The rate of synthesis and decomposition of tissue proteins in hypokinesia and increased muscular activity
During hypokinesia and physical loading (swimming) of rats, the radioactivity of skeletal muscle, liver, kidney, heart, and blood proteins was determined after administration of radioactive amino acids. Tissue protein synthesis decreased during hypokinesia, and decomposition increased. Both synthesis and decomposition increased during physical loading, but anabolic processes predominated in the total tissue balance. The weights of the animals decreased in hypokinesia and increased during increased muscle activity
Measurement of the neutron electric dipole moment by crystal diffraction
An experiment using a prototype setup to search for the neutron electric
dipole moment by measuring spin-rotation in a non-centrosymmetric crystal
(quartz) was carried out to investigate statistical sensitivity and systematic
effects of the method. It has been demonstrated that the concept of the method
works. The preliminary result of the experiment is ecm. The experiment showed that an accuracy of ecm can be obtained in 100 days data taking, using available
quartz crystals and neutron beams.Comment: 13 pages, 4 figure
Two-color interference stabilization of atoms
The effect of interference stabilization is shown to exist in a system of two
atomic levels coupled by a strong two-color laser field, the two frequencies of
which are close to a two-photon Raman-type resonance between the chosen levels,
with open channels of one-photon ionization from both of them. We suggest an
experiment, in which a rather significant (up to 90%) suppression of ionization
can take place and which demonstrates explicitly the interference origin of
stabilization. Specific calculations are made for H and He atoms and optimal
parameters of a two-color field are found. The physics of the effect and its
relation with such well-known phenomena as LICS and population trapping in a
three-level system are discussed.Comment: the paper includes 1 TeX file and 16 picture
Q-complements on log surfaces
In this paper the log surfaces without \QQ-complement are classified. In
particular, they are non-rational always. This result takes off the restriction
in the theory of complements and allows one to apply it in the most wide class
of log surfaces.Comment: Latex2e, 3 page
