MODERN PREVENTIVE STRATEGIES ARE AIMED AT PREVENTING CRIMINAL ACTS
Authors:   Lviv Polytechnic National University, Koval Mariia
Published: December 2022

In recent decades, not only the institution of punishment has undergone significant transformations, turning from a means of responding to criminal offenses into a preventive mechanism. In addition to punishment, the criminal justice system uses a wide range of other coercive measures, the main objective of which is prevention. In order to distinguish between these two types of coercion, the term "preventive justice" was proposed to denote a set of state coercive mechanisms aimed at ensuring anti-criminal security. It should be noted that the problems that are considered within the framework of "preventive justice" are not new, characteristic of the 21st century. The need to prevent criminal offenses committed by "habitual" or professional offenders and the difficulties that the criminal justice system faces in solving this problem were of interest to lawyers and criminologists in the XIX and XX centuries. However, the renewal of interest in this issue is associated with the transformation of modern society into a "risk society", in which securitization, bringing to the fore the problems of risk and security is becoming increasingly widespread. Recently, more and more foreign criminologists have come to the conclusion about the limited capabilities of the official system of fighting crime. First of all, this was due to the constant increase in the cost of this struggle. This circumstance gave impetus to the study and analysis of informal social control measures. Such activities fall under the general category of "crime prevention", which covers a very wide range of possible measures. Despite the significant progress made in the last ten years, states have to face many problems that impede the full potential of crime prevention. These are mainly the result of unresolved ethical issues, implementation difficulties and technical difficulties in evaluating the effectiveness of crime prevention. Therefore, modern preventive crime prevention strategies are mainly recognized in developed countries. This situation is likely to change as a result of the widespread dissemination of information about the theory and practice of crime prevention.

The paper theoretically substantiates and outlines the key areas of implementation of the gender approach in the public management of the educational process. In connection with the democratization of Ukrainian society and integration into the European educational space, the need to implement a number of international and domestic normative acts on gender equality issues, the role of the gender approach in education is growing as an effective means of implementing the principles of gender equality, which will contribute to the realization of the rights of each individual, activation its participation in economic, political, social and cultural development. The gender approach in education involves liberating the professional vision of the manager, teacher from gender-role stereotypes as specific and serious barriers to the perception of the individual, helps to focus attention on the real gifts and abilities of students regardless of gender. The main directions of the implementation of the gender approach in the management of the educational process are defined as the management of educational activities, during which students acquire the necessary knowledge, skills, and abilities, on the basis of which they form their own values and attitudes; application by scientific and pedagogical workers in their professional activities of forms, methods and technologies of organizing the educational process, which would stimulate the development of creative, strategic thinking, leadership, and a sense of responsibility; taking into account the gender component in the management of educational institutions, which implies the observance of gender balance in the personnel policy of the institution and the system in general, the neutralization of gender stereotypes and prejudices. The need to conduct a gender audit of educational institutions in order to assess the state of ensuring equal rights and opportunities for women and men in educational institutions, identifying existing problems, as well as implementing gender competence to the standards of higher education has been proven.

Published: December 2022

The conversion of CO2 by enzymes such as carbonic anhydrases or carboxylases plays a crucial role in many biological processes. However, methods to study the conversion of CO2 at the active site of enzymes in situ are still limited. Here, we used Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy to study the interaction of CO2 with crotonyl-CoA carboxylase/reductase from Kitasaospora setae (KsCcr), one of the fastest CO2-fixing enzymes in nature. Our studies reveal that the enzyme possesses a so far unknown metal-independent carbonic anhydrase activity. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations explain why substrate binding inhibits anhydrase activity, and mutations of active site residues of KsCcr suggest that an ‘activated’ water molecule, coordinated by a histidine and glutamate residue, forms the hydroxyl anion that attacks the CO2 molecule. Altogether, we demonstrate how in situ FTIR spectroscopy combined with MD simulations provides new means to investigate the interaction of different proteins with CO2, providing a simple, yet powerful approach to atomistic reaction mechanisms including CO2 hydration and enzymatic (de-)hydration reactions.
Electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution at full atomic utilization over ITO-supported sub-nano Ptn clusters: High, size-dependent activity controlled by fluxional Pt hydride species

Published: December 2022

A combination of density functional theory (DFT) and experiments with atomically size-selected Ptn clusters deposited on indium-tin oxide (ITO) electrodes was used to examine the effects of applied potential and Ptn size on the electrocatalytic activity of Ptn (n = 1, 4, 7, 8) for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Activity is found to be negligible for isolated Pt atoms on ITO, increasing rapidly with Ptn size, such that Pt7/ITO and Pt8/ITO have roughly double the activity per Pt atom compared atoms in the surface layer of polycrystalline Pt. Both DFT and experiment find that hydrogen under-potential deposition (Hupd) results in Ptn/ITO (n = 4, 7, 8) adsorbing ~2 H atoms/Pt atom at the HER threshold potential, equal to ca. double the Hupd observed for bulk Pt or Pt nanoparticles. The cluster catalysts under electrocatalytic conditions are hence best described as a Pt hydride compound, significantly departing from a metallic Pt cluster. The exception is Pt1/ITO, where H adsorption at the HER threshold potential is energetically unfavorable. Theory combines global optimization with grand canonical approaches for the influence of potential, uncovering that several metastable structures contribute to HER, changing with the applied potential. It is hence critical to include reactions of the ensemble of energetically accessible PtnHx/ITO structures to correctly predict the activity vs. Ptn size and applied potential. For the small clusters, spillover of Hads from the clusters to the ITO support is significant, resulting in a competing channel for loss of Hads, particularly at slow potential scan rates.
A general and simple state equation for all gases
Authors: Ni Henmei , Zhu Bing
Published: December 2022

A general and simple state equation for all gases is proposed based on the theory that the elastic collision between the boundary and gas molecules contributes the pressure, whilst the completely inelastic collision contributes the exchange of heat between the gas and the surrounding via boundary. In addition, at the high density and temperature, the high frequency of collision abates the distance of molecular motion, thus the effect of molecular mass is significant. Therefore, the gravity is introduced into the state equation. The general state equation covers the whole temperature range below the critical temperature. The full thermodynamic data of liquid-gas equilibrium at saturation of 39 substances including the light and heavy water are used for the fitting of equation. The general state equation fits the reference data well except the temperature near to the critical temperature. Moreover, the theory is applicable for the liquid, and the calculation of thermodynamic parameters such as the specific heat capacity.

Computational Material Database of Free-Standing 2D Perovskites
Authors: Yang Jack , Li Sean
Published: December 2022

Inspired by the recent developments in the free-standing 2D complex oxide perovskite membranes and bulk 2D halide perovskite photoabsorbers, here, we put forward a new computational material database that has screened the stabilities and physical properties of 5,112 free-standing 2D nanostructures for 213 ABX3 cubic perovskites in 3 crystallographic orientations and 4 thicknesses, each with 2 different types of terminating surface chemistries. Our screening results show that many ABX3 compounds may form free-standing 2D structures that are both chemically and dynamically stable. Generally, the optimized 2D structures exhibit a shrinkage of the in-plane B-X bond lengths that are compensated by the elongation of the bonds normal to the 2D plane. As a result, the electron density distributions along the out-of-plane directions are strongly perturbed leading to a complex structural-dependent variation in the space-charge polarizations in these free-standing 2D perovskites. However, the out-of-plane ionic contributions to the dielectric permittivity are completely suppressed because of the structural confinement effect. The dominant contribution to the ionic dielectric permittivity thus comes from the in-plane optical phonons, the change in the frequencies of which from their bulk counterparts exhibits a complex dependency with the structures and chemistries of the 2D structures. Furthermore, without considering surface passivations and structural defects, the majority of the free-standing 2D perovskites exhibit metallic behavior. In particular, transition metal halides show exclusive spin-polarization at the Fermi level, which may be harnessed for applications such as nano spin-polarizer. Finally, unsupervised machine learning is further applied to discover the intriguing chemical and structural patterns among the computationally screened free-standing 2D perovskite structures, allowing us to reveal in a fully `data-driven' manner, the dependence of the energetic stabilities upon the surface termination, ionic radii and the layer thicknesses of these nanostructures. With fully open-sourced data and analysis code, we anticipate the current work can inspire the future theoretical and experimental works in the developments of free-standing 2D perovskites to harness their ubiquitous properties for new applications in nanoelectronics, sensing, energy harvesting and many others.
Lipid linked nucleoside triphosphates for enzymatic synthesis of hydrophobic oligonucleotides with enhanced membrane anchoring efficiency
Authors: Kodr David , Kuzmova Erika , Pohl Radek , Kraus Tomas , Hocek Michal
Published: December 2022

We designed and synthesized a series of 2’-deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs) bearing various lipid moieties. Fatty acid- and cholesterol-modified dNTPs proved to be substrates for KOD XL DNA polymerase in primer extension reactions. They were also mutually compatible for simultaneous multiple incorporations into the DNA strand. The methodology of enzymatic synthesis opened a pathway to diverse structurally unique lipid ON probes containing one or more lipid units. We studied interactions of such probes with the plasma membranes of live cells. Employing rational design, we found a series of lipid ONs with enhanced efficiency of the membrane anchoring. In membrane stability of multiply modified ONs was superior to that of commonly studied ON analogues, in which a single cholesterol molecule is typically tethered to the thread end. Notably, some of the probes were detected at the cell surface even after 24 h upon removal of the probe solution. Such effect was general to several studied cell lines.

Optimal Behavior of Agents in a Piecewise Linear Taxation Environment
Authors:   Higher School of Economics, Bogachev T. V.
Published: December 2022

We study analytical properties of the optimal income taxation model. In this model we consider the maximization of utility of an agent of the given type. The real meaning of the utility is the net profit of the legal entity. The mathematical consideration of the taxation optimization uses methods of probability theory, functional analysis and optimal control. The totality of all agents in the economy is represented by the probability space of their types. Optimal income taxation differs from commodity taxation, another branch of the optimal tax theory. Actual taxes are commonly linear or segmented, which naturally suggests us to consider such cases in this research. To be more precise, we describe the general piecewise linear taxation model with increasing linear coefficients. The latter is necessary for the tax function to be convex. An explicit description of optimal functioning of agents depending on their types is obtained. In particular, we consider optimal labour effort and optimal utility
On Control of Probability Flows with Incomplete Information
Authors:   N. N. Krasovskii Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics UB RA, Khlopin D. V.
Published: December 2022

The mean-field type control problems with incomplete information are considered. There are several points of view that can be adopted to study the dynamics in probability space. Eulerian framework describes probability flows by the continuity equation. Kantorovich formulation describes each probability flows in terms of a single distribution on the set of admissible trajectories. The superposition principle connects these frameworks for uncontrolled dynamics. In this article, a probability flow in the both frameworks must be generated by a control that based on incomplete information about state and/or the probability at every time instance. This article presents some links between these frameworks in the case of incomplete information. In particular, besides the convexity condition, the assumptions are founded that guarantees the equivalence between the Kantorovich and Eulerian framework. This expands [6, Theorem 1] to mean-field type control problem with incomplete information.

Authors: Crosbie Eric , Erinoso Olufemi , Perez Sara , Sebrié Ernesto M.
Published: December 2022

Objective. To assess the adoption of tobacco packaging and labeling policies based on the World Health Organization (WHO) Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC)’s Article 11 guidelines, in the WHO Region of the Americas (AMRO).

Methods. We reviewed tobacco control laws in AMRO from the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids’ Tobacco Control Laws database. We analyzed four sub-policy areas for smoked and smokeless tobacco products: 1) health warning labels (HWLs), 2) constituents and emissions (C&Es), 3) misleading tobacco packaging and labeling, and 4) standardized “plain” packaging.

Results. Of 35 countries in AMRO, 31 have tobacco packaging and labeling laws. Twenty-six countries require pictorial HWLs, 24 require warnings printed on at least 50% of the front and back of the packs, and 24 rotate a single or multiple (from 2 to 16) warnings within a specified period (from 5 up to 24 months). Only 21 countries require descriptive messages on toxic C&Es information. Twenty-seven countries ban brand descriptors with references to implied harm reduction (e.g., “light”), 24 ban figures, colors, and other signs, but only 13 prohibit emission yields printed on the packs. Only Canada and Uruguay have adopted standardized tobacco packaging while Uruguay also requires a single presentation (one brand variant) per brand family.

Conclusion. Many countries in AMRO have made good progress in adopting multiple, rotating, large pictorial HWLs and banning misleading brand descriptors. However, there needs to be greater attention on other tobacco packaging and labeling provisions with a focus on implementing standardized tobacco packaging.

Published: December 2022

A inclusão somente pode ocorrer de forma efetiva a partir da mudança nas atitudes e nos pensamentos dos grupos que compõem a sociedade, como é o caso do grupo familiar, tido como uma das esferas sociais mais antigas de integração e apoio à pessoa com deficiência. Objetivou-se, neste trabalho, examinar as percepções das famílias sobre a trajetória de vida do estudante deficiente na Universidade Federal de Viçosa - UFV, Campus Viçosa/MG, com ênfase em seu processo de acesso e permanência no ambiente universitário. Metodologicamente, a pesquisa foi de natureza qualitativa, tendo como instrumento de coleta de dados a técnica da História Oral, por meio da entrevista narrativa, conjugada com o levantamento bibliográfico. Os dados foram analisados pelo software IRaMuTeQ (Interface de R pour les Analyses Multidimensionnelles de Textes et de Questionnaires), e, posteriormente, tratados pela análise de conteúdo. Os resultados, por meio da análise da nuvem de palavras, identificaram cinco categorias de análise, a saber: dificuldade, UFV, conseguir, família e deficiência. Estas foram consideradas determinantes na trajetória de vida dos entrevistados, segundo a percepção da rede familiar. Pôde-se perceber que, num contexto geral, a maior dificuldade que a família encontra é a financeira e, no âmbito da universidade, a dificuldade consiste no deslocamento, uma vez que a acessibilidade ainda não constitui uma condição ideal. Na visão das famílias, reconhece-se que o deficiente convive com inúmeros problemas em função do tipo de deficiência, embora ele tenha conseguido se adaptar, principalmente com o apoio familiar.

When the Petrovsky Agricultural and Forestry Academy was founded, the Department of Mineralogy and Geognosy was established, along with other departments. The course of geology, taught at the department, had an applied significance as well as a huge ideological and educational value. During its existence, a scientific and pedagogical school in the field of crystallography, mineralogy and geology was established. The research of agronomic ores, linking the geological and agronomic sciences is of great importance. For a century and a half since its foundation, the department has gone through a difficult path from purely descriptive geological research (lithological-petrographic, paleontological) to complex interdisciplinary (paleolandscape and adaptive landscape) research.

The Red Data Book of the Stavropol Territory (2013) contains materials on the distribution of rare and endangered species and their habitat in the region. Especially active research in this direction was carried out until 2001. But since the environment around us changes under human influence, the floral composition of the Stavropol Territory also changes: not only some rare species disappear, but also their populations. Since 2009, the staff of the Stavropol Botanical Garden has been involved in research work on the inventory of protected species of local flora in order to clarify their habitats and assess the current state. During the period from 2009 to 2021, we visited 12 administrative districts, conducted a survey of 22 specially protected territories of the state and regional significance and nine territories which do not have a protected status. More than 80 expedition trips were organized. At the first stages of monitoring studies, the areas of detected populations and their coordinates were determined using a GPS navigator. Scientific work on the study of the state of some protected species was carried out according to a simplified program, i.e., according to the first level of monitoring. Making one-time expedition trips, the maximum data collection was carried out for their further accumulation. The study of the age spectrum, in this case, was carried out on meter sites laid when moving along the population. Research work on the study of species in dynamics was at stationary sites. To determine the state of populations and their vitality, visits to stationary sites were planned periodically and at different times of the growing season. All data on the study of the state of populations of protected species of the the Stavropol Territory are published in annual scientific reports and articles in journals of research institutions.

The article is devoted to the activities of Richard Ivanovich Schroeder, an outstanding Russian scientist, practitioner and teacher in the field of Horticulture. The outstanding role of R.I. Schroeder in the development of scientific horticulture, vegetable growing and ornamental gardening, in the foundation of educational activities in the Petrovsky (now the RSAU-MTAA) Academy is described. Information about the main directions of scientific activity of R.I. Schroeder is presented. Among them are: the introduction and acclimatization of plants, the breeding of new stable forms of perennial garden plants, the creation of an outstanding monument of gardening and landscape art of the Arboretum named after R.I. Schroeder. The classic work of R.I. Schroeder “Russkiy ogorod, pitomnik i plodoviy sad [Russian vegetable garden, nursery and orchard]” was a reference book for many generations of Russian gardeners. It has not lost its relevance in the present. The last edition of this outstanding work was in 2008. The scientific, pedagogical, and practical activity of this outstanding person became the foundation for the subsequent development of scientific and pedagogical schools in the field of horticulture.

In the studies carried out in 2004–2005 at the structural subdivision of Russian State Agrarian University – Moscow Timiryazev Agricultural Academy (Field Station), accumulation of NPK in the roots was observed. It was revealed that the underground mass of agrophytocenoses consisting of legume and cereal component mowed twice significantly outstripped the variants mowed three times during the growing season. The maximum underground mass was recorded in the third year of use. It was 8.70–10.7 t/ha in the variant with the variegated alfalfa Lugovaya 67. Dynamics of increase of underground mass in agrophytocenoses with meadow clover in 2004 and 2005 were close – 2.49–3.72 and 2.68–3.70 t/ha. At the same time the underground mass of variants with clover was characterized by the high content of nitrogen. Thus, the highest N content in agrophytocenoses with clover was observed for the varieties Mars (1.89%) and Ranniy 2 (1.82%), while agrophytocenoses with alfalfa had values of 1.75% and 1.65% (the varieties Lada and Lugovaya 67, respectively). The highest phosphorus content was observed in the variants where the legume component is represented by alfalfa Lugovaya 67 (0.48%) and Vega 87 (0.42%). At the same time among clover-grass agrophytocenoses it was 0.38% (the variety Ranniy 2). The maximum content of К2О was observed in the underground mass of alfalfa Lugovaya 67 (0.87%) and clover Trio (0.84%). The lowest relative content of potassium (0.64%) was recorded in the agrophytocenosis, where the legume component is represented by alfalfa (the variety Vernal). As a result of the conducted research, the advantage of alfalfa varieties over clover varieties was noted in terms of the relative content of the studied elements. At the same time, the maximum values were observed in agrophytocenosis (cereals + alfalfa) of the variety Lugovaya 67. Among the variants (cereals + clover), the maximum values for the accumulation of studied elements were characterized by the variety Ranniy 2.
