Authors: Correia Idalécia Soares , Jakubaszko Andrea , Braga Maria Ângela Figueiredo , Martins Sheyla Borges
Published: November 2022

As candidaturas e os mandatos coletivos têm sido considerados inovações na representação política no Brasil. Embora não estejam previstos nas regras eleitorais vigentes no país, tornaram-se uma estratégia de competição eleitoral e apresentam expectativas em relação ao fazer da política e da possibilidade de inclusão de segmentos da população e de maior proximidade entre representantes e representados. O objetivo deste artigo é discutir o fenômeno mandatos coletivos exitosos nas eleições legislativas municipais de 2016 e 2020, e para a Câmara dos Deputados em 2018. Para contextualizar essas experiências no seio da política brasileira, este artigo apresenta características centrais dos sistemas eleitoral e partidário e propõe uma reflexão sobre as potencialidades e desafios dos mandatos coletivos. Os dados apresentados foram coletados em relatórios de pesquisas, sites dos coletivos e partidos políticos. Concluiu-se que a composição dos mandatos coletivos analisados favorece a representação da diversidade presente na sociedade brasileira, especialmente de segmentos que estão sub-representados.
Świadomość podatkowoprawna podmiotów administracji rządowej
Authors: Nowak Ireneusz
Published: November 2022

Artykuł podejmuje tematykę szeroko rozumianej świadomości podatkowoprawnej podmiotów administracji rządowej, co do zasady z obszaru danin publicznoprawnych. Podstawowym celem rozważań jest ukazanie, na podstawie Krajowej Administracji Skarbowej oraz pakietu ustaw pt. Podatkowy Polski Ład/Niskie Podatki, tzw. rozdźwięku pomiędzy celami deklarowanymi przez kierownictwo Krajowej Administracji Skarbowej oraz Ministerstwa Finansów a rzeczywistością. Co więcej, zasadnicza wątpliwość, którą autor próbuje wyjaśnić, sprowadza się do pytania: „Czy osoby powoływane na kierownicze stanowiska w administracji podatkowej/skarbowej powinny mieć »sprofilowane« wykształcenie oraz »ukierunkowane« doświadczenie w zakresie wymiaru, poboru i egzekucji danin publicznoprawnych?”.
Wpływ struktury stawek podatku akcyzowego na rynek poszczególnych wyrobów akcyzowych
Authors: Bronicki Wojciech
Published: November 2022

System poboru akcyzy w Unii Europejskiej, a także w Polsce, oparty głównie na procedurze zawieszenia poboru akcyzy, jest najszczelniejszym systemem poboru podatków. Bardzo duży wpływ na rynek wyrobów akcyzowych ma ustalenie stawek podatku akcyzowego na alkohol etylowy, piwo, wino i napoje fermentowane oraz papierosy, tytoń do palenia czy wyroby nowatorskie do 2027 r. (na okres pięciu lat). W przypadku napojów alkoholowych ustalone stawki akcyzy utrzymują relację stawki podatkowej między napojami wysokoprocentowymi, takimi jak wódka, a napojami niskoprocentowymi, takimi jak piwo i wino. Jednak ze względu na dużą wrażliwość na zmiany cen w przypadku relatywnie tanich pojedynczych napojów niskoalkoholowych, takich jak piwo, ich spożycie może być ograniczone kosztem napojów wysokoalkoholowych. W przypadku wyrobów tytoniowych, a zwłaszcza papierosów, relacja obciążenia akcyzą papierosów tanich do drogich zostanie utrzymana w dłuższej perspektywie, ponieważ po pierwszym roku obowiązywania nowych stawek równomierny wzrost opłaty będzie wynikał z zastosowania wyższej stawki kwotowej. Jednakże w odniesieniu do produktów alternatywnych dla papierosów, takich jak e-papierosy i produkty nowatorskie, taka równowaga nie została zachowana, ponieważ stawki dla wyrobów nowatorskich znacznie wzrosły, podczas gdy stawki dla e-papierosów pozostały niezmienione. Stawki na tradycyjne papierosy również pozostały niezmienione w pierwszym roku, zwiększono jedynie stawkę minimalną, ale w mniejszym stopniu niż inflacja. W rezultacie nawet papierosy objęte tą minimalną stawką są realnie nie mniej dostępne ekonomicznie. Ponadto rynek nadal oferuje papierosy po cenach znacznie niższych od średniej ważonej wartości papierosów w poprzednim roku. Na strukturę rynku nie powinny jednak wpływać planowane podwyżki stawek podatku akcyzowego na tytoń do palenia, wyroby innowacyjne i papierosy, począwszy od 2023 r., ponieważ rosną one równo (poza e-papierosami) o 10% na wszystkie produkty i są realizowane poprzez zwiększenie stawki kwotowej.
Dobra wiara w prawie podatkowym. Rozważania na gruncie art. 58a Ordynacji podatkowej
Authors: Ćwik-Bury Agata
Published: November 2022

Artykuł podejmuje problematykę dobrej wiary w aspekcie regulacji art. 58a Ordynacji podatkowej, wprowadzającej dodatkowe zobowiązanie podatkowe związane z przepisami antyabuzywnymi – klauzulą przeciwko unikaniu opodatkowania. Autorka, dokonując analizy normatywnej instytucji dobrej wiary z art. 58a Ordynacji podatkowej jako przesłanki mogącej uwolnić podatnika od dodatkowego zobowiązania podatkowego, rozważa znaczenie tego pojęcia oraz jego relację w odniesieniu do orzeczniczej koncepcji dobrej wiary funkcjonującej w obszarze wspólnego systemu podatku od wartości dodanej. Wskazuje również, że z uwagi na niedookreśloność terminu „dobra wiara” stanowi ona elastyczną formę stosowania prawa podatkowego, właściwą dla neopozytywizmu prawniczego.
Pozorna rysa na obliczu Temidy
Authors: Dobrowolski Marek
Published: November 2022

Artykuł stanowi polemikę z tekstem A. Gomułowicza pt. Rysa na obliczu Temidy („Kwartalnik Prawa Podatkowego” 2022, nr 2, s. 29–38), który jest krytyczną, acz swoistą glosą do wyroku Naczelnego Sądu Administracyjnego z dnia 4 listopada 2021 r. (III FSK 3626/21) odnoszącego się do powołań sędziowskich (asesorskich) z udziałem obecnej KRS. Jest to glosa napisana w formie publicystyki prawniczej, połączonej dodatkowo z wykładem prawa konstytucyjnego, którego precyzja pozostawia wiele do życzenia. W efekcie w artykule pojawia się szereg tez stawianych nader swobodnie, co czyni je bardziej zbiorem refleksji luźno zainspirowanych wyrokiem NSA niż spójnym prawniczo wywodem (np. dotyczących testu Astradsson), albo tez stawianych z pominięciem dorobku orzeczniczego Trybunału Konstytucyjnego oraz doktryny prawa konstytucyjnego (np. w odniesieniu do prerogatywy Prezydenta RP). W rezultacie uznać należy, że autor nazbyt pobieżnie traktuje podjętą w wyroku NSA problematykę – raczej ogłasza tylko swoje przekonania, niż próbuje je udowadniać. W ten sposób jednak nie ma szans zbliżenia się do prawdy, którą – jak deklaruje – ceni sobie bardziej od przyjaźni.
Remesas y nueva "fuga de cerebros" : impactos transnacionales
Authors: Altamirano Teófilo
Published: November 2022

El tema de remesas y de la nueva "fuga" del capital humano está concitando un interés sin precedentes en los países de origen y de destino de los migrantes transnacionales. A diferencia de estudios previos sobre el impacto de las remesas realizadas por investigadores y funcionarios en los países ricos y que suelen exaltar los beneficios que estas producen en los países emisores de migrantes (países pobres), en Remesas y nueva "Fuga de cerebros" no solo se reconocen los beneficios: también se asume una visión más crítica desde una perspectiva de los países emisores de migrantes. Remesas y nueva "Fuga de cerebros" pone en evidencia la necesidad de un debate político sobre la importancia de las remesas, y la pérdida de nuestro capital humano como consecuencia de la emigración.

La evaluación y autoevaluación institucional en las escuelas
Authors: Revilla Figueroa Diana
Published: November 2022

En un contexto en el que las instituciones educativas enfrentan una creciente competencia y exigencias por cumplir con las disposiciones y requisitos del sector Educación, es indispensable desarrollar estrategias que permitan a las escuelas ser competitivas. Uno de los instrumentos más eficaces para lograr este propósito es la evaluación y autoevaluación institucional, herramienta que a su vez puede enfocarse de distintas maneras pero orientada hacia la mejora de la calidad en las instituciones. La evaluación y autoevaluación en las escuelas expone los resultados de una investigación realizada en una institución educativa de gestión privada. Presenta de manera teórica y metodológica el Modelo de Autoevaluación Institucional Global con Apoyo Externo, el cual solo requiere de afirmar una cultura evaluativa y del interés de los miembros de la institución educativa para poder ser aplicado. Se trata además de un modelo que, como descubrirá el lector, puede adaptarse a las características propias de cada institución.

Sus recursos críticos son útiles para penetrar en los diferentes códigos que configuran un texto, exhibiendo tanto en lo que afirma como en lo que silencia. A partir de una rigurosa lectura de los textos de Pedro de Cieza de León, Juan de Betanzos y Polo Ondegardo, Lydia Fossa nos ofrece importantes hallazgos para repensar el proceso de colonizacion española.
Reconceptualising Afrophobia in post-apartheid South Africa: a conflict transformational perspective
Authors: Lötter Casper , Bradshaw Gavin
Published: November 2022

Xenophobic violence has assumed a regular appearance in the body politic of South Africa. Such xenophobia/racism is mainly targeted at migrants from elsewhere in Africa. The phenomenon flies in the face of expectations, given the history of the struggle against apartheid, and the supportive role of the frontline states in support of that struggle. It runs counter to the inclusive ethos of the ANC government, the Rainbow Nation and South Africa’s progressive constitution. This contribution, in the spirit of conflict transformation, focuses on the occurrence of xenophobia in South Africa. Given the complexity of the context, it seeks to explain the phenomenon, using a selection of commonly used theoretical approaches, mediated through the lenses of the Just World theory, and the notion of state crimes. It challenges any notion of South Africa as a post-conflict society, finds significant government culpability for the episodes, and attempts to provide corrective policy advice, using a dynamic systems theoretical approach.
Xenophobia and the end of ontological ubuntu
Authors: Sule Peter
Published: November 2022

A central notion of Ubuntu depicts it as a philosophy unique to African affinity and views Africans as communalistic and Westerners as individualistic. Given the reality of xenophobic practices, this paper advances arguments that question this thesis, arguing that the basis for such peculiarity does not inhere in Ubuntu as a distinctive African philosophy; rather it is reflective of the stage of development on each side of the divide. Pursuant of this argument, the paper distinguishes between ontological and axiological Ubuntu. While ontological Ubuntu (OU) refers to, among other constructs, the ‘authentic mode of being African’, axiological Ubuntu (AU) is a prescriptive moral ideal to which all humanity ought to aspire in an era of modernity. Using the method of critical analysis, the paper submits that xenophobia and other forms of socio-political exclusions greatly contradict the central tenets or humanism of OU and render it untenable in modern times. Conversely, AU is reflective of modernity with its emphasis on individualistic modes of production. Modernity has come to stay and Africa must approach it, not by OU or a ‘narrative of return’ to a philosophy uniquely African, but by AU, an ethical theory that must guide our pursuit of a humane society not just as Africans, but as human beings. To this end, and contrary to the argument that Ubuntu has ‘reached its end’ in its entirety, the paper concludes that something is left of it, though not uniquely African.
The role of Pre-service teacher’s preparation programs in improving the teaching performance of early career mathematics teachers
Authors: Tabieh Ahmad A. S. , Alsmadi Mohareb Ali , Abu-Loum Khaled , Al-Haj Islam , Sadieh Nour
Published: November 2022

This study aimed to investigate the necessary teaching competencies for early career mathematics teachers and identify the degree to which these competencies are represented in pre-service teachers' preparation programs. The study also aimed to identify the most effective teaching strategies that should be included in preparation programs. The study was applied to (142) early career mathematics teachers in Jordanian public schools with no more than three years of experience. The study relied on a mixed methodology based on quantitative and qualitative approaches. A questionnaire and semi-structured interviews were used to collect the data. The study concluded that teaching competencies fall within four areas: namely, knowledge competencies, implementation competencies, assessment competencies, and personal competencies. The pre-service preparation programs succeeded in preparing mathematics teachers well by acquiring these competencies and providing them with personal skills that provide them with effective and continuous communication with their students. Mathematics teachers find that the most effective teaching strategies are those that focus on students' interests and that the infrastructure and capacity of the classrooms have a major role in limiting the ability of mathematics teachers to apply what they have learned in the preparation programs. Mathematics teachers recommend that graduates who enter the teaching profession should pay attention to continuous improvement by enrolling in courses that enable them to keep pace with cognitive, professional, and technical developments in mathematics.
Keywords: pre-service preparation programs, early career mathematics teachers, teaching competencies, teaching performance.

Authors: AYGÜN Ümit , BÖLÜKBAŞI Murat
Published: November 2022

Objective: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the radiological and functional results of titanium elastic nail (TEN), which was used as a surgical method in pediatric long bone diaphyseal fractures between 5-15 years of age, by comparing it with the clinical features of the patient and the fracture.Methods: In this study, 44 patients (11 girls, 33 boys) aged 5-15 years (mean 9.86 ±2.84) were included. The clinical features of the patient, family satisfaction, evaluation of the fracture according to Flynn Criteria, time to bone union, stay in the hospital, and school absence was examined.Results: TEN was applied mostly to the femur (n;18), tibia (n;14), and forearm (n;12) diaphysis fractures, respectively. Most of the fractures were seen as a result of high energy and closed middle diaphysis, the transverse fracture pattern was the most. Most of the fracture surgeries were performed with the closed method. The family satisfaction of the patients was at a high level. In the evaluation of fractures according to Flynn Criteria, most of the results were excellent, but no poor results were observed. Bone union time was higher in patients aged ten years and older and undergoing open surgery, and less in transverse fracture shape (p<0.05). The time not to attend school was highest in open fracture type, tibia fractures, and open surgery patients (p<0.05). Ulna union time was 13.1 ± 1.8 weeks, which was higher than forearm fractures (p<0.05). The hospital stay was 3.50 ± 0.79 / 4.29 ± 1.54 / 3.33 ± 0.49 days in femur/tibia/forearm fractures, respectively, and was the highest in tibia fractures (p<0.05).Conclusions: TEN is an effective and safe method for long bone diaphyseal fractures in children aged 5-15 years, with low complication rates and positive effects on the patient and the health system.

Published: November 2022

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) remains a public health problem that needs attention in various countries, including in Indonesia that has the 4th largest DM cases globally. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that, by 2030, the number of people with DM will be twice higher than the current number which is 180 million people worldwide. Diabetes mellitus can be prevented and avoided by taking control of the risk factors. The purpose of this study was to assess the risk factors of Diabetes Mellitus in Indonesia. This is a secondary data analysis of the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) 5 which was a cross sectional survey. To analyze risk factors of DM, Chi-square and logistic regression test were used. The risk factors analyzed included sex, age, marital status, history of hypertension, cholesterol levels, obesity, smoking habit, employment status, habit of consuming fast food, consumption of sweet foods, and consumption soft drinks. Significant risk  factors  of  diabetes mellitus included age (OR = 5.28, 95% CI: 4.37 – 6.37; p value = 0.001), marital status (OR = 1.69, 95% CI: 1.36 – 2.09; p value = 0.001), history of hypertension (OR = 2.67, 95% CI: 2.25 – 3.17; p value = 0.001), cholesterol levels (OR = 4.36, 95% CI: 3.58 – 5.31; p value = 0.001), employment status (OR = 1.52, 95% CI: 1.29 – 1.80; p value = 0.001), and habit of consuming sweet foods (OR = 0.63, 95% CI: 0.48 – 0.83; p value = 0.002).

Authors: Wulandari Fatqiatul , Mahmudiono Trias , Rifqi Mahmud Aditya
Published: November 2022

In developing countries, low birth weight (LBW) is still considered a major public health problem among infants. The national prevalence of LBW in Indonesia is quite high and ranked 6th for LBW cases among countries in Southeast Asia. This paper aimed to study the determinant of LBW especially in the urban area of Indonesia due to the wide availability of household survey data and the limited research of LBW with a large number of samples. This study used the latest data from the 2017 Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS). A bivariate analysis using the Chi-square test and a multivariate analysis tested by logistic regression was done. As many as 7,321 women of childbearing age-aged 15-49 years from the urban areas were selected as the final sample. A number of 6.7% of infants were born with LBW with a mean birth weight of 3,677 grams. This study showed a significant relationship between birth interval and maternal complication and LBW (OR:0.74; OR:2.21). Women’s level of education also appeared to be significantly related to LBW (OR:0.82).  The conclusion of the study was that birth interval, maternal complications, and mother’s education level were closely related to LBW. Therefore, collaboration between health services, health centers, government sectors, and academicians is needed to provide standard ANC services followed by routine maternal health education is expected to reduce LBW numbers in urban areas of Indonesia.
How do Petrol Prices Respond to Variations in Crude oil and the Exchange Rate? Evidence from South Africa
Authors: Naape Baneng , Mathebula Ndzalama
Published: November 2022

This study investigated the response of petrol prices to variations in domestic and international components. Monthly time series data spanning from 2002M1 to 2021M12 was analysed by means of econometric modelling including the structural Vector autoregression. The structural impulse response function indicated that basic petrol prices respond positively to their own shocks and to shocks in brent crude oil prices and this response was found to be substantial in size. In contrast, basic petrol prices respond negatively to shocks in exchange rates albeit the response is small. The variance decomposition revealed that variations in basic petrol prices are largely explained by their own shocks in the short run and by shocks in brent crude oil prices in the long run. Domestically, petrol pump prices respond positively to shocks in basic petrol prices, inland transport costs, wholesale, and retail profit-margins while on the contrary, the response of petrol pump prices was found to be negative towards shocks in the road accident fund levy and muted towards shocks in fuel taxes. Given the rise in crude oil prices, the government can consider reviewing the current fuel structure and suspending several fuel levies indefinitely to provide the much-needed financial relief to households and businesses.

Published: November 2022

The current global pandemic has forced many customers to carry most of their purchases and other transactions to the virtual environment. The patronage of the online retailers will be affected by how they are perceived by the customers. It is on this basis that the researcher intends to study the effect of Aaker’s Model of brand personality on customer choice of branded e-retailing outfits. The researcher adopted a cross-sectional research design using the descriptive method to explain the analysis of the data administered. Primary data were gathered through online survey administered to the sample size of 397 undergraduate and postgraduate students of the University of Lagos, participating on a voluntary basis. However, 274 responses were fit and analysed using the Social Statistic package for Social Sciences (SPSS 20). The result revealed that four of the five dimensions of the Aaker’s model which are sincerity, excitement, competence and ruggedness have significant effect on consumers’ choice decision for electronic retailers while sophistication have no relationship whatsoever with customer choice of e-retailing outfits. The findings show that majority of University of Lagos students perceived Jumia to be competent, Jiji.Ng as rugged, Konga as competent, Olx.com.ng as rugged, SME Market Hub as competent, Slot.ng as competent, Obeezi as rugged and Payport as competent. Based on the findings, it is recommended that e-retailing outfits in order to sustain customer choice will need to improve on the four identified variables which are excitement, competence, ruggedness and sincerity to ensure sustainability.

Aims. Acute cholecystitis is one of the most common emergencies of general surgery. Although there is an increase in the incidence of acute cholecystitis in the summer season when the temperature increases, its cause is not fully understood. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between acute cholecystitis and temperature.

Material and Methods: 271 patients admitted to the general surgery service in 2021 were included in this study. Patient data were obtained retrospectively from patient files and data from national centers were used for meteorological data. Conformity of continuous variables to normal distribution was evaluated using visual and analytical methods.

Results: According to the percentage distribution of cases, acute cholecystitis was most common in summer and least in winter. A very strong positive correlation was found between monthly mean temperature values and monthly incidence of acute cholecystitis (correlation coefficient: r= 0.759 and p=0.004).

Conclusions: The incidence of acute cholecystitis also increases with increasing ambient temperature, and this is important in terms of planning health services.

The policy of protectionism has been adopted by a number of countries including Indonesia with the aim of protecting and improving the quality of domestic products. One form of the protectionism policy is through the Local Content Requirement which is realized by the Domestic Component Level (TKDN) policy. This policy affects the implementation of international selection process process (popularly known as ‘tenders’) which are a special form of government procurement of goods/services. This procurement is guaranteed by regulations due to the involvement of foreign parties in the selection process which can determine the outcome of the procurement. This research departs from the problem of international trade protectionism policies and the influence of TKDN policies in the regulations of the government procurement of goods/services which governs the international selection process. The research method used is normative juridical along with non-interactive qualitative. The results of the research conclude that the protectionism policy adopted by Indonesia encourages TKDN obligations in the procurement of government goods/services as one of the considerations to become one of the determining factors in the passage of international selection. This policy creates space for the use of domestic products to be applied in the process of government procurement of goods/services. Nonetheless, the TKDN policy on the one hand impedes the smooth running of the international selection process by limiting potential foreign participants in the international procurement mechanism. In addition, this research also concludes that in practice through cases there are conflicts with obligations regarding TKDN which are not fully considered in government goods/services procurement activities.

This study aims to analyze the characteristics of certificates of ownership of flats owned by foreign citizens and its implementation as regulated under the Job Creation Law from a social justice perspective. This article uses normative legal research methods. The sources of data used are secondary sources of data which include primary and secondary legal materials. The method of collecting legal materials is carried out by means of a literature study. The analysis of legal materials used is carried out prescriptively through a statutory and conceptual approach. The results of the study concluded that the characteristics of flat ownership certificates by foreign nationals are regulated in the Basic Agrarian Law whose regulation cannot be separated from the principle of land attachment, besides that it is also regulated in the Law on Flat Units. The implementation of certificates of ownership rights to apartment units built on state land for foreign nationals as regulated by the Job Creation Law is not in accordance with the principle of fair distribution of land.
What Affects Vocational Teachers' Acceptance and Use of ICT in Teaching? A Large-scale Survey of Higher Vocational College Teachers in China

This study aimed to explore what factors affect teachers’ acceptance and instructional use of ICT in Chinese higher vocational colleges. Grounded in the modified UTAUT model, the current study investigated the direct and indirect effects of teachers’ performance expectancy, effort expectancy, external conditions, and behavioral intentions on using ICT in teaching. A total of 6087 teachers from 219 vocational colleges in 28 provinces in China participated in a large-scale survey. Structural equation modeling revealed that the teachers’ psychological perceptions (including performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and intention to use ICT technology) and the external support conditions (including professional development support, infrastructures, the climate of organizational reform and innovation, and teacher performance assessment mechanisms) significantly directly affect the use of ICT in Chinese higher vocational college teachers’ teaching practice. Moreover, this study confirmed the mediating role of teachers’ intention to use ICT in teaching in the relationship between teachers’ psychological perceptions and ICT instructional usage behavior. However, there were differences in the significance of these variables in the chain effect of teachers’ intention to use ICT. These findings expand our understanding of the factors influencing ICT use in teaching among VET teachers in China and thus provide practical implications for higher vocational college managers to promote teachers’ ICT teaching behaviors.
Symmetric Encoding-decoding Framework without Backpropagation
Authors: Zhai Pengyuan
Published: November 2022

We propose a forward-only multi-layer encoding-decoding framework based on the principle of Maximal Coding Rate Reduction (MCR$^2$), an information-theoretic metric that measures a statistical distance between two sets of feature vectors up to the second moment. The encoder directly transforms data vectors themselves via gradient ascent to maximize the MCR$^2$ distance between different classes in the feature space, resulting in class-wise mutually orthogonal subspace representations. The decoder follows a process symmetric to the encoder, and transforms the subspace feature vectors via gradient descent to minimize the MCR$^2$ distance between the reconstructed data and the original data. We show that the encoder transforms data to linear discriminative representations without breaking the higher-order manifolds, and the decoder reconstructs the data with high fidelity.

Изложена процедура генерации решений уравнения Шредингера методом статистических испытаний Монте-Карло. В качестве демонстрационной квантовой системы, иллюстрирующей данный генератор, выступают кластеры воды: гексамер 6(H$_2$O), додекамер 12(H$_2$O) и тетрадекамер 14(H$_2$O). Генератор решений уравнений Шредингера выводится из предложенного автором ранее алгоритма, основанного на пересечении конечно-разностного и Монте-Карло подходов, а также апробированных на кластерах воды способах пространственного сведения центров рассеяния ядер частиц и центров рассеяния электронов произвольной квантовой системы. В результате такого сведения оказалось возможным построить алгоритм генерации неограниченного количества различных пространственных конструкций облаков рассеяния ядер частиц и электронов при одной и той же энергии диссоциации квантовой системы.

Published: November 2022

Рассмотрена модель образования «теплых» гроз, учитывающая фрактальную структуру облачной среды, основанная на дифференциальном уравнении в частных производных дробного порядка по временной переменной. В аналитическом виде найдено решение уравнения модели. С помощью численных расчетов показана зависимость накопления заряда и напряженности электрического поля в «теплых» грозах от фрактальности облачной среды. Полученные данные подтверждают, что электрофизические процессы, протекающие в теплых грозах, тесно связаны с параметром фрактальности самой среды.

Представлены результаты численных расчетов пространственного распределения
инкрементов градиентно-дрейфовой неустойчивости в области развитых множественных экваториальных ионосферных пузырей. Результаты численного моделирования пространственной структуры экваториальных ионосферных пузырей, а также данные измерений в областях развитых плазменных пузырей, как спутниковых,
так и наземных, показывают наличие в этих областях больших градиентов электронной концентрации, достигающих значений от 10$^{-4}$ м$^{-1}$ до 10$^{-3}$ м$^{-1}$ и больших
скоростей дрейфового переноса, превышающих 1000 м/с. При таких параметрах
плазмы в области плазменных пузырей возможно развитие мелкомасштабных неоднородностей, усиливающихся вследствие разных типов неустойчивостей при положительных инкрементах. Исследуется пространственное распределение инкремента градиентно-дрейфовой неустойчивости. При неустойчивости этого типа могут генерироваться мелкомасштабные неоднородности электронной концентрации,
пространственно-временные масштабы которых характерны для экваториального
F-рассеяния. Вследствие развитых плазменных пузырей, на фронтах которых развиваются градиентно-дрейфовые неустойчивости, исследование проведено в приближении сильной вытянутости плазменных пузырей вдоль силовых линий геомагнитного поля. Это позволяет использовать в качестве фоновой электронной концентрации результаты численного моделирования неустойчивости с помощью двумерного приближения модели неустойчивости Рэлея-Тейлора. В отличие от предыдущих работ авторов, здесь исследование направлено на получение пространственного распределения инкремента как для разных конфигураций плазменных пузырей, так и для различных соотношений волновых чисел. При исследовании особенностей распределения инкремента градиентно-дрейфовой неустойчивости в области развития плазменных пузырей необходимо учитывать существенную неоднородность фоновых значений электронной концентрации и скоростей дрейфа. В
работе это достигается сравнением длин волн с параметрами зон развития этих
волн, в частности, оценены пространственная и временная протяженности области
больших положительных значений инкремента нарастания. Эти оценки и определяют выбор диапазона волновых чисел. Получено, что градиенты электронной концентрации на фронтах развитых ионосферных пузырей могут быть эффективным
механизмом развития градиентно-дрейфовой неустойчивости, инкремент градиентно-дрейфовой неустойчивости на фронтах плазменных пузырей достигает значений 0.01 с$^{-1}$, причем для множественных пузырей эти значения немного меньше,
чем для одиночного пузыря. Такие значения с учетом времени существования областей с инкрементами более 1000 с, создают условия для развития мелкомасштабных неоднородностей на «ножках» плазменных пузырей.

Objective. To study the vitamin D availability of patients with bronchial asthma in different seasons of the year, depending on the severity, level of control over the disease, frequent ARVI, gender and age. Patients and methods. A comparative analysis of vitamin D provision in 187 patients with bronchial asthma in different seasons of the year, depending on the severity, level of control over the disease, frequent acute respiratory viral infections, gender and age, was carried out Results. Average vitamin D levels were normally recorded only in summer, and the lowest – in autumn and winter. In patients with mild asthma, vitamin D levels were significantly higher than in moderate and severe severity in all seasons of the year. With complete control of the disease, significantly higher levels of vitamin D were observed than in the absence of it also in all seasons. Vitamin D deficiency is more often registered in patients with a frequency of acute respiratory viral infections more than 6 times a year in autumn (p = 0.0410), winter (p = 0.0003) and spring (p = 0.0001); in girls in autumn (p = 0.0389), and in boys in winter and spring (p = 0.0311, p = 0.0388); in adolescents in autumn (p = 0.0289), winter (p = 0.0321) and spring (p = 0.0391). Conclusion. Vitamin D deficiency was significantly more often recorded in moderate and severe the course of asthma, in the absence of disease control, frequent acute respiratory infections, in adolescents, especially in seasons with low levels of insolation; in girls – in autumn, and in boys – in winter and spring.
