A Lagrangian description of a classical particle in a 9-dimensional flat
Finslerian space with a cubic metric function is constructed. The general
solution of equations of motion for such a particle is obtained. The Galilean
law of inertia for the Finslerian space is confirmed.Comment: 10 pages, LaTeX-2e, no figures; added 2 reference
Computation of the minimum eigenvalue for a nonlinear Sturm-Liouville problem
© 2014, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd. A condition for the existence of a minimum eigenvalue corresponding to a positive eigenfunction of the nonlinear eigenvalue problem for an ordinary differential equation is determined. The problem is approximated by a mesh scheme of the finite element method. The convergence of approximate solutions to exact ones is studied. Theoretical results are illustrated by numerical experiments for a model problem
Framework of the Risk Management System in the Sphere of Sanitary-Quarantine Control
Globalization of world economy and politico-economical changes in Russia are the preconditions for the formation of new sanitary-quarantine control methodology based on the identification of risks for sanitary-epidemiological welfare of the population. Considered this, conducted is the analysis of every possible risk with a view to estimation of probability of the events that pose a hazard to sanitary-epidemiological welfare of the population
Non-sequential double ionization below laser-intensity threshold: Anticorrelation of electrons without excitation of parent ion
Two-electron correlated spectra of non-sequential double ionization below
laser-intensity threshold are known to exhibit back-to-back scattering of the
electrons, viz., the anticorrelation of the electrons. Currently, the widely
accepted interpretation of the anticorrelation is recollision-induced
excitation of the ion plus subsequent field ionization of the second electron.
We argue that another mechanism, namely simultaneous electron emission, when
the time of return of the rescattered electron is equal to the time of
liberation of the bounded electron (the ion has no time for excitation), can
also explain the anticorrelation of the electrons in the deep below
laser-intensity threshold regime. Our conclusion is based on the results of the
numerical solution of the time-dependent Schr\"{o}dinger equation for a model
system of two one-dimensional electrons as well as an adiabatic analytic model
that allows for a closed-form solution.Comment: 6 pages and 3 figure
Predictive cartography of metal binders using generative topographic mapping
© 2017, Springer International Publishing AG. Generative topographic mapping (GTM) approach is used to visualize the chemical space of organic molecules (L) with respect to binding a wide range of 41 different metal cations (M) and also to b uild predictive models for stability constants (logK) of 1:1 (M:L) complexes using âdensity maps,â âactivity landscapes,â and âselectivity landscapesâ techniques. A two-dimensional map describing the entire set of 2962 metal binders reveals the selectivity and promiscuity zones with respect to individual metals or groups of metals with similar chemical properties (lanthanides, transition metals, etc). The GTM-based global (for entire set) and local (for selected subsets) models demonstrate a good predictive performance in the cross-validation procedure. It is also shown that the data likelihood could be used as a definition of the applicability domain of GTM-based models. Thus, the GTM approach represents an efficient tool for the predictive cartography of metal binders, which can both visualize their chemical space and predict the affinity profile of metals for new ligands
Creating a database of Russian dialects and prospects for dialectometric studies
© 2016, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.The necessity to transfer from the paper-based Dialectological Atlas of the Russian Language, published 30 years ago, to an electronic database is substantiated. This would make the information contained in the atlas available to a large number of users and ensure on-the-fly information retrieval, isogloss plotting, and finding dialects with a specified set of properties. It would also be possible to use state-of-the-art analytical tools for dialectological data, including mathematical methods, particularly cluster algorithms and multidimensional scaling, widely used in dialectometric studies in the West
Free Boundary Poisson Bracket Algebra in Ashtekar's Formalism
We consider the algebra of spatial diffeomorphisms and gauge transformations
in the canonical formalism of General Relativity in the Ashtekar and ADM
variables. Modifying the Poisson bracket by including surface terms in
accordance with our previous proposal allows us to consider all local
functionals as differentiable. We show that closure of the algebra under
consideration can be achieved by choosing surface terms in the expressions for
the generators prior to imposing any boundary conditions. An essential point is
that the Poisson structure in the Ashtekar formalism differs from the canonical
one by boundary terms.Comment: 19 pages, Latex, amsfonts.sty, amssymb.st
Spectral Properties of Single Crystals of Synthetic Diamond
The half-width of the spectrum of Raman scattering (RS) of the first order of a diamond single crystal grown in a nickel-free system containing nitrogen getters is identical to all growth sectors (1.69 ±
0.02 cmâ1). The sectorial inhomogeneity is not reflected in the transmission spectra and birefringence of this crystal. The nitrogen concentration is 4â
1017 cmâ3. For different growth sectors of the diamond crystal grown in the NiâFeâC system, the half-width of the Raman line varies from 1.74 to 2.08 cmâ1,
differences in the transmission spectra and birefringence are observed, and photoluminescence is revealed. The concentration of nitrogen in the growth sectors {001} is 1.6â
1019 cmâ3, the content of nickel is estimated to be at a level of 1019 cmâ3, and the content of nitrogen in the {111} sectors is 4â
1019 cmâ3
Studies of Immunobiological Properties in <i>Francisella tularensis</i> Vaccine Strain 15 NIIEG under Extended Storage Conditions
Investigated have been 8 cultures of Francisella tularensis strain 15 NIIEG (lyophilized in 1953, 1966, 1969, 1987, 1990, 2003, 2012, and 2013, respectively) stored at the State Collection of Microorganisms of the Scientific Center on Expertise of Medical Application Products. It is established that the majority of cultures has maintained their immunobiological properties. However, it is of note that liophilization does not prevent F. tularensis strain 15 NIIEG from changes in its residual virulence under extended storage. Revealed is the fact that LD50 for 7 cultures of tularemia microbe strain is within the limits of 100-250 microbial cells (m.c.). At the same time, residual virulence for the strain which dates back 1966 is 7.3·105 m.c. Immunogenic activity rates in F. tularensis 15 NIIEG strain cultures range within specified limits. Apart from this, F. tularensis 1987 strain does not comply with the established requirements to the âspecific safetyâ, as subcutaneous inoculation with 5·109 m.c./ml caused death of Guinea pigs within the scheduled observation time. Demonstrated is the necessity in maintaining constant stability of the original immunobiological properties in Francisella tularensis strain 15 NIIEG under extended storage conditions
Incompressible magnetohydrodynamic modes in the thin magnetically twisted flux tube
Context. Observations have shown that twisted magnetic fields naturally occur, and indeed are omnipresent in the Sunâs atmosphere. It
is therefore of great theoretical interest in solar atmospheric waves research to investigate the types of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD)
wave modes that can propagate along twisted magnetic flux tubes.
Aims. Within the framework of ideal MHD, the main aim of this work is to investigate small amplitude incompressible wave modes
of twisted magnetic flux tubes with m â„ 1. The axial magnetic field strength inside and outside the tube will be allowed to vary, to
ensure the results will not be restricted to only cold plasma equilibria conditions.
Methods. The dispersion equation for these incompressible linear MHD wave modes was derived analytically by implementing the
long wavelength approximation.
Results. It is shown, in the long wavelength limit, that both the frequency and radial velocity profile of the m = 1 kink mode are
completely unaffected by the choice of internal background magnetic twist. However, fluting modes with m â„ 2 are sensitive to the
particular radial profile of magnetic twist chosen. Furthermore, due to background twist, a low frequency cut-off is introduced for
fluting modes that is not present for kink modes. From an observational point of view, although magnetic twist does not affect the
propagation of long wavelength kink modes, for fluting modes it will either work for or against the propagation, depending on the
direction of wave travel relative to the sign of the background twist
