Methods for estimating the optical constants of atmospheric hazes based on complex optical measurements
The methods of multifrequency laser sounding (MLS) are the most effective remote methods for investigating the atmospheric aerosols, since it is possible to obtain complete information on aerosol microstructure and the effective methods for estimating the aerosol optical constants can be developed. The MLS data interpretation consists in the solution of the set of equations containing those of laser sounding and equations for polydispersed optical characteristics. As a rule, the laser sounding equation is written in the approximation of single scattering and the equations for optical characteristics are written assuming that the atmospheric aerosol is formed by spherical and homogeneous particles. To remove the indeterminacy of equations, the method of optical sounding of atmospheric aerosol, consisting in a joint use of a mutifrequency lidar and a spectral photometer in common geometrical scheme of the optical experiment was suggested. The method is used for investigating aerosols in the cases when absorption by particles is small and indicates the minimum necessary for interpretation of a series of measurements

The paper deals with the analysis of long-term observations of the manganese distribution in the soils of the south-western part of the Central Chernozem region of Russia in the Belgorod regio
Cole-Hopf Like Transformation for Schr\"odinger Equations Containing Complex Nonlinearities
We consider systems, which conserve the particle number and are described by
Schr\"odinger equations containing complex nonlinearities. In the case of
canonical systems, we study their main symmetries and conservation laws. We
introduce a Cole-Hopf like transformation both for canonical and noncanonical
systems, which changes the evolution equation into another one containing
purely real nonlinearities, and reduces the continuity equation to the standard
form of the linear theory. This approach allows us to treat, in a unifying
scheme, a wide variety of canonical and noncanonical nonlinear systems, some of
them already known in the literature. pacs{PACS number(s): 02.30.Jr, 03.50.-z,

Comment on ``the Klein-Gordon Oscillator''
The different ways of description of the particle with oscillator-like
interaction are considered. The results are in conformity with the previous

Nonlinear magnetoinductive waves and domain walls in composite metamaterials
We describe novel physics of nonlinear magnetoinductive waves in left-handed
composite metamaterials. We derive the coupled equations for describing the
propagation of magnetoinductive waves, and show that in the nonlinear regime
the magnetic response of a metamaterial may become bistable. We analyze
modulational instability of different nonlinear states, and also demonstrate
that nonlinear metamaterials may support the propagation of domain walls
(kinks) connecting the regions with the positive and negative magnetization.Comment: 5 pages, 5 figure
HYDRODISSECTION FOR PRESERVATION OF NEUROVASCULAR BUNDLE DURING RADICAL PROSTATECTOMY
Nerve-sparing radical prostatectomy is one of the high-tech operations in urology, and the challenge of the surgeon is not only to remove the prostate tumor, but also to provide a high quality of life. The fact that most questions devoted from patients in a conversation with the surgeon before the operation are devoted to this issue, shows the importance and relevance. At present, the diagnostic methods allow significantly more likely to detect early prostate cancer, making finding and treatment of these patients more affordable and allows to apply this operation.Lately, it seems urgent to explore the possibility of water jet dissection in the field of urology, in particular, for nerve-sparing prostatectomy. Preservation of erectile function depends largely on the quality of separating the neurovascular bundle. Standard use of electrocautery is associated with damage to the neurovascular bundle. When performing operations using water-jet mobilization of prostate the selective dissection of tissue is performed. This avoids injury of neurovascular bundle and further postoperative complications. The use of this technique may allow the surgeon to provide a more accurate mobilization prostate and selectively controlled intersection vessels heading to the prostate from the neurovascular bundle, reduce intraoperative blood loss, maintaining continence, erectile function.This literature review is considered by the experience of using nerve-sparing radical prostatectomy using a water-jet dissector, estimated intraoperative parameters using this method.However, we have the lack of extensive research capabilities of this technique when performing nerve-preserving radical prostatectomy, that does not allow to make a comprehensive presentation on the benefits of this technique and its effects on erectile function and quality of urination, further study of this issue in such a difficult category of patients
