Effective Coupling for Open Billiards
We derive an explicit expression for the coupling constants of individual
eigenstates of a closed billiard which is opened by attaching a waveguide. The
Wigner time delay and the resonance positions resulting from the coupling
constants are compared to an exact numerical calculation. Deviations can be
attributed to evanescent modes in the waveguide and to the finite number of
eigenstates taken into account. The influence of the shape of the billiard and
of the boundary conditions at the mouth of the waveguide are also discussed.
Finally we show that the mean value of the dimensionless coupling constants
tends to the critical value when the eigenstates of the billiard follow
random-matrix theory
The Poisson bracket compatible with the classical reflection equation algebra
We introduce a family of compatible Poisson brackets on the space of polynomial matrices, which contains the reflection equation algebra bracket.
Then we use it to derive a multi-Hamiltonian structure for a set of integrable
systems that includes the Heisenberg magnet with boundary conditions, the
generalized Toda lattices and the Kowalevski top.Comment: 13 pages, LaTeX with AmsFont
Reducing nonideal to ideal coupling in random matrix description of chaotic scattering: Application to the time-delay problem
We write explicitly a transformation of the scattering phases reducing the
problem of quantum chaotic scattering for systems with M statistically
equivalent channels at nonideal coupling to that for ideal coupling. Unfolding
the phases by their local density leads to universality of their local
fluctuations for large M. A relation between the partial time delays and
diagonal matrix elements of the Wigner-Smith matrix is revealed for ideal
coupling. This helped us in deriving the joint probability distribution of
partial time delays and the distribution of the Wigner time delay.Comment: 4 pages, revtex, no figures; published versio

Молекулярный анализ гена GID1 у Dasypyrum villosum и создание ДНК-маркера для его идентификации
Dasypyrum villosum is an annual cereal used as a donor of agronomic traits for wheat. Productivity is one of the most important traits that breeding is aimed at. It is a very complex trait, the formation of which is influenced by many different factors, both internal (the genotype of the plant) and external. The genes responsible for the gibberellin sensitivity played a large role in multiplying yields of cereal crops. Another such gene is the Gid1, which encodes a receptor for gibberellins. This article compares the DNA sequences of the Gid1 gene obtained from six Dasypyrum villosum samples. Using a sequence of wheat and rye taken from the GenBank database (NCBI), we selected primers for regions of different genomes (A, B, and D subgenomes of wheat and the R genome of rye), and carried out a polymerase chain reaction on D. villosum accessions of diverse geographical origin. The resulting PCR product was sequenced by an NGS method. Based on the assembled sequences, DNA markers have been created that make it possible to differentiate these genes of the V genome and homologous genes of wheat origin. Using monosomic addition, substitution, and translocation wheat lines, the localization of the Gid1 gene of D. villosum was established on the long arm of the first V chromosome. A phenotypic assessment of common wheat lines carrying substituted, translocated, or added D. villosum chromosomes in their karyotype was performed. Tendency of disappearance of the first chromosome of D. villosum in the lines with added chromosomes was revealed.Dasypyrum villosum (VV) - однолетний злак, зарекомендовавший себя в качестве донора хозяйственно-ценных признаков для пшеницы. Один из важнейших показателей, на который направлена селекция,- урожайность, являющаяся сложным, комплексным признаком. На его формирование влияет множество различных факторов. Большую роль в росте урожайности злаковых культур сыграли гены, регулирующие физиологический ответ растений на гиббереллины, одним из которых стал ген Gid1 , являющийся рецептором активных форм этих фитогормонов. Приведено сравнение частичных ДНК-последовательностей гена Gid1 , секвенированных у двух образцов Dasypyrum villosum . Используя последовательности пшеницы и ржи, взятые из базы данных GenBank (NCBI), подобрали праймеры на участки разных геномов (субгеномы А, В и D пшеницы и геном R ржи) и провели полимеразную цепную реакцию на образцах дазипирума мохнатого различного происхождения. Полученный ПЦР-продукт был секвенирован методом NGS. На основе секвенированных нуклеотидных последовательностей создан ДНК-маркер, позволяющий дифференцировать данные гены генома V и гомологичные гены пшеничного происхождения. С использованием моносомно-дополненных, замещенных и транслоцированных линий пшеницы впервые установлена локализация гена Gid1 на хромосомах Dasypyrum villosum . Показано расположение данного гена на длинном плече первой хромосомы генома V (1VL). Проведена фенотипическая оценка линий мягкой пшеницы, имеющих в своем кариотипе замещенные, транслоцированные или дополненные хромосомы Dasypyrum villosum
Search for narrow resonances in e+ e- annihilation between 1.85 and 3.1 GeV with the KEDR Detector
We report results of a search for narrow resonances in e+ e- annihilation at
center-of-mass energies between 1.85 and 3.1 GeV performed with the KEDR
detector at the VEPP-4M e+ e- collider. The upper limit on the leptonic width
of a narrow resonance Gamma(R -> ee) Br(R -> hadr) < 120 eV has been obtained
(at 90 % C.L.)
Measurement of \Gamma_{ee}(J/\psi)*Br(J/\psi->e^+e^-) and \Gamma_{ee}(J/\psi)*Br(J/\psi->\mu^+\mu^-)
The products of the electron width of the J/\psi meson and the branching
fraction of its decays to the lepton pairs were measured using data from the
KEDR experiment at the VEPP-4M electron-positron collider. The results are
\Gamma_{ee}(J/\psi)*Br(J/\psi->e^+e^-)=(0.3323\pm0.0064\pm0.0048) keV,
\Gamma_{ee}(J/\psi)*Br(J/\psi->\mu^+\mu^-)=(0.3318\pm0.0052\pm0.0063) keV.
Their combinations
\Gamma_{ee}\times(\Gamma_{ee}+\Gamma_{\mu\mu})/\Gamma=(0.6641\pm0.0082\pm0.0100)
keV,
\Gamma_{ee}/\Gamma_{\mu\mu}=1.002\pm0.021\pm0.013 can be used to improve
theaccuracy of the leptonic and full widths and test leptonic universality.
Assuming e\mu universality and using the world average value of the lepton
branching fraction, we also determine the leptonic \Gamma_{ll}=5.59\pm0.12 keV
and total \Gamma=94.1\pm2.7 keV widths of the J/\psi meson.Comment: 7 pages, 6 figure
Measurement of main parameters of the \psi(2S) resonance
A high-precision determination of the main parameters of the \psi(2S)
resonance has been performed with the KEDR detector at the VEPP-4M e^{+}e^{-}
collider in three scans of the \psi(2S) -- \psi(3770) energy range. Fitting the
energy dependence of the multihadron cross section in the vicinity of the
\psi(2S) we obtained the mass value
M = 3686.114 +- 0.007 +- 0.011 ^{+0.002}_{-0.012} MeV and the product of the
electron partial width by the branching fraction into hadrons \Gamma_{ee}*B_{h}
= 2.233 +- 0.015 +- 0.037 +- 0.020 keV.
The third error quoted is an estimate of the model dependence of the result
due to assumptions on the interference effects in the cross section of the
single-photon e^{+}e^{-} annihilation to hadrons explicitly considered in this
work.
Implicitly, the same assumptions were employed to obtain the charmonium
leptonic width and the absolute branching fractions in many experiments.
Using the result presented and the world average values of the electron and
hadron branching fractions, one obtains the electron partial width and the
total width of the \psi(2S):
\Gamma_{ee} =2.282 +- 0.015 +- 0.038 +- 0.021 keV,
\Gamma = 296 +- 2 +- 8 +- 3 keV.
These results are consistent with and more than two times more precise than
any of the previous experiments
Multimessenger astronomy with the Einstein Telescope
Gravitational waves (GWs) are expected to play a crucial role in the
development of multimessenger astrophysics. The combination of GW observations
with other astrophysical triggers, such as from gamma-ray and X-ray satellites,
optical/radio telescopes, and neutrino detectors allows us to decipher science
that would otherwise be inaccessible. In this paper, we provide a broad review
from the multimessenger perspective of the science reach offered by the third
generation interferometric GW detectors and by the Einstein Telescope (ET) in
particular. We focus on cosmic transients, and base our estimates on the
results obtained by ET's predecessors GEO, LIGO, and Virgo.Comment: 26 pages. 3 figures. Special issue of GRG on the Einstein Telescope.

Active Brownian Particles. From Individual to Collective Stochastic Dynamics
We review theoretical models of individual motility as well as collective
dynamics and pattern formation of active particles. We focus on simple models
of active dynamics with a particular emphasis on nonlinear and stochastic
dynamics of such self-propelled entities in the framework of statistical
mechanics. Examples of such active units in complex physico-chemical and
biological systems are chemically powered nano-rods, localized patterns in
reaction-diffusion system, motile cells or macroscopic animals. Based on the
description of individual motion of point-like active particles by stochastic
differential equations, we discuss different velocity-dependent friction
functions, the impact of various types of fluctuations and calculate
characteristic observables such as stationary velocity distributions or
diffusion coefficients. Finally, we consider not only the free and confined
individual active dynamics but also different types of interaction between
active particles. The resulting collective dynamical behavior of large
assemblies and aggregates of active units is discussed and an overview over
some recent results on spatiotemporal pattern formation in such systems is
given.Comment: 161 pages, Review, Eur Phys J Special-Topics, accepte
