The Study of Anisotropy and Domain Condition of Permalloy Thin Films
Hysteretic Loops, 1,5; 3,0; 4,5; 6 and 10 nm in thickness, obtained by magnetron sputtering of Ni81Fe19 alloy, were measured by means of vibration magnetometer. It has been detected that by increasing the film thickness from 3 to 10 nm coercive force (HC) increases as well. In the direction perpendicular to the axis of easy magnetization the loop form considerably differs from the right-angled one, which is caused by amplitude dispersion of anisotropy. The films, derived in scattered magnetic field of the Earth, are by magnetic parameter isotropic. The results of atomic force microscope investigation indicate to the granular structure of films and confirms the presence of non-magnetized areas among the examined films. The critical thickness at which permalloy films pass from multi-domain to single-domain state was 10 nm. Estimation of the critical thickness of the transition from single-domain state to superparamagnetic led to the values of 1.5-2 nm.

Classification of voting algorithms for N-version software
A voting algorithm in N-version software is a crucial component that evaluates the execution of each of the N versions and determines the correct result. Obviously, the result of the voting algorithm determines the outcome of the N-version software in general. Thus, the choice of the voting algorithm is a vital issue. A lot of voting algorithms were already developed and they may be selected for implementation based on the specifics of the analysis of input data. However, the voting algorithms applied in N-version software are not classified. This article presents an overview of classic and recent voting algorithms used in N-version software and the authors' classification of the voting algorithms. Moreover, the steps of the voting algorithms are presented and the distinctive features of the voting algorithms in Nversion software are defined. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd
Development of a Momentum Determined Electron Beam in the 1 -45 GeV Range
A beam line for electrons with energies in the range of 1 to 45 GeV, low
contamination of hadrons and muons and high intensity up to 10^6 per
accelerator spill at 27 GeV was setup at U70 accelerator in Protvino, Russia. A
beam tagging system based on drift chambers with 160 micron resolution was able
to measure relative electron beam momentum precisely. The resolution sigma_p p
was 0.13% at 45 GeV where multiple scattering is negligible. This test beam
setup provided the possibility to study properties of lead tungstate crystals
(PbWO_4) for the BTeV experiment at Fermilab.Comment: 12 pages, 8 figures; work done by the BTeV Electromagnetic

Exact 2-point function in Hermitian matrix model
J. Harer and D. Zagier have found a strikingly simple generating function for
exact (all-genera) 1-point correlators in the Gaussian Hermitian matrix model.
In this paper we generalize their result to 2-point correlators, using Toda
integrability of the model. Remarkably, this exact 2-point correlation function
turns out to be an elementary function - arctangent. Relation to the standard
2-point resolvents is pointed out. Some attempts of generalization to 3-point
and higher functions are described.Comment: 31 pages, 1 figur
Design and performance of LED calibration system prototype for the lead tungstate crystal calorimeter
A highly stable monitoring system based on blue and red light emitting diodes
coupled to a distribution network comprised of optical fibers has been
developed for an electromagnetic calorimeter that uses lead tungstate crystals
readout with photomultiplier tubes. We report of the system prototype design
and on the results of laboratory tests. Stability better than 0.1% (r.m.s.) has
been achieved during one week of prototype operation.Comment: 10 pages, 6 figures, LaTeX2
Effects of Deuterium Implantation Dose on Hardness and Deuterium Desorption Temperature Range from High Entropy TiVZrNbHf and TiVZrNbHfN Coatings
High entropy TiVZrNbHf and TiVZrNbHfN coatings prepared by filtered vacuum arc plasma from a single
equiatomic HEA cathode. Similarly were obtained titanium and titanium nitride coatings. The structure
of coatings was investigated by X-ray analysis and the changes in nanohardness by nanoindentation method.
The effusion of the implanted deuterium was studied by thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS).
It is shown that the structure of effusion spectrum is a function of deuterium dose. With increasing implantation
dose deuterium desorption temperature range from coatings is expanding in the direction of
lowering the temperature and the temperature of the peak maximum gas emission gradually shifts to lower
temperatures. For nitride coatings deuterium desorption starts at about room temperature and the maximum
rate of desorption at a temperature of ~500 K.
When irradiation doses more than 5×1017 D/cm2 hardness of nitride coatings decreased by half. Hardness
reduction of coatings is caused by occurrence hydride structural formations in coatings.

Study of Radiation Damage in Lead Tungstate Crystals Using Intense High Energy Beams
We report on the effects of radiation on the light output of lead tungstate
crystals. The crystals were irradiated by pure, intense high energy electron
and hadron beams as well as by a mixture of hadrons, neutrons and gammas. The
crystals were manufactured in Bogoroditsk, Apatity (both Russia), and Shanghai
(China). These studies were carried out at the 70-GeV proton accelerator in
Protvino
Comparison of Radiation Damage in Lead Tungstate Crystals under Pion and Gamma Irradiation
Studies of the radiation hardness of lead tungstate crystals produced by the
Bogoroditsk Techno-Chemical Plant in Russia and the Shanghai Institute of
Ceramics in China have been carried out at IHEP, Protvino. The crystals were
irradiated by a 40-GeV pion beam. After full recovery, the same crystals were
irradiated using a -ray source. The dose rate profiles along
the crystal length were observed to be quite similar. We compare the effects of
the two types of radiation on the crystals light output.Comment: 10 pages, 8 figures, Latex 2e, 28.04.04 - minor grammatical change
