Recycling and disposal of gypsum-containing waste generated in the production of citric acid
The cycle of citric acid production with the formation of gypsum-containing waste was considered and options for processing and utilization of citrogypsum were proposed. The methods obtained include: the use of citrogypsum in the production of building materials, the extraction of rare earth metals, as well as the creation of a high-quality organic-mineral fertilizer, during the creation of which it is possible to reduce the negative effect not only from the accumulation of citrogypsum, but also from manure stored in the filtration field
Features of accumulation of sulfur and phosphorus by phytoremediants from technogenically polluted wastewater of mining enterprises
The article presents data on the accumulation of phosphorus and sulfur in the tissues of phytoremediant plants Phragmites australis (Cav.) Trin. ex Steud., Typha angustifolia L., Typha latifolia L., used for the treatment of technogenically polluted wastewater from mining enterprise
Features in constructing a certificate of strength of extraterrestrial material by the example of the Chelyabinsk meteorite
© 2017, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd. The mechanical properties of various components of the Chelyabinsk meteorite are studied. A measurement technique allowing one to obtain a strength certificate of the material by a minimum necessary number of samples with allowance for defectiveness is developed. Universal expressions for the chondritic component and impact melting have been obtained. The expressions allow one to make general estimates of the strength boundaries for LL type meteorites
Bremsstrahlung in the gravitational field of a cosmic string
In the framework of QED we investigate the bremsstrahlung process for an
electron passing by a straight static cosmic string. This process is precluded
in empty Minkowski space-time by energy and momentum conservation laws. It
happens in the presence of the cosmic string as a consequence of the conical
structure of space, in spite of the flatness of the metric. The cross section
and emitted electromagnetic energy are computed and analytic expressions are
found for different energies of the incoming electron. The energy interval is
divided in three parts depending on whether the energy is just above electron
rest mass , much larger than , or exceeds , with the
string mass per unit length in Planck units. We compare our results with those
of scalar QED and classical electrodynamics and also with conic pair production
process computed earlier.Comment: 21 pages, to appear in Phys. Rev. D., KONS-RGKU-94-0
Evaluation of Anthrax Morbidity Rate in 2012, Prognosis for 2013
Evaluated are epidemiological and epizootiological situations on anthrax in the Russian Federation and around the world in 2012. Displayed is the morbidity rate prognosis for 2013
A Precision Measurement of Nuclear Muon Capture on 3He
The muon capture rate in the reaction mu- 3He -> nu + 3H has been measured at
PSI using a modular high pressure ionization chamber. The rate corresponding to
statistical hyperfine population of the mu-3He atom is (1496.0 +- 4.0) s^-1.
This result confirms the PCAC prediction for the pseudoscalar form factors of
the 3He-3H system and the nucleon.Comment: 13 pages, 6 PostScript figure
The Review of Anthrax Situation 2013, the Forecast for 2014
The analysis of epidemiological and epizootiological situation on anthrax in the Russian Federation and in the world in 2013 is carried out. The forecast of disease for 2014 is presented. Anthrax morbidity in humans in Russia is shown to decrease in 2013 in comparison with that in 2012 (2 cases versus 12). Three anthrax cases are registered in cattle
Zero modes in a system of Aharonov-Bohm fluxes
We study zero modes of two-dimensional Pauli operators with Aharonov--Bohm
fluxes in the case when the solenoids are arranged in periodic structures like
chains or lattices. We also consider perturbations to such periodic systems
which may be infinite and irregular but they are always supposed to be
sufficiently scarce
Observation of an Excited Bc+ State
Using pp collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 8.5 fb-1 recorded by the LHCb experiment at center-of-mass energies of s=7, 8, and 13 TeV, the observation of an excited Bc+ state in the Bc+Ï+Ï- invariant-mass spectrum is reported. The observed peak has a mass of 6841.2±0.6(stat)±0.1(syst)±0.8(Bc+) MeV/c2, where the last uncertainty is due to the limited knowledge of the Bc+ mass. It is consistent with expectations of the Bcâ(2S31)+ state reconstructed without the low-energy photon from the Bcâ(1S31)+âBc+Îł decay following Bcâ(2S31)+âBcâ(1S31)+Ï+Ï-. A second state is seen with a global (local) statistical significance of 2.2Ï (3.2Ï) and a mass of 6872.1±1.3(stat)±0.1(syst)±0.8(Bc+) MeV/c2, and is consistent with the Bc(2S10)+ state. These mass measurements are the most precise to date
