SO2 and tephra emissions during the December 22, 2018 Anak Krakatau eruption
Authors: Gouhier Mathieu , Paris Raphaël
Published: July 2019

On December 22, 2018 the south-western flank of Anak Krakatau collapsed into the sea, removing 93.8 × 106 m3 of subaerial lavas, and generated a tsunami. Synchronously with the collapse, a large volcanic plume of SO2 and ash (14–15 km in height) has formed, marking the onset of a paroxysmal eruption lasting from December 22, 2018 to January 06, 2019. From remote sensing analysis, we show that the eruption can be divided into three main phases. Phase I and II show both tephra and gas emissions while phase III is mostly degassing. The total amount of SO2 injected in the atmosphere is 173±52 kt, while the minimum bulk magma volume emplaced, estimated from a topographic reconstruction, is ?45 × 106 m3. This value compares well with a petrologic-based estimate of 56.4 × 106 m3, making the existence of external sulphur sources and sinks quite unlikely. The ice-rich ash plume formation shows that a strong sea-water/magma interaction was responsible for the phreatomagmatic activity throughout the eruption. However, we distinguish a first Vulcanian blast-derived eruption (lasting 40 min) just after the collapse having a Mass Eruption Rate (MER) of 9 × 105 kgs?1, followed by a sustained lower-intensity eruption resulting in ash emissions over hours (MER = 5 × 105 kgs?1). From December 23, daytime photos show typical Surtseyan activity.

Authors: Milošev Miroslav , Glavic Drazenko
Published: July 2019

Autonomous vehicles are the concept which is being developed and which will certainly enter the market in the following decades. It is assumed that these technologies would improve road exploitation parameters and reduce consumers’ costs - both operating and time - related costs. Reduction in fuel consumption and insurance price, higher purchase price are only some of costs which could occur. The purpose of this paper is to present a few international research projects on autonomous vehicles costs.
Education and Age-related Decline in Cognitive Performance: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Longitudinal Cohort Studies
Authors: Seblova Dominika , Berggren Rasmus , Lövdén Martin
Published: July 2019

Central theories of cognitive aging propose that education is an important protective factor for decline in cognitive performance in older age. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of reported estimates of an association between educational attainment and change in performance in six cognitive domains (episodic memory, processing speed, verbal fluency, crystallized intelligence, fluid intelligence, and global ability) in the general population of older individuals. The systematic search (28th of September, 2018) identified 83 eligible articles. The episodic memory domain had the highest number of estimates (37 estimates from 17 articles, n=109,281) included in the meta-analysis. The fewest estimates (5 estimates from 5 articles, n=5,263) were included for fluid intelligence. Pooled mean estimates from an inverse-variance weighted random effects analysis were not statistically significant and indicated that any association between education and change in cognitive performance is likely to be of a negligible magnitude. Sensitivity analyses did not substantially alter these results. However, heterogeneity was substantial, and remained largely unexplained by mean age, mean educational attainment, maximum follow-up period, and publication year. Overall education is an important factor in aging due to its robust association with level of performance. However, we conclude that the current base of empirical evidence is not revealing a consistent and substantial association between educational attainment and changes in cognitive performance in the general population. Theories of cognitive aging must be updated to incorporate this pattern of findings.

Teknologi sudah menjadi salah satu kebutuhan pokok bagi setiap orang, baik dari generasi muda hingga tua. Salah satu teknologi tersebut adalah handphone, dimana handphone dapat memberikan dampak yang besar bagi kehidupan seseorang terutama pada anak-anak. Pada saat ini anak-anak di bawah 12 tahun sudah kecanduan dengan adanya handphone. Anak-anak tersebut melakukan kegiatan yang tidak dapat terlepas dari handpone seperti mengakses video bahkan game online setiap harinya. Kegiatan tersebut dapat mereka lakukan selama berjam-jam dan memungkinkan anak akan menghabiskan waktunya untuk berada di dalam rumah tanpa adanya sosialisai dengan teman sebayanya di luar rumah. Pada saat ini permainan tradisional sudah sangat jarang dimainkan bagi anak di bawah 12 tahun karena anak-anak sekarang lebih cenderung bermain game online . Hal tersebut dapat mengakibatkan kepunahan budaya bangsa Indonesia dalam permainan tradisional.Hal ini merupakan suatu tantangan agar permainan tradisional dapat diangkat kembali sehingga dapat mengurangi kecanduan anak di bawah 12 tahun dalam penggunaan handphone dan dapat melestarikan permainan tradisional yang tumbuh dalam masyarakat serta mampu membangkitkan jiwa bersosialisasi bagi anak.

Dynamics of carving runs in alpine skiing. II.Centrifugal pendulum with a retractable leg.
Authors: Komissarov Serguei
Published: July 2019

In this paper we present an advanced model of centrifugal pendulum where its length is allowed to vary during swinging. This modification accounts for flexion and extension of skier's legs when turning. We focus entirely on the case where the pendulum leg shortens near the vertical position, which corresponds to the most popular technique for the transition between carving turns in ski racing, and study the effect of this action on the kinematics and dynamics of these turns. In particular, we find that leg flexion on approach to the summit point is a very efficient way of preserving the contact between skis and snow. The up and down motion of the skier centre of mass can also have significant effect of the peak ground reaction force experienced by skiers, particularly at high inclination angles. Minimisation of this motion allows a noticeable reduction of this force and hence of the risk of injury. We make a detailed comparison between the model and the results of a field study of slalom turns and find a very good agreement. This suggests that the pendulum model is a useful mathematical tool for analysing the dynamics of skiing.
Evaluasi Potensi Fungsi Tanaman Sebagai Penyerap Polutan Gas CO2 pada Lanskap Regional Ring Road Kota Bogor
Authors: Aji Ditya Anggoro
Published: July 2019

Lanskap jalan merupakan fasilitas penunjang untuk para pengendara motor. Aktifitas pada lanskap jalan tidak lepas dari penggunaan kendaraan. Pembakaran bahan bakar pada kendaraan menyebabkan terjadinya pencemaran udara karena menghasilkan zat pencemar udara salah satunya yaitu karbon monoksida (Wardhana, 2001). Emisi CO2 yang tidak terkontrol oleh vegetasi dapat mengakibat suhu permukaan bumi meningkat atau disebut pemanasan global. Vegetasi diketahui dapat menyerap polutan gas CO2. Jalan R3 Kota Bogor sudah ditanam vegetasi sepanjang jalan dan memiliki potensi sebagai vegetasi penyerap polutan gas CO2. Dari hasil analisis yang telah dilakukan, sisa emisi CO2 yang terhitung di sepanjang jalan R3 sebesar 3642,413 kg/ha/jam. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa untuk saat ini vegetasi yang tertanam pada jalan R3 belum cukup untuk mereduksi emisi CO2 yang dihasilkan oleh kendaraan. Sehingga jalan R3 membutuhkan penanaman jenis pohon dengan kemampuan serapan CO2 yang tinggi dan juga memanfaatkan ruang tanam yang ada di sepanjang jalan R3 Kota Bogor.
Sveti Toma u enciklici Fides et ratio

Published: July 2019

The paragraphs contained in the encyclical Fides et Ratio which are explicitly devoted to Saint Thomas Aquinas comprise a condensed summation, or rather synthesis of the entire encyclical. These paragraphs incorporate the main themes which are expounded in other sections of the encyclical (philosophy opened to faith, theology mindful of philosophy, etc.) Encyclical teachings on the role of tradition in intellectual life justifies the constant recommendations of the Church regarding the favoured teachings of Saint Thomas, as in philosophy, so too in theology.
Words about Sobering (Seventh to Ninth)
Authors: Sidorov Alexey Ivanovich
Published: July 2019

This article presents a thematizing of sobriety as a characteristic of Christian spirituality through words or instructions from the monastic discourses of St. Theoleptos of Philadelphia, an influence on Gregory of Palamas. In this English rendition, with commentary notes, three of the discourses are arranged to bring soberness into focus. One treats humility of the mind with its associated virtues as a sobering trait in the soul’s movement toward expressing love for God. Spiritual reasoning is a component in perfecting humility by which the soul pushes forward to the Good. The second discourse in the arrangement is on falling away from the Good, safeguarding against the tyranny of passions that incur indebtedness to the devil. The third discourse is on the harm that can be done to a relationship and to one’s soul by thought, speech, and deeds. The discourse illustrates the harm through a quarrel between two sisters, degenerating from anger to hatred, to self-deceit, to spiritual illnesses, and hence an unhealthy disposition that is to be avoided in Christian living as the soul journeys forward.
DETERMINATION OF THE INPUT PARAMETERS OF THE WORK-STREAM OF THE OIL-GAS EJETOR USED SIMULTANEOUSLY WITH THE SUCKER-ROD PUMP
Authors: Dubey O.Ya.
Published: July 2019

In order to calculate the working mode of a sucker-rod pump driven by the beam pumping unit and a jet pump during their simultaneous operation, pressure and temperature distribution along the wellbore from the bottom to the wellhead is determined for the real oil well 753-D "Dolynanaftogaz" Field Office. To calculate these parameters an improved methodology based on known Poettmann-Carpenter and Baxendel methods is used. As a result, the imperfection of these methods was eliminated, namely the assumption that pressure and temperature behavior along the wellbore is linear. This led to obtaining results which are up to 23% more accurate. In addition, using the algorithm for determining the density of perfect (ideal) liquid-gas mixture, the author has calculated the velocities of gas-water-oil and water-oil mixtures for a number of sections along the production tubing at different angles of the crank position in the beam pumping unit. The indicated values make it possible to determine the depth of the oilgas jet pump location in the well, and, consequently, the parameters at its input (pressure, temperature, velocity of the liquid-gas mixture, its density, etc.). Besides, the author studies the dependence which describes the behavior of the liquid-gas mixture density along the wellbore, as well as the relations between the density of the free oil gas, thevolumetric consumption gas content of the flow and the placement of the section under consideration. All of the above-mentioned algorithms were implemented using developed computer programs. The obtained results give a possibility to choose the location of the jet pump in the well which is the most advantageous one for ensuring maximum pressure reduction and the decrease in the stem load.

Authors: Kaphle Dinesh , Kandel Himal , Paudel Prakash
Published: July 2019

Optometry is an independent profession which is specialised for providing comprehensive eye care including refraction and dispensing services, diagnosis and management of eye diseases and visual rehabilitation. In clinical settings of Nepal, optometrists are primarily recognised as refractionists and are provided with working opportunities in the same area. This report highlights other optomet- ric services such as binocular vision, multifocal lenses, contact lenses and occupational lens design which can be provided by optometrists besides performing refraction and prescribing spectacles. Considering large proportion of optometrists with further education and being working outside the country, new specialised services can be introduced through training and workshop to the fellow optometrists so that specialised services can reach up to the public level.

Keywords: Nepal; optometry; refraction services.

Published: July 2019

Brunner’s gland adenoma is a rare benign tumor of small bowel, often incidentally discovered during endoscopy or radiological imaging. Mostly they are asymptomatic or often present with nonspecific symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, iron deficiency anemia. We reported a 76 years old male case presented with chief complaints of vomiting and black tarry stool. General physical examination was normal except mild tenderness over epigastrium. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed a pedunculated polypoid tubular structure with blind end distally of length approximately 10-12* 3.5*1.5 cm in the second section of the duodenum with multiple skipped ulcers on the exposed surface of it. Additionally, there were few erosions in the duodenum proximally and multiple superficial ulcerations in the antrum, associated with helicobacter pylori confirmed by rapid urease test kit.

Knowledge, Attitude and Practice on Antibiotics Use and its Resistance Among Medical Students in A Tertiary Care Hospital
Authors: Shrestha Ruchi
Published: July 2019

Introduction: Antimicrobial resistance is an urgent and serious global health problem, demanding considerable attention from health care professionals worldwide. The unavoidable consequence of the widespread use of these agents has been the reason for emergence of antibiotic resistant pathogens, leading to increase in need for new drugs. This study aims to assess knowledge, attitude and practice towards antibiotics use and its resistance in undergraduate medical students.

Methods: A descriptive, cross sectional study was conducted among 228 undergraduate medical students studying in Universal College of Medical Sciences in February, 2018. Data was collected through self administered questionnaire and was entered in Statistical Package for Social Sciences 2016. Descriptive statistical analysis was carried out to find out knowledge, attitude and practice on antibiotics use and its resistance on medical students.

Results: The mean knowledge, attitude and practice score towards antibiotics use among students was 7.44±1.26, 3.35±1.12 and 5.06±1.45 respectively. Out of total students, only 39 (17.1%) had good knowledge and practice whereas 114 (50%) had good attitude towards antibiotics use. Approximately all 224 (98.2%) students were aware that antibiotics are useful for bacterial infection. Fifty two (22.8%) students said that antibiotics are safe drugs, therefore can be used commonly.

Conclusions: Although half of the students had good attitude, majority had moderate knowledge and practice towards antibiotics use. Adequate educational training should be provided to future doctors regarding proper prescribing, dispensing and usage of antibiotics.
Bilateral Adductor Nerve Palsy Following Total Thyroidectomy: A Case Report
Authors: Bhatt Prashant , Pokharel Apar
Published: July 2019

Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve palsy following thyroidectomy is usually attributed to surgery whereas sometimes the cause can be non-surgical and can result in adductor palsy. Bilateral Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve (RLN) paralysis is a rare complication of thyroidectomy. We present a 35 years female patient who developed dysphonia due to bilateral adductor RLN palsy following total thyroidectomy. The clinical findings and recovery were suggestive of a non-surgical cause for palsy in this patient. The management of these patients differs and the knowledge in this regard is very important for the surgeons. Tracheostomy is not required, and recovery of the nerve occurs in most cases in adductor palsy.

Authors: Sharma Umesh Kumar , Thapa Dinesh Kumar , Pokhrel Dinesh , Shah Amit Kumar
Published: July 2019

Persistent Mullerian duct syndrome is a rare entity and usually presents with common symptoms of undescended testis and hernia. The syndrome is caused by an insufficient amount of Mullerian inhibiting substance or due to the insensitivity of the target organ to Mullerian inhibiting substance. Polysplenia is a rare congenital disease manifested by multiple small accessory spleens. The association of these two entities is rare and has not been reported in the literature. We reported a case of a 27 years old male presented with complains of right flank pain and nausea. Ultrasound showed right ureteric calculus with hydronephrosis and elongated soft tissue mass posterior to bladder. Contrast enhanced Computed Tomography showed soft tissue suggestive of infantile uterine structure with multiple splenculi and short pancreas. He was diagnosed as Persistent Mullerian duct syndrome with unilateral cryptorchidism, polysplenia and short pancreas, coincidentally detected while evaluating for ureteric colic.
Economic and geographic aspects of new industrial and transport construction in Russia
Authors: Klyuev N. N.
Published: July 2019

The author conducted an inventory of investment projects implemented in post-Soviet Russia to determine the trends of the territorial organization of industry that are associated with the new construction. An exceptionally high territorial differentiation of industrial construction was revealed, which is expressed in its concentration in a small number of industrial areas and overconcentration in metropolitan regions. The total fragmentation of the single national economic complex in the course of market reforms is being replaced by an unstable trend of spontaneous complex formation. The analysis of the structure of new industrial construction did not reveal any signs of its greening. Two-thirds of the new projects involve the basic, ecologically aggressive sectors. The newly constructed transport infrastructure facilities are largely export-oriented rather than being enhancers of the connectivity of their territories. This vector of territorial development in Russia is negative from both geopolitical and environmental positions.
Common digital space of scientific knowledge

Published: July 2019

The article attempts a comprehensive analysis of the concept and phenomenon of the common digital space of scientific knowledge (CDSSK) as a narrower wording of the concept of the common Russian electronic space of knowledge, which is proposed in a number of government documents. Definitions of basic concepts are proposed in relation to this phenomenon. Goals, objectives, composition, and structure are considered to be the boundaries and the principles of creating CDSSK. A brief overview of the existing scientific information resources and services that have the features of the elements of space of scientific knowledge follows. It is concluded that the existing information resources can be sources of CDSSK but not its components. The paper proposes a structure for CDSSK, including static and dynamic components (base and add-in), various levels of knowledge representation, and core and periphery. This should include formalized knowledge over which a set of operations and the periphery – the sources of this knowledge (including documents) – are selected on the basis of quality. The logical structure of CDSSK must submit its ontology, formed as it ought to be on the basis of information languages and metadata of existing scientific information resources. A number of steps are proposed to organize the work of creating CDSSK, as well as its content and support.

Wohin treibt die Leistungsentlohnung? Befunde aus der Metall- und Elektroindustrie
Authors: Bahnmüller Reinhard , Hoppe Markus , Mugler Walter , Salm Rainer , Schwarz-Kocher Martin
Published: July 2019

Der Beitrag geht der Frage nach, welche Entwicklungen sich in der Metall- und Elektroindustrie seit der Debatte um eine arbeitgeberseitig für notwendig erachtete „Revitalisierung“ und von Arbeitssoziologen befürchtete „Vermarktlichung“ bzw. „Finalisierung“ der Leistungsentlohnung ergaben. Auf Basis einer schriftlichen Befragung von Personalverantwortlichen und Betriebsräten in Baden-Württemberg, Betriebsfallstudien und Expertengesprächen mit Vertretern der Gewerkschaft und der Arbeitgeberverbände sowie Daten der Verdiensterhebungen von Südwestmetall werden die Entwicklungen seit der Neujustierung des tarifvertraglichen Rahmens durch die Reform der Entgeltrahmenabkommen (ERA) Mitte des letzten Jahrzehnts nachgezeichnet. Es wird gezeigt, dass eine Revitalisierung ebenso wenig stattgefunden hat wie eine „Finalisierung“ bzw. „Vermarktlichung“ auf Basis eines nunmehr am Erfolg ausgerichteten Leistungsverständnisses, wie sie Arbeitssoziologie erwartete. Vielmehr hat sich die Leistungsentlohnung zu einem randständigen betrieblichen Gestaltungsfeld entwickelt, in dem schon länger anhaltende Trends fortgeschrieben und bisherige Prioritäten in der Methodenwahl beibehalten werden. Die Motivations-, Anreiz- sowie die Verteilungsfunktion hat das Leistungsentgelt vielfach verloren und auch als Instrument der Leistungsbegrenzung werden Leistungsentgeltsysteme nur noch selten wahrgenommen. Dennoch ist auf Seiten des Personalmanagements nur bei einer Minderheit ein deutlicher ausgeprägtes Unbehagen erkennbar, wohingegen Betriebsräte häufiger ihre Unzufriedenheit artikulieren, ohne allerdings mit Nachdruck auf Veränderung zu drängen. Für die Betriebs- wie für die Tarifparteien stellt sich gleichwohl die Frage, welche Funktion die Leistungsentlohnung angesichts ihrer partiellen Entleerung nicht zuletzt bei veränderten Führungsstrukturen haben kann und sollte.
MRE11A Isoform Expression Associated with Outcome Following Radiotherapy in Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer does not Alter Cell Survival and DNA Double-Strand Break Repair Following Ionising Radiation
Authors: Walker Alexandra K. , Na Juri , Browning Lisa , Humayun-Zakaria Nada , Zeegers Maurice P. , Cheng K.K. , James Nicholas D. , Bryan Richard T. , Arnold Roland , Kiltie Anne E.
Published: July 2019

Background:

DNA double strand breaks are the cytotoxic lesions produced by ionising radiation. Critical for the repair of these lesions is the DNA damage response protein MRE11 which, in a complex with RAD50 and NBS1, mediates DNA damage signalling and double-strand break repair. We previously found the presence of an MRE11 germline single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), rs1805363 ( G > A), to be associated with poor outcome following radiotherapy (RT) and increased expression of MRE11 isoform 2 in a limited panel of bladder cancer cell lines and tumours.

Objectives:

To look for further evidence in support of the SNP/isoform association in a larger panel of germline and tumour samples donated by patients diagnosed with invasive bladder cancer, and to test the hypothesis that bladder cancer cells expressing MRE11 isoform 2 would be more radio resistant than cells expressing MRE11 isoform 1.

Methods:

Germline DNA from 189 patients with invasive bladder cancer (141 T2, 48 T1) was genotyped for the rs1805363 G > A SNP. Loss of heterozygosity was determined by genotyping tumour DNA in 17GA germline patients. The Cancer Genome Atlas was mined to correlate presence of the GA germline genotype with MRE11 isoform expression. We used colony formation assays and γH2AX foci kinetics after ionising radiation in RT112 MRE11 knockdown cells expressing ectopic MRE11 isoform 1 or 2.

Results:

Of the 189 germline DNA samples, 22 contained both the A minor allele and G major allele with the remaining wild type containing only the G major allele. LOH was identified in seven of 17 available tumour samples. Tumour MRE11 isoform 2 expression was found to be significantly higher ( p = 0.007) in patients’s samples containing the A minor allele compared to those with only the G major allele ( n = 23). In the TCGA database we found 16% (66 out of 406) of bladder tumours heterozygous for the SNP and only two homozygous, and a significant relative increase of isoform 2 usage ( p = 0.017). We identified no significant difference in radio sensitivity between bladder cancer cells expressing either MRE11 isoform.

Conclusions:

In this study the MRE11 isoform 2 was not found to be associated with increased cellular sensitivity to radiation. We conclude that the previously reported association between the germline rs1805363 SNP and poor survival in MIBC patients following RT is unlikely to be related to the DNA damage response function of MRE11 isoform 2.
Measures of Adiposity and Alzheimer’s Disease-Related MRI Markers: The Northern Manhattan Study
Authors: Caunca Michelle R. , Simonetto Marialaura , Alperin Noam , Elkind Mitchell S.V. , Sacco Ralph L. , Wright Clinton B. , Rundek Tatjana
Published: July 2019

Background:

Adiposity may increase risk for dementia and Alzheimer’s disease (AD), but mechanisms are unclear.

Objective:

To examine associations between measures of adiposity with AD-signature region cortical thickness and hippocampal volume.

Methods:

We used data from the Northern Manhattan Study, a clinically stroke-free cohort of mostly Hispanic participants. Exposures of interest included body mass index (BMI), waist-hip-ratio (WHR), waist circumference (WC), and adiponectin concentration, measured at study entry. AD-signature region cortical thickness and hippocampal volume were obtained using Freesurfer. We estimated associations using multivariable linear regression, adjusting for sociodemographics and health behaviors. We re-examined estimates after adjustment for APOE ɛ4 allele status or carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT), among those cognitively unimpaired, and after weighting for the inverse probability of selection into the MRI sub-study. We also repeated analyses for cortical thickness in non-AD signature regions.

Results:

The sample ( N = 947, 63% women, 66% Hispanic/Latino, 26% obese) had a mean (SD) age = 63 (8) years. Greater BMI and WC (both z-scored) were associated with thinner AD-signature region cortex (also z-scored) (BMI: β [95% CI] = –0.09 [–0.18, –0.01], WC: β [95% CI] = –0.11 [–0.20, –0.02]). We did not find evidence that adiposity was related to hippocampal volume. Results were consistent after adjustment for APOE ɛ4 allele status or cIMT, after weighting for selection, among those cognitively unimpaired, and for non-AD signature region cortical thickness.

Conclusion:

Greater BMI and WC were related to cortical thinning within and outside the AD-signature region, suggesting a global effect not specific to AD.
Deploying ABAC policies using RBAC systems
Authors: Batra Gunjan , Atluri Vijayalakshmi , Vaidya Jaideep , Sural Shamik
Published: July 2019

The flexibility, portability and identity-less access control features of Attribute Based Access Control (ABAC) make it an attractive choice to be employed in many application domains. However, commercially viable methods for implementation of ABAC do not exist while a vast majority of organizations use Role Based Access Control (RBAC) or their temporal extensions, such as Temporal Role Based Access Control (TRBAC). In this paper, we present a solution for organizations having a RBAC/TRBAC that can deploy an ABAC policy. Essentially, we propose a method for the translation of an ABAC policy (including time constraints) into a form that can be adopted by an RBAC/TRBAC system.

We experimentally demonstrate that time taken to evaluate an access request in RBAC and TRBAC systems is significantly less than that of the corresponding ABAC system. Since the cost of security management is more expensive under RBAC when compared to ABAC, we present an analysis of the different management costs and present mitigation approaches by considering various administrative operations.
Moonshots for aging
Authors: Kumar Sandeep , Peterson Timothy R.
Published: July 2019

As the global population ages, there is increased interest in living longer and improving one’s quality of life in later years. However, studying aging – the decline in body function – is expensive and time-consuming. And despite research success to make model organisms live longer, there still aren’t really any feasible solutions for delaying aging in humans. With space travel, scientists and engineers couldn’t know what it would take to get to the moon. They had to extrapolate from theory and shorter-range tests. Perhaps with aging, we need a similar moonshot philosophy. And though “shot” might imply medicine, perhaps we need to think beyond medical interventions. Like the moon once was, we seem a long way away from provable therapies to increase human healthspan (the healthy period of one’s life) or lifespan (how long one lives). This review therefore focuses on radical proposals. We hope it might stimulate discussion on what we might consider doing significantly differently than ongoing aging research.

The problem of motivating an individual to be active in the society is always relevant in different fields of science, since the availability of appropriate motives determines appropriate response of each person. The purposeful formation of students’ study and professional motivation is one of the main tasks in higher education, and identifying different aspects of such motivation in first-year students gives an opportunity to have feedback and improve the living conditions of young people. In this article it has been established that student’s educational motivation can be considered as a complex system of factors and motives (goals, needs, interests, tendencies, successes, etc.) that are constantly changing and are mutually influential; it makes students acquire knowledge, development and develop their abilities, skills, personal qualities, a positive attitude to their future profession and the world around. The purpose of this work is to study the indicators and peculiarities of the motivation to study of first-year students. At this stage, among the main tasks is the determination of indicators and dynamics of motivation of first-year students at the classical university based on the example of the Uzhhorod National University using the results an electronic questionnaire for first-year students.
The article reveals a peculiarity of students’ motivation to study, which lies in the fact that it is not only polimotivated, but also one of the important results of the adaptation process (that is, the process and result of adaptation as a factor of motivation) and at the same time one of the mechanisms/factors of adaptation of young people to the educational process in higher education. The Empirical research proves that at the university, the majority of students (over 70%) have optimal motivational complexes during all the academic years under research, which contributes to successful professional training. There is also a general tendency for both the university as a whole and for most faculties, namely higher indicators of internal and external positive motivation in comparison with indicators of external negative motivation.

Progress in the fabrication technology of normal incidence multilayer interference mirrors permits the traditional optical methods of microscopy, astronomy, and lithography to be transferred to the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV, wavelength: 10–200 nm) and the long-wavelength part of the soft X-ray (SXR, wavelength: 2–10 nm) ranges. Due to the short wavelength and properties of interaction with the substance, the radiation of these ranges provides unique opportunities in nanophysics, nanotechnology, and nanodiagnostics of matter. To use the potential of a short wavelength in full, diffraction-limited optical elements are required. Compared to traditional optical elements, their accuracy must be at least two orders of magnitude higher. The article provides an analysis of the real capabilities of traditional methods of making and studying precision optical elements and reports on the methods of fabrication and characterization of diffraction-limited optics for the VUV and SXR ranges developed at IPM RAS. Examples of the use of these optical elements for the tasks of extraterrestrial astronomy, X-ray microscopy, and lithography are given.
