Magnetoresistivity Dynamics in Microfine Graphite under Pressure
The basal plane resistivity of packed pyrolytic graphite was measured as a function of temperature,
high hydrostatic pressure up to 1,6 GPa and magnetic fields up to 1 T. Our graphite sample shows a transition
from negative magnetoresistivity at some low temperatures to positive one with the temperature
growing. Resistivity behaviur suggests for ordering transition about 0,5 GPa. Pressure over the ordering
transition suppresses magnetoresistivity of both signs and shifts zero magnetoresistivity point to the lowest
temperatures. All of the effects are of elastic character – no change with high accuracy in the resistivity
dependencies after unloading to normal pressure can be detected.

Wavefront and ray-density plots using seventh-order matrices
The optimization of an optical system benefits greatly from a study of its
aberrations and an identification of each of its elements' contribution to the
overall aberration figures. The matrix formalism developed by one of the
authors was the object of a previous paper and allows the expression of
image-space coordinates as high-order polynomials of object-space coordinates.
In this paper we approach the question of aberrations, both through the
evaluation of the wavefront evolution along the system and its departure from
the ideal spherical shape and the use of ray density plots. Using seventh-order
matrix modeling, we can calculate the optical path between any two points of a
ray as it travels along the optical system and we define the wavefront as the
locus of the points with any given optical path; the results are presented on
the form of traces of the wavefront on the tangential plane, although the
formalism would also permit sagital plane plots. Ray density plots are obtained
by actual derivation of the seventh-order polynomials.Comment: 15 pages, 5 figure
Stability of the self-phase-locked pump-enhanced singly resonant parametric oscillator
Steady-state and dynamics of the self-phase-locked (3\omega ==> 2\omega,
\omega) subharmonic optical parametric oscillator are analyzed in the
pump-and-signal resonant configuration, using an approximate analytical model
and a full propagation model. The upper branch solutions are found always
stable, regardless of the degree of pump enhancement. The domain of existence
of stationary states is found to critically depend on the phase-mismatch of the
competing second-harmonic process.Comment: LateX2e/RevteX4, 4 pages, 5 figures. Submitted to Phys. Rev. A

Bound states of edge dislocations: The quantum dipole problem in two dimensions
We investigate bound state solutions of the 2D Schr\"odinger equation with a
dipole potential originating from the elastic effects of a single edge
dislocation. The knowledge of these states could be useful for understanding a
wide variety of physical systems, including superfluid behavior along
dislocations in solid He. We present a review of the results obtained by
previous workers together with an improved variational estimate of the ground
state energy. We then numerically solve the eigenvalue problem and calculate
the energy spectrum. In our dimensionless units, we find a ground state energy
of -0.139, which is lower than any previous estimate. We also make successful
contact with the behavior of the energy spectrum as derived from semiclassical
considerations.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures, submitted to PR

The binary near-Earth asteroid (175706) 1996 FG3 - An observational constraint on its orbital evolution
Using our photometric observations taken between 1996 and 2013 and other
published data, we derived properties of the binary near-Earth asteroid
(175706) 1996 FG3 including new measurements constraining evolution of the
mutual orbit with potential consequences for the entire binary asteroid
population. We also refined previously determined values of parameters of both
components, making 1996 FG3 one of the most well understood binary asteroid
systems. We determined the orbital vector with a substantially greater accuracy
than before and we also placed constraints on a stability of the orbit.
Specifically, the ecliptic longitude and latitude of the orbital pole are
266{\deg} and -83{\deg}, respectively, with the mean radius of the uncertainty
area of 4{\deg}, and the orbital period is 16.1508 +/- 0.0002 h (all quoted
uncertainties correspond to 3sigma). We looked for a quadratic drift of the
mean anomaly of the satellite and obtained a value of 0.04 +/- 0.20 deg/yr^2,
i.e., consistent with zero. The drift is substantially lower than predicted by
the pure binary YORP (BYORP) theory of McMahon and Scheeres (McMahon, J.,
Scheeres, D. [2010]. Icarus 209, 494-509) and it is consistent with the theory
of an equilibrium between BYORP and tidal torques for synchronous binary
asteroids as proposed by Jacobson and Scheeres (Jacobson, S.A., Scheeres, D.
[2011]. ApJ Letters, 736, L19). Based on the assumption of equilibrium, we
derived a ratio of the quality factor and tidal Love number of Q/k = 2.4 x 10^5
uncertain by a factor of five. We also derived a product of the rigidity and
quality factor of mu Q = 1.3 x 10^7 Pa using the theory that assumes an elastic
response of the asteroid material to the tidal forces. This very low value
indicates that the primary of 1996 FG3 is a 'rubble pile', and it also calls
for a re-thinking of the tidal energy dissipation in close asteroid binary
systems.Comment: Many changes based on referees comment
Kharkiv database of asteroid absolute magnitudes : Comparative analysis with other datasets
We present a database of the absolute magnitudes of asteroids named the Kharkiv Asteroid Absolute Magnitude Database (KhAAMD). The database includes a homogeneous set of the absolute magnitudes for about 400 asteroids in the new HG(1)G(2) magnitude system. We performed a comparative analysis of the asteroid absolute magnitudes between the Kharkiv database and other main magnitude databases (MPC, Pan-STARRS, ATLAS, PTF, and Gaia). We show that the Pan-STARRS absolute magnitude dataset has no systematic deviations and is the most suitable for the determination of diameters and albedos of asteroids. For the MPC dataset, there is a linear trend of overestimating the absolute magnitudes of bright objects and underestimating the magnitudes of faint asteroids. The ATLAS dataset has both a systematic overestimation of asteroid magnitudes and a linear trend. We propose equations that can be used to correct for systematic errors in the MPC and the ATLAS magnitude datasets. There are possible systematic deviations of about 0.1 mag for the Gaia and PTF databases but there are insufficient data overlapping with our data for a definitive analysis.Peer reviewe
