Influence of Filler Metals in Welding Wires on the Phase and Chemical Composition of Weld Metal

The influence of filler metals used in welding wires on the phase and chemical composition of the metal, which is surfaced to mining equipment exposed to abrasive wear, has been investigated. Under a laboratory environment, samples of Mo-V-B and Cr-Mn-Mo-V wires were made. The performed experiments have revealed that fillers of the Cr-Mn-Mo-V system used in powder wire show better wear resistance of the weld metal than that of the Mn-Mo-V-B system; the absence of boron, which promotes grain refinement in the Mn-Mo-V-B system, significantly reduces wear resistance; the Mn-Mo-V-B weld metal has a finer structure than the Cr-Mn-Mo-V weld metal

Collective modes and the broken symmetry of a rotating attractive Bose gas in an anharmonic trap

We study the rotational properties of an attractively interacting Bose gas in a quadratic + quartic potential. The low-lying modes of both rotational ground state configurations, namely the vortex and the center of mass rotating states, are solved. The vortex excitation spectrum is positive for weak interactions but the lowest modes decrease rapidly to negative values when the interactions become stronger. The broken rotational symmetry involved in the center of mass rotating state induces the appearance of an extra zero-energy mode in the Bogoliubov spectrum. The excitations of the center of mass rotational state also demonstrate the coupling between the center of mass and relative motions.Comment: 4 pages, 3 eps figures (2 in color) v2: changes in Title, all figures, in text (especially in Sec III) and in Reference

Performance of the SAET of the Stavropol Anti-Plague Institute of the Rospotrebnadzor during the XXII Olympic and XI Paralympic Winter Games in Sochi

Given is a general overview of the SAET performance during the XXII Olympic and XI Paralympic Winter Games, 2014 in Sochi. Discussed are the peculiarities of work management of the SAET diagnostic facilities; represented are the data on the structure and scope of laboratory investigations of clinical material and environmental samples. Analyzed is the experience of operation under major international mass event. Consequently, it is concluded that current SAET structure, its stuffing and equipping, the laid-up stock of preparations and test-systems have allowed for coping with a diverse task complex in the laboratory diagnostics of infectious diseases and indication of their agents
