Conceptual Problems of the Third Codification of the Legislation on Administrative Offenses
The article deals with problems related to the development of the concept of the new Code of the Russian Federation on Administrative Offenses. Retrospective analysis of the development of the legislation on administrative offenses is conducted, a brief description of the legislation of foreign “Western traditional” countries, regulating similar issues, as well as the legislation of former Republics of the USSR - Belarus, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, which successfully reformed the national legislation on administrative offenses. The Author grades the draft of the Code of Administrative Responsibility and the Code of Administrative Offences submitted to the State Duma in 2014-2015, as well as the initiative concept of the new code, according to which plans are made to start drafting a new bill. According to the Author, the proposed concept needs to be finalized, it does not define the basic idea, purpose and subject of legal regulation, place in the system of the current legislation (especially connection with criminal legislation)

Purpose: The purpose of the article is to determine the role of customs' control and directions of its improvement in the movement of genetically modified foods across the customs' border of the Eurasian Economic Union. In carrying out the study, the authors rely on the methods of theoretical modeling and interpretation of legal concepts and normative legal acts, which allowed to identify theoretical and applied problems of customs control in the conditions of Eurasian integration. Design/Methodology/Approach: The authors define the concepts of genetically modified foods and their turnover, highlight the problems of customs control over the movement of genetically modified foods across the customs border of the Eurasian Economic Union, and propose ways to improve it. Findings: The authors define the concepts of genetically modified foods and their turnover, highlight the problems of customs control over the movement of genetically modified foods across the customs border of the Eurasian Economic Union, and propose ways to improve it. Practical Implications: The results may be implicated into a legal framework of Russian Federation and improve customs' regulation both in Russia and abroad. Originality/Value: The main contribution of this article is the comprehensive analysis of legal and institutional background of genetically modified foods and their cross-border movement in EAEU countries as well as the measures of improving their customs' control.peer-reviewe
Plasma probe characteristics in low density hydrogen pulsed plasmas
Probe theories are only applicable in the regime where the probe's
perturbation of the plasma can be neglected. However, it is not always possible
to know, a priori, that a particular probe theory can be successfully applied,
especially in low density plasmas. This is especially difficult in the case of
transient, low density plasmas. Here, we applied probe diagnostics in
combination with a 2D particle-in-cell model, to an experiment with a pulsed
low density hydrogen plasma. The calculations took into account the full
chamber geometry, including the plasma probe as an electrode in the chamber. It
was found that the simulations reproduce the time evolution of the probe IV
characteristics with good accuracy. The disagreement between the simulated and
probe measured plasma density is attributed to the limited applicability of
probe theory to measurements of low density pulsed plasmas. Indeed, in the case
studied here, probe measurements would lead to a large overestimate of the
plasma density. In contrast, the simulations of the plasma evolution and the
probe characteristics do not suffer from such strict applicability limits.
These studies show that probe theory cannot be justified through probe
measurements
Experimental observation of spontaneous spin polarization of electrons in hybridized states of transition element impurities in semiconductors
Experimental evidence of the possible existence of spontaneous spin polarization of the electron system in hybridized states formed by transition element impurity atoms in the conduction band of semiconducting crystals is examined. The details of a quantitative interpretation of experiments on the temperature dependence of the specific heat and elastic moduli of mercury selenide crystals with iron impurities confirm the feasibility of establishing the presence of electron spin polarization in this type of experiment, as well as the possible existence of polarization in the crystals studied here. Theoretical arguments support the observation of a thermodynamic anomalous Hall effect owing to spontaneously polarized donor electrons from low-concentration impurities. © 2013 AIP Publishing LLC
harmacoeconomic feasibility of using the drug upadacitinib in patients with rheumatoid arthritis in the healthcare system of the Russian Federation
Aim. To assess the pharmacoeconomic feasibility of including the drug upadacitinib in restrictive lists and government funding programs to provide patients with rheumatoid arthritis.Materials and methods. Study Design — Retrospective Analysisof Literary Data. Pharmacoeconomic analysis methods — indirect comparison, clinical-economic analysis (cost-effectiveness analysis) using sensitivity analysis; budget impact analysis using sensitivity analysis. Data on the effectiveness of the analyzed drugs are taken from publications on clinical studies of the compared drugs; on the cost of drugs — the state register of marginal selling prices, data of the manufacturer’s company.Results. According to the results of indirect comparison, with respect to the frequency of achievement of the DAS28 test (CRP) <2.6, the effectiveness of the preparations tofacitinib and baricitinib does not significantly differ — OR = 1.275 (0.842; 1.931). At the same time, the preparation upadacitinib allows to achieve this indicator reliably more effective than the baricitinib — OR = 1.529 (1.021; 2.292) and tofacitinib — OR = 1.95 (1.285; 2.960). Costs for the use of upadacitinib against the background of methotrexate for 52 weeks will amount to 654 983.88 rubles, and will require 4.7 % less costs than the use of tofacitinib or baricitinib against the background of the use of methotrexate (687 217.53 rubles). In an indirect comparison of upadacitinib-baricitinib through the general comparator adalimumab, the effectiveness of upadacitinib with respect to the frequency of achievement of DAS28-CRP <2.6 turned out to be higher than baricitinib per 32.3 %. With indirect comparison of upadacitinib-tofacitinib under the same conditions, the efficiency of upadacitinib is 57.7 % higher than that of tofacitinib. Analysis of the impact on the budget showed that with the inclusion of the drug upadacitinib in the lists of VED and ONLS and a gradual increase in the proportion of patients, receiving upadacitinib instead of tofacitinib and baricitinib in the 1st year before 15 %, in the 2nd year — 30 %, in the 3rd year — 45 % for the group of 2.318 patients for 3 years, the reduction in the budget burden will be 1.4 % or 62.8 million rubles. With the provision of upadacitinib, 100 % of patients from the first year, the budget burden for 3 years will decrease by 4.7 % or 213.1 million rubles in comparison with the current regime.Conclusion. tte drug upadacitinib at a lower course cost has greater effectiveness in achieving clinical remission according to the indicator DAS28-CRP (<2.6), and therefore its use in the conditions of the healthcare system of the Russian Federation for the treatment of patients with rheumatoid arthritis is pharmacoeconomic and expedient
Effect of Fermi-liquid interactions on the low-temperature de Haas - van Alphen oscillations in quasi-two-dimensional conductors
In this work we present the results of theoretical analysis of the de
Haas-van Alphen oscillations in quasi-two-dimensional conductors. We have been
studying the effect of the Fermi-liquid correlations of charge carriers on the
above oscillations. It was shown that at reasonably low temperatures and weak
electron scattering the Fermi-liquid interactions may cause noticeable changes
in both amplitude and shape of the oscillations even at realistically small
values of the Fermi-liquid parameters. Also, we show that the Fermi-liquid
interactions in the system of the charge carriers may cause magnetic
instability of a quasi-two-dimensional conductor near the peaks of quantum
oscillations in the electron density of states at the Fermi surface, indicating
the possibility for the diamagnetic phase transition within the relevant ranges
of the applied magnetic fields.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figure
Dynamics of H atoms surface recombination in low-temperature plasma
The dynamics of H atom recombination on materials of interest for a EUV
lithographer was studied under a longterm low-pressure H2 plasma exposure. The
similarity of the experimental plasma with the typical EUV-induced plasma over
the multi-layer mirrors (MLMs) surface of the EUV lithographic machine is
demonstrated by means of 2D PIC MC simulation. The measurement of the temporal
dynamics of the H atom surface loss probability is chosen for testing the
surface modification during the treatment. Time-resolved actinometry of H atoms
with Kr as the actinometer gas was used to detect the dynamics of the H-atom
loss probability on the surface of Al, Ru, RVS and SiO2. It is demonstrated
that significant changes of the materials surface occur only at the very
beginning of the treatment and ist due to the surface heating and cleaning
effects. After that no changes of the H recombination rate are found,
indicating that the surface stays absolutely stable. A special test of the
sensitivity of the used method to the state of surface was carried out.
Dynamics of the H recombination rate changes with the small O2 addition clearly
demonstrated modification of the Al surface due to oxidation with the next
removal of the oxygen by the H2 plasma treatment. The rate of oxide removal is
shown to be determined by plasma parameters such as the ion energy and flux to
the surface
