Organic geochemistry of the crater-fill sediments from Boltysh impact crater, Ukraine
The Boltysh impact crater, is a complex structure formed on the basement rocks of the Ukrainian shield which has been dated at 65.17±0.64 Ma [1]. The Boltysh crater has been know for several decades and was originally drilled in the 1960s-1980s in a study of economic oil shale deposits. Unfortunately, the cores were not curated and have been lost. However we have recently re-drilled the impact crater and have recovered a near continuous record of ~400 m of organic rich sediments deposited in a deep isolated lake which overlie the basement rocks spanning a period ~10 Ma. At 24km diameter, Boltysh will not have contributed substantially to the worldwide devastation at the end of the
Cretaceous. However, the precise age of the Boltysh impact relative to the Chicxulub impact and its location on a stable low lying coastal plain which allowed formation of the postimpact crater lake make it a particularly important locality. After the impact, the crater quickly filled with water in a short marine phase but returned to fresh water which persisted for >10Ma [2]. These strata contain a valuable record of Paleogene environmental change in central Europe, and one of very few terrestrial records of the KT event. This pre-eminent record of the Paleogene can help us to answer several related scientific questions including the relative age of Boltysh compared with Chicxulub, recovery from the impact, and later climate signals. The organic geochemistry and playnology indicate main inputs to be algal and higher plant within most of the core although there are some marked changes in inputs in some sections. A number of carbon isotope excursions are also present within the core which are currently being further investigated
PROBLEMS OF IMPLEMENTATION AND HARMONIZATION OF INDIVIDUAL AND CORPORATE INTEREST
Discusses the issue of coordination of interests of participants of economic activities. The designated subjects of the market relations that serve as the basis for the implementation of the market transactions, which are implemented and economic interests, both individual and corporate. The main condition of market making transactions and the realization of the economic interests of both parties - the empowerment of the subjects of the market relations of ownership. Confrontation and negotiation of individual and corporate interests lead to a functioning equilibrium of the market in conditions of free competition. Indicate the objective necessity of the practical use of economic studies to enhance the activity of economic activity of people

Two large meteorite impacts at the Cretaceous–Paleogene boundary
The end-Cretaceous mass extinction has been attributed by most to a single asteroid impact at Chicxulub on the Yucatán Peninsula, Mexico. The discovery of a second smaller crater with a similar age at Boltysh in the Ukraine has raised the possibility that a shower of asteroids or comets impacted Earth close to the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) boundary. Here we present palynological and δ13C evidence from crater-fill sediments in the Boltysh impact crater. Our analyses demonstrate that a post-impact flora, formed on the ejecta layer, was in turn devastated by the K-Pg event. The sequence of floral recovery from the K-Pg event is directly comparable with that in middle North America. We conclude that the Boltysh crater predated Chicxulub by ∼2–5 k.y., a time scale that constrains the likely origin of the bodies that formed the two known K-Pg craters
Features of damage to the ribs by a blade with a defective tip
Stab wounds are a common injury in the practice of a forensic pathologist. Such damage often occurs in domestic conditions, for example, in the kitchen during a quarrel, where knives are always at hand. The young, able-bodied portions of the population are frequent victims, which makes the problem socially significant.
Knives that have been used for a long time are rarely in perfect condition; operational defects occur on them. For example, repeated sharpening results in the rounding of the tip of the blade. Moreover, during operation, the tip of the blade can bend or even break off. However, before studying the effects of such blades on flat bones, studying the history of this issue, to familiarize with the work of other scientists, is necessary.
In the literature review, authors of studies on stab-cut injuries focused more on damage to the skin and clothing. Morphological features of skeletal bone injuries and the possibility of identification studies on them until the XXI century were described poorly.
To improve the forensic medical diagnosis of rib injuries caused by blades with point defects based on the study of a complex of morphological features, experimental studies on cadaveric materials are necessary
Transport Equations from Liouville Equations for Fractional Systems
We consider dynamical systems that are described by fractional power of
coordinates and momenta. The fractional powers can be considered as a
convenient way to describe systems in the fractional dimension space. For the
usual space the fractional systems are non-Hamiltonian. Generalized transport
equation is derived from Liouville and Bogoliubov equations for fractional
systems. Fractional generalization of average values and reduced distribution
functions are defined. Hydrodynamic equations for fractional systems are
derived from the generalized transport equation.Comment: 11 pages, LaTe

The Analysis of Injuries and Mortality Risks Level as a Result of Road Accident in Regions of the Central and Eastern Europe
In the article the analysis of the frequency, traumatism and mortality of road accidents has been carried out at the regional level for the countries of Central and Eastern Europe and has made it possible to draw conclusions regarding certain spatial features of the distribution of these indicators and on the nonrandom nature of the location of their values on maps of the CEE regions featured in the study. On the basis of methods of spatial statistics and econometrics we have demonstrated the existence of a spatial structure in the distribution of the risks and consequences of road accidents in the various regions. Cluster analysis has enabled us to distinguish uniform clusters of regions categorised by the risks, traumatism and mortality rates of road accidents. Based on an analysis of these indicators we have introduced the evaluation of an integrated safety level for regions of the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. This allows us to estimate the complex influence of the risks and their consequences road accidents on the level of safety for certain regions or groups of regions. The results of the research which has been conducted can be used for the improvement of national and regional programs of road and transport safety, and for the development of strategies and actions aimed at reducing the risks and consequences of road accidents in certain regions
Experimenting an optical second with strontium lattice clocks
Progress in realizing the SI second had multiple technological impacts and
enabled to further constraint theoretical models in fundamental physics.
Caesium microwave fountains, realizing best the second according to its current
definition with a relative uncertainty of 2-4x10^(-16), have already been
superseded by atomic clocks referenced to an optical transition, both more
stable and more accurate. Are we ready for a new definition of the second? Here
we present an important step in this direction: our system of five clocks
connects with an unprecedented consistency the optical and the microwave
worlds. For the first time, two state-of-the-art strontium optical lattice
clocks are proven to agree within their accuracy budget, with a total
uncertainty of 1.6x10^(-16). Their comparison with three independent caesium
fountains shows a degree of reproducibility henceforth solely limited at the
level of 3.1x10^(-16) by the best realizations of the microwave-defined second.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figures, 2 table
Fractional Liouville and BBGKI Equations
We consider the fractional generalizations of Liouville equation. The
normalization condition, phase volume, and average values are generalized for
fractional case.The interpretation of fractional analog of phase space as a
space with fractal dimension and as a space with fractional measure are
discussed. The fractional analogs of the Hamiltonian systems are considered as
a special class of non-Hamiltonian systems. The fractional generalization of
the reduced distribution functions are suggested. The fractional analogs of the
BBGKI equations are derived from the fractional Liouville equation.Comment: 20 page
