals strong
(turbulence-like) intermittency of the flux dissipation rate for the short-term
intervals: 1-30 hours. It is also found that type of the intermittency can be
different in different energy ranges
Space-filter techniques for quasi-neutral hybrid-kinetic models
The space-filter approach has proved a fundamental tool in studying
turbulence in neutral fluids, providing the ability to analyze scale-to-scale
energy transfer in configuration space. It is well known that turbulence in
plasma presents challenges different from neutral fluids, especially when the
scale of interests include kinetic effects. The space-filter approach is still
largely unexplored for kinetic plasma. Here we derive the space-filtered (or,
equivalently "coarse-grained") equations in configuration space for a
quasi-neutral hybrid-kinetic plasma model, in which ions are fully kinetic and
electrons are a neutralizing fluid. Different models and closures for the
electron fluid are considered, including finite electron-inertia effects and
full electrons' pressure-tensor dynamics. Implications for the cascade of
turbulent fluctuations in real space depending on different approximations are
discussed.Comment: 43 pages, 2 figure
Spectral Formation in X-Ray Pulsars: Bulk Comptonization in the Accretion Shock
Accretion-powered X-ray pulsars are among the most luminous X-ray sources in
the Galaxy. However, despite decades of theoretical and observational work
since their discovery, no satisfactory model for the formation of the observed
X-ray spectra has emerged. In particular, the previously available theories are
unable to reproduce the power-law variation observed at high energies in many
sources. In this paper, we present the first self-consistent calculation of the
spectrum emerging from a pulsar accretion column that includes an explicit
treatment of the energization occurring in the shock. Using a rigorous
eigenfunction expansion method based on the exact dynamical solution for the
velocity profile in the column, we obtain a closed-form expression for the
Green's function describing the upscattering of radiation injected into the
column from a monochromatic source located at the top of the thermal mound,
near the base of the flow. The Green's function is convolved with a Planck
distribution to calculate the radiation spectrum resulting from the
reprocessing of blackbody photons emitted by the thermal mound. We demonstrate
that the energization of the photons in the shock naturally produces an X-ray
spectrum with a power-law shape at high energies and a blackbody shape at low
energies, in agreement with many observations of accreting X-ray pulsars.Comment: Accepted for publication in Ap
Kinetic Turbulence
The weak collisionality typical of turbulence in many diffuse astrophysical
plasmas invalidates an MHD description of the turbulent dynamics, motivating
the development of a more comprehensive theory of kinetic turbulence. In
particular, a kinetic approach is essential for the investigation of the
physical mechanisms responsible for the dissipation of astrophysical turbulence
and the resulting heating of the plasma. This chapter reviews the limitations
of MHD turbulence theory and explains how kinetic considerations may be
incorporated to obtain a kinetic theory for astrophysical plasma turbulence.
Key questions about the nature of kinetic turbulence that drive current
research efforts are identified. A comprehensive model of the kinetic turbulent
cascade is presented, with a detailed discussion of each component of the model
and a review of supporting and conflicting theoretical, numerical, and
observational evidence.Comment: 31 pages, 3 figures, 99 references, Chapter 6 in A. Lazarian et al.

Cirurgia para o controle de danos: Sua evolução durante os últimos 20 anos
In less than twenty years, what began as a concept for the treatment of exsanguinating truncal trauma patients has become the primary treatment model for numerous emergent, life threatening surgical conditions incapable of tolerating traditional methods. Its core concepts are relative straightforward and simple in nature: first, proper identification of the patient who is in need of following this paradigm; second, truncation of the initial surgical procedure to the minimal necessary operation; third, aggressive, focused resuscitation in the intensive care unit; fourth, definitive care only once the patient is optimized to tolerate the procedure. These simple underlying principles can be molded to a variety of emergencies, from its original application in combined major vascular and visceral trauma to the septic abdomen and orthopedics. A host of new resuscitation strategies and technologies have been developed over the past two decades, from permissive hypotension and damage control resuscitation to advanced ventilators and hemostatic agents, which have allowed for a more focused resuscitation, allowing some of the morbidity of this model to be reduced. The combination of the simple, malleable paradigm along with better understanding of resuscitation has proven to be a potent blend. As such, what was once an almost lethal injury (combined vascular and visceral injury) has become a survivable one
