Authors: Lombardi Jeannette , DelPrete Hillary
Published: December 2023

Forensic anthropology involves the application of anthroposcopic and anthropometric techniques to analyze human skeletal remains. This research outlines the assessment of a set of human skeletal remains for characteristics of sex and stature using forensic anthropological techniques to conclude whether various bones in a human skeleton are in agreement regarding these characteristics. The data for this study was collected using sliding calipers, spreading calipers, a soft measuring tape, and an osteometric board. In addition to the anthropometric data collected for statistical analysis, anthroposcopic data was also used to visually assess the individual. After the data collection concluded, various methods were applied for assessing sex and estimating stature that are used by a multitude of researchers in the field of forensic anthropology. Of the studied individual, the sex was determined to be female and the stature found in the range of five foot five to five foot six inches as determined by a majority of the results. Albeit being affected by some limitations, the study contributed to knowledge in the application of assessment methods for these two characteristics and how well various bones agreed regarding the sex and stature of the individual.

Published: December 2023

Fracture is a condition where the continuity of bone tissue is broken. Intertrochanter fractures are fractures that occur in the pelvic bones with a transverse line from the greater trochanter to the lesser trochanter. Broken bones are a potential or real threat to a person's integrity, so they experience physiological and psychological disorders that can cause reactions in the form of pain. Traumatic pain due to bone fractures that damage healthy tissue. The first treatment is to observe whether there are other accompanying injuries, after that skin traction is applied which is considered effective before performing surgery to reduce pain. Objective: to determine the reduction in pain scale in intertrochanteric fracture patients after skin traction was applied. The method in this research uses a pre-experimental design with a one group pretest-posttest design. Data collection techniques used questionnaire sheets and the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) pain scale. Data analysis used paired T test. The results showed that the intensity of pain before and after being given skin traction had decreased. The conclusion in the study was that the installation of skin traction before surgery could reduce the pain scale in intertrochanter fracture patients.

Type 2 diabetes Mellitus is a chronic disease that requires lifelong treatment. In the course of the disease, if blood sugar levels are not controlled, it can lead to complications of other diseases. The variety of antidiabetic drugs used in therapy can lead to differences in the cost effectiveness of therapy. The aims of this study is to analyze the cost-effectiveness of antidiabetic therapy in outpatients at Dr. Moewardi Hospital. Data collection in this study was carried out retrospectively using medical records of outpatients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and billing data from the hospital The data obtained were then presented descriptively and the ACER value was calculated for the 2 most widely used drug groups. The results of this study showed that 30 patients received a combination of Insulin Analog (Basal) + Insulin Analog (Prandial/Premixed) and and 11 patients received Insulin Analog (Basal/ Prandial/ Premixed). The percentage effectiveness of combination therapy Insulin Analog (Basal) + Insulin Analog (Prandial/ Premixed) was higher than Insulin Analog (Basal/ Prandial/ Premixed) (83.33 vs 72.72). The ACER value of Insulin Analog (Basal) + Insulin Analog (Prandial/ Premixed) (IDR 13.802,42) is lower than Insulin Analog (Basal/ Prandial/ Premixed) (IDR 18.356). Based on the cost effectiveness table, the combination of Insulin Analog (Basal) + Insulin Analog (Prandial / Premixed) is more effective so that the combination of Insulin Analog (Basal) + Insulin Analog (Prandial / Premixed) is more cost effective than Insulin Analog (Basal / Prandial / Premixed).

How Harmful Brand Hate Can Be: The Moderating Role of Neuroticism and Extraversion
Authors: Dos Santos Patrícia Marques , Bairrada Cristela Maia , De Matos Coelho Arnaldo Fernandes
Published: December 2023

This research analyses some of the antecedents and consequences of brand hate and examines the moderating effects of neuroticism and extraversion personality traits on behavioral outcomes. After collecting 375 responses, the data analysis was based on the structural equation modeling. Results show that symbolic incongruity, ideological incompatibility, and perceived value are predictors of brand hate, and that brand hate influences negative word-of-mouth, anti-brand actions and complaining. The relationship between brand hate and behavioral results are reinforced for consumers with high neuroticism traits and, in contrast, are attenuated in consumers with high extraversion traits. This investigation innovates by combining signaling theory and expectancy violation theories to explain the emergence of brand hate and its impacts on brand-related outcomes. It particularly explores the possibility of a curvilinear relationship, where brand hate tends to grow exponentially with the intensity of the signals.

Published: December 2023

As one of the largest world's economies, China’s economy plays an important role at regional and global levels. In this context, with the fast opening steps of the Chinese economy to international markets, the Chinese Central Bank (PBC or PBOC) has adjusted its mechanisms to the needs of local and international economies. Chinese monetary policy is designed to keep prices and economic growth stable and to ensure the country’s economic development. The Chinese Central Bank has a significant influence over Chinese interest rates, interbank rates, and changes in liquidity and credit. The main goal of this research paper is to describe the role of the Chinese Central Bank in delivering Chinese monetary policy and its changes over the past few years. Our research paper is dedicated to verifying how the Chinese Central Bank's press releases are useful indicators for the future trend of market interest rates after constructing a numerical index representative of expansive or restrictive net signals contained in any of the PBC Communications examined. An empirical analysis over Chinese Monetary Policy Communications (Reports) is included in this research paper, presenting how the Central Bank of China is implementing its monetary policy in order to influence the development of its economic growth through its market interest rates, liquidity and credit movement.
Analysis of Structural Failure of Cerucuk Galam Foundation (Galam Wood Pile Foundation) in Banjarmasin Swamp Land in Indonesia
Authors: Huzairin Muhammad Deddy , Andini Dila Nadya , Oktaviana Anna
Published: December 2023

The cerucuk (pile) galam foundation made from local wood is the most widely used foundation for houses in Banjarmasin which is a swamp land. The cerucuk galam foundation consists of 4 main elements, namely: columns, sunduk, lapak and galam pile. However, in recent years there have been problems that are strongly indicated to be related to this type of foundation, namely the collapse of 47 house buildings from 2018 to 2023, and many more cases of damage that did not cause a collapse. There fore it is necessary to analyze the causes of structural failure of this type of foundation, as a preliminary to a series of studies to obtain a safer type of foundation. To find out the cause, this is done through direct observations in the field, interviews with experienced carpenters, mainstream and online media, as well as calculations of the loads and stresses that occur in the model house compared to the maximum load and stress. The results of the analysis show 2 main causes of the failure of the foundation structure. First, the broken sunduk on some of the columns with the heaviest loads, which is indicated by the high bending and shear stresses exceeding the maximum stress. Second, the weathering of the galam head which causes a decrease in the maximum bearing capacity, which causes a shift or detachment of lapak from the galam head. Weathering occurs because the galam head is not completely submerged.

Published: December 2023

El desarrollo de la infraestructura de transporte desempeña un papel fundamental en el fomento de actividades turísticas al mejorar la accesibilidad a diversos destinos. La calidad de las carreteras pavimentadas, en particular, influye en el flujo del comercio y el turismo. La investigación se centró en evaluar la influencia de la adición de escoria metalúrgica (EM) en las propiedades mecánicas de los pavimentos flexibles. Se utilizó una muestra de 60 briquetas que se sometieron a pruebas utilizando el método Marshall con diferentes niveles de adición de EM; 5 %, 8 %, 12 % y 15 %. Los resultados revelaron que la combinación de un 4,5 % de contenido de asfalto (CA) y un 12 % EM demostró ser adecuada en términos de estabilidad, alcanzando un valor de 1540,3 kg, así como un flujo promedio de 2,73 cm. En consecuencia, se concluye que la inclusión de EM mejora las propiedades mecánicas de la capa asfáltica, lo que sugiere que este material podría ser utilizado en el diseño de mezclas para pavimentación vial. Se recomienda que el porcentaje de EM a utilizar se encuentre en el rango del 5 % al 10 % para mantener un equilibrio adecuado entre estabilidad y flujo en la mezcla.

Authors: Ramírez Aquino Marco , Vildoso Flores Alejandro
Published: December 2023

El creciente interés por encontrar alternativas sostenibles en la industria de la construcción y en el proceso de fabricación de ladrillos ha promovido la eficiente reutilización de fuentes como las cenizas de diversos materiales. Por ende, el estudio tuvo como objetivo determinar el efecto de las cenizas de la corteza de Apacharama (CCA) en las propiedades físico-mecánicas de los ladrillos macizos. La muestra de estudio para los ensayos consistió en un total de 72 unidades, variando los porcentajes de adición de CCA (5 %, 7,5 % y 10 %). Se analizaron propiedades físicas y mecánicas, como la absorción de agua, el alabeo, y la resistencia a la compresión axial (por unidad, pila y murete) y diagonal (murete). Los resultados de las pruebas revelaron que, aunque la adición de 10 % de CCA mejoró la resistencia a la compresión axial y diagonal, también se observó un aumento en el porcentaje de absorción a los 28 días, superando los estándares establecidos. Sin embargo, el comportamiento del alabeo se mantuvo dentro de límites aceptables. Estos hallazgos, posiblemente fueron favorecidos en parte por la composición química. De manera que surge la necesidad de optimizar los porcentajes de adición para equilibrar las propiedades sin comprometer otras características.

Palabras clave: cenizas de la corteza de Apacharama; innovación; ladrillos macizos.
Palacio Astoreca, recuperación de un símbolo del esplendor salitrero del siglo XIX. Puesta en valor Monumento Histórico Región de Tarapacá, Chile
Authors: Contreras Rojo Carlos
Published: December 2023

Los bienes patrimoniales han sido esenciales en la política, especialmente en el siglo XIX donde construir un patrimonio nacional era clave para legitimar el orden y la nación. Recientemente, se han suscitado debates globales y locales sobre el paradigma cultural que desafían la visión hegemónica del patrimonio e instigan reflexiones en torno a cómo se perciben las expresiones culturales. Un ejemplo significativo de esta arquitectura es el Palacio Astoreca, un símbolo de la burguesía ligada a la industria salitrera. Después de su construcción, esta pasó a propiedad estatal y se convirtió en intendencia regional, para luego transformarse en un espacio cultural informal. Esta investigación plantea la recuperación de este edificio patrimonial. Para ello, se argumenta en torno a los valores existentes en el inmueble, su historia y las estrategias de puesta en valor para dar respuesta a las necesidades contemporáneas por parte de la ciudadanía para su reconocimiento como un lugar de encuentro con la historia local.
Arequipa y la revolución catalítica del espacio urbano entre 1868 y 1940
Authors: Zeballos Velarde Carlos
Published: December 2023

Se denomina catálisis urbana al proceso en el que un elemento de la ciudad –edificio o espacio público- genera un impacto multiplicador en las características y roles de otros elementos circundantes. Este artículo explora el efecto catalítico que significó para Arequipa la transformación de la Plaza de Armas tras el terremoto de 1868 y las consecuencias que tuvo tanto en otros espacios circundantes, como en la arquitectura y en la propia percepción del paisaje urbano por los habitantes de aquella época. Las ideas higienistas, traídas por inmigrantes ingleses e italianos tras la construcción del ferrocarril, promovieron una revolución en la forma de experimentar y construir el espacio urbano, pasando de una visión utilitaria de un pueblo colonial rural a la construcción deliberada de una ciudad-jardín moderna en medio del desierto. Para esta investigación, se integra el estudio de fuentes primarias y secundarias, como la revisión documental y fotográfica, con el análisis de sintaxis espacial y el modelado en 3D para poder reconstruir las características de estos escenarios.
La comunidad de Ladera y la calidad de vida urbana, Una aproximación metodológica para establecer la percepción de las condiciones de habitabilidad interior y exterior de sus habitantes.
Authors: Osorio Hermoza Paulo Simón
Published: December 2023

En el Perú, desde la década del 90 del siglo pasado, se instituyó la política neoliberal que, según datos del censo nacional del 2017, ha generado que un 70 % de la población de la ciudad de Lima viva en asentamientos humanos informales con muy inadecuadas condiciones de habitabilidad, sobre todo en las laderas.
Como parte de un estudio doctoral sobre la relación de la calidad de vida urbana de la población para la habitabilidad (interior y exterior) en comunidades de ladera en Lima Norte, se ha determinado la necesidad de generar una metodología para establecer la percepción de las condiciones de habitabilidad por parte de sus habitantes.
De acuerdo a lo propuesto en el Nuevo Plan Nacional de vivienda y tomando como base la Ley No. 31313 (post pandemia COVID) en la que se establece dos dimensiones en cuanto a la habitabilidad —ya que se habla de la vivienda y el barrio—, el estudio plantea seis categorías para establecer las condiciones de habitabilidad. Finalmente, se elabora un cuestionario de 30 reactivos que establece cuál es la percepción de la población sobre estas seis categorías que servirán para establecer las bases que permitan la elaboración de un modelo de adaptabilidad a fin de mejorar su propia habitabilidad.

Authors: Şengül-Binat Hafizenur , Kırca Toklucu Ayşegül
Published: December 2023

The fig fruit, which has a short seasonal availability due to its perishable nature, was subjected to a canning process, and the effects of canning on phenolics and antioxidant properties were evaluated. For this purpose, the most popular fig varieties grown in Türkiye, namely Sarilop (yellow coloured) and Bursa Siyahi (dark purple coloured), were canned in different filling mediums such as syrup, water, and fig juice, as peeled or unpeeled. The canned figs were also stored at room temperature for 12 months, and the changes in phenolics and antioxidant properties during storage were determined. The canning process preserved a great part of the phenolics and antioxidant capacity. After canning, the Sarilop figs experienced a minor reduction in their total phenolic content, whereas no significant change was observed in the total phenolic content of the Bursa Siyahi figs. The total antioxidant activity of the figs increased by canning, which was observed more clearly for the unpeeled Bursa Siyahi figs. At the end of the storage, both Sarilop and Bursa Siyahi figs canned with fig juice had higher total phenolics, total antioxidant activity, and individual phenolics than the figs canned with other filling mediums. During the 12-month storage period, the most stable phenolic compounds found in the canned figs were rutin and gallic acid. However, the monomeric anthocyanins of the Bursa Siyahi figs were negatively affected by the storage and canning process.

Published: December 2023

The symbiotic effect of acetic acid bacteria and yeast on bacterial cellulose (BC) synthesis in kombucha was explored. Firstly, the optimal culture ratio of acetic acid bacteria and yeast was optimised through single factor and orthogonal test. The results showed that when Komagataeibacter intermedius:Brettanomyces bruxellensis:Zygosaccharomyces bisporus ratio was 1:10:10, and the inoculation amounts of K. intermedius, B. bruxellensis, and Z. bisporus were 104, 105, and 105 CFU/mL, respectively, the yield of BC was the highest, and the dry basis was 5.51 g/L. It was determined that the metabolites of B. bruxellensis and Z. bisporus could promote the synthesis of BC by K. intermedius. In addition, the composition of yeast filtrate was analysed by amino acid analyser, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and high performance liquid chromatograph (HPLC). Results showed that 16 amino acids were detected in yeast filtrate, and cysteine was only detected in yeast filtrate. The increase in isoleucine before and after fermentation was the highest, which was 11.64 times that of the control group. The increase in aspartic acid and glycine were second and third, accounting for 60.00 and 41.67%, respectively. The main volatile substances were alcohols, accounting for 84.89%, of which the relative content of ethanol was the highest at 77.35%. The relative contents of 3-methyl-1-butanol and phenylethanol were also high, accounting for 4.13 and 3.14%, respectively. Tartaric, citric, and succinic acids were detected in the yeast filtrate. The chemical species did not change before and after fermentation, but the content decreased. Vitamins B2 and B6 were detected in yeast filtrate, and the species and content did not change significantly before and after fermentation. A theoretical basis for kombucha fermentation and BC synthesis was provided.

Published: December 2023

Eggs are suitable for the processing of set yoghurt as milk replacements, but there is no yoghurt mainly made from eggs. In the present work, production formula was designed and optimised for high-quality egg-based yoghurt processing by improving water holding capacity, aroma, texture, and taste using single factor experiment and D-optimal mixture design. Results showed that with optimised formula (whole liquid egg, 100 g; water, 180 g; sucrose, 30.89 g; diacetyl tartaric acid ester of mono(di)glycerides, 0.28 g; gelatine, 0.112 g; gellan gum, 0.14 g; and β-cyclodextrin, 0.56 g), the product showed high sensory evaluation score, fine viscosity, as well as preferable hardness and suitable fracturability. SDS-PAGE electrophoretogram indicated that the proteins in egg-based yoghurt was degraded during fermentation, which might have contributed to the improvement of gel structure and taste. Based on the SEM images, the prepared egg-based yoghurt had smoother, stronger, and more compact gel network microstructure when compared with milk-based yoghurt.
Sucrose reduction and addition of agave syrup and inulin in gummies with strawberry and blackberry pulp: Impact on physicochemical, antioxidant, and sensory characteristics

Published: December 2023

The current trend in the food industry involves the search for new formulations and processes to produce processed foods with enhanced nutritional value and improved functional properties that promote consumer health. Therefore, the present work aimed to investigate the physicochemical, antioxidant, and sensory properties of gummies made from strawberry and blackberry pulp. These gummies were formulated with reduced sucrose content and supplemented with agave syrup and inulin. Six formulations were developed using three levels of sucrose reduction (SR) namely 0, 40, and 50%, combined with two types of natural fruit pulp: strawberry (S) and blackberry (B). For the formulations with 40 and 50% SR, agave syrup and inulin were incorporated at a 1:1 ratio. The evaluation encompassed nutritional content, antioxidant activity, textural properties, and the overall acceptability of the various gummy products. Results demonstrated that SR led to a decrease in the caloric content of the gummies, from 279.38 to 178.69 kcal per 100 g. Gummies containing a blend of inulin and agave syrup exhibited an average of 3.69 times higher dietary fibre content. Moreover, the antioxidant compounds inherent in strawberry and blackberry pulp were effectively preserved during processing. Samples with 50% SR displayed an increase of up to 24.80 and 34.89% in phenolic and flavonoid contents, respectively, as compared to those with 0% SR. These samples also demonstrated elevated antioxidant activity as assessed by the ABTS and DPPH assays, reaching up to 109.4 µM Trolox per 100 g, and an inhibition rate of 77.9%, respectively. However, the incorporation of SR in the formulations had a noticeable impact on the textural properties of the gummies, particularly in terms of gumminess and chewiness. In terms of sensory analysis, it was observed that gummies labelled as S-SR-50 and B-SR-50 exhibited higher levels of acceptability, primarily attributed to their enhanced aroma, colour, and taste qualities. The findings of the present work propose a promising avenue for gummy candy reformulation involving reduced sucrose content and the reintroduction of inulin, agave syrup, and the inherent natural antioxidants from strawberry and blackberry. This approach could be a feasible strategy to produce gummy confections with improved nutritional values and antioxidant properties.
Antimicrobial activities and mechanisms of truncated and amino-acid-substituted peptides derived from bacteriocin PZJ5

Published: December 2023

Truncation and amino acid residue substitution are common methods to optimise the design of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). In the present work, seven truncated and residue-substituted derivatives of Plantaricin ZJ5 (PZJ5) were designed and synthesised. PZJ5-5 was a truncation that simultaneously contained three substituted amino-acid residues, with enhanced antimicrobial activity and low haemolytic activity. The effects of PZJ5-5 on Escherichia coli microstructure were investigated using scanning and transmission electron microscopy, which indicated that its antibacterial mechanism was similar to PZJ5. C-terminal amidation of PZJ5-5 (PZJ5-7) was deleterious, and resulted in a dramatic reduction in potency against E. coli and Listeria monocytogenes, with no potency against the other three indicator bacteria. Truncation and residue substitution of bacteriocin PZJ5 changed its antimicrobial activities and specificities, which provided a rationale for bacteriocin design.

İnceleme sonucu efsanelerde yer alan kültlerin sadece anlatıma canlılık kazandırmadığı; dine, töreye ve geleneklere bağlanma, tabiata ve diğer yaşam alanlarına karşı uyum sağlatma hatta ekonomiye katkıda bulunma gibi işlevleri olduğu ve bu işlevleri sebebiyle kültlerin varlığını devam ettirdikleri görülmüştür.
Digital Twins. HBIM information repositories to centralize knowledge and interdisciplinary management of architectural heritage
Authors: Cortés Meseguer Luis , García Valldecabres Jorge
Published: December 2023

It is obvious that the primary document will always be the building itself, but within the field of conservation, restoration or maintenance it is necessary to have a large documentary archive where the interventions are recorded. The older the monument is, the greater the knowledge of the built element must be before any intervention and this requires a lot of time in prior research and which can develop prior studies, in addition to the economic cost that it entails. This is why with the advancement of technology and digital repositories, digital platforms can be created within Heritage Building Information Modeling (HBIM). This article reflects the experience of an eight-century-old monument, San Juan of Hospital of Valencia (Spain), in which a virtual twin has been made with software and specific web platforms in facility management such as Archibus©, EcoDomus©, Zutec© that allow the integration of information from BIM models and data acquired through sensors. With this work, although it is economically expensive and requires a lot of time for people specialized in the required programs, is improving the efficiency of facility management. and maintenance planning for large buildings and infrastructure.
Digital microclimate simulation models to support innovative management and preventive conservation processes in cultural sites
Authors: Pretelli Marco , Signorelli Leila , De Vivo Maria Antonietta
Published: December 2023

Among the least investigated aspects in historical architecture, one is the microclimatic behaviour linked to the preventive conservation of cultural heritage. This aspect should be studied intensively since it is closely related to any deterioration phenomenon of materials and can have a crucial role in updating management systems of cultural sites. Today the sensors that monitor environmental parameters can transfer data in real time into a continuous monitoring logic (cloud platforms) and this, in addition to the development of software capable of modelling the thermo-hygrometric behaviour of buildings, opens up new lines of research. The authors believe that it represents one of the most promising areas of investigation and capable of offering greater results in terms of preventive and planned measures. This contribution collects an experience recently conducted, financed by the Ministry of University and Research, in one of the most prestigious Italian museums, the National Archaeological Museum of Naples (MANN). The monitoring and modelling methodologies are illustrated, as well as the objectives of the intervention, with a view to a fruition that holds the psycho-physical well-being of staff and visitors and the conservation of heritage as close as possible. The results are closely linked to the pandemic experience, with the secondary objective of risk prevention for people and cultural heritage.

Gracias a la noción de paratraducción, quienes trabajan como profesionales de la traducción son hoy más conscientes que nunca de que la paratextualidad generada por la omnipresencia de lo visual en los procesos de traducción implica una cultura de las pantallas que sea capaz de ofrecer una mirada más atenta a los paratextos, una mirada nueva y diferente a la que, tradicionalmente, se les ha dado a los textos desde la cultura del libro. Enseñar a traducir en el siglo XXI implica ser mucho más consciente de que la (r)evolución digital ha transformado tanto el saber hacer como los procesos de aprendizaje de quienes en el futuro se dedicarán a leer e interpretar para traducir no sólo elementos verbales (textos), sino también, y, sobre todo, imágenes (paratextos icónicos). Esta publicación empieza por llamar la atención sobre el papel esencial que tiene la imagen en traducción desde la perspectiva teórica de la noción de paratraducción creada en 2005 en la Universidade de Vigo. Con vistas a mejorar el uso de la imagen como elemento esencial en los procesos de traducción para la comunicación internacional de la era digital, la publicación termina apuntando cómo, en realidad, la cultura del libro, por un lado, y la cultura de las pantallas, por otro, resultan ser dos culturas totalmente complementarias a la hora de formar profesionales tanto de la traducción del texto como de la paratraducción de la imagen.

Блок камер поля — один из основных научных приборов обсерватории «Спектр-УФ», который предназначен для по- лучения изображений астрономических объектов в нескольких спектральных диапазонах. В его конструкции преду- смотрено три канала: канал вакуумного ультрафиолета (115–176 нм) с высокими пространственным разрешением, оснащенный МКП-приемником с CsI фотокатодом; канал ближнего ультрафиолета (150–320 нм) с высокими про- странственным разрешением, оснащенный МКП-приемником с GaN фотокатодом; и канал ближнего ультрафиоле- тового и оптического диапазона (180–1000 нм) с полем зрения 4.5 ′ × 4.5 ′ и КМОП-приемником. МКП-приемники являются солнечно-слепыми (чувствительность в оптическом диапазоне на 3–8 порядков меньше, чем в ультрафио- летовом). Помимо режима получения изображений с использованием светофильтров, предусмотрен режим полевой спектроскопии низкого разрешения. В статье кратко изложены общие характеристики и возможные режимы работы блока камер поля, доработанного после 2022 г. группой сотрудников Института астрономии РАН.

Field Camera Unit (FCU) is one of the primary scientific instruments of the WSO-UV project. Its main purpose is taking images of astronomical objects in several spectral ranges using 3 channels: Far Ultraviolet channel (FUV, 115–176 nm) with high spatial resolution and MCP detector with CsI photocathode; Near Ultraviolet channel (NUV, 150–320 nm) with high spatial resolution and MCP detector with GaN photocathode; Ultraviolet and Optical channel (UVO, 180–1000 nm) with 4.5 ′ × 4.5 ′ field of view and CMOS detector. In addition to the imaging mode with filters, a low-resolution field spectroscopy mode is implemented. Field camera unit general parameters and modes of operation are described, taking into account the latest updates after 2022 made by the Institute of Astronomy of the Russian Academy of Sciences working group.

В АО «НПО им. Лавочкина» в соответствии с актуальной ФКП РФ проводятся работы по созданию космической аст- рофизической обсерватории ультрафиолетового диапазона «Спектр-УФ». Выведение будет осуществляться ракетой- носителем (РН) «Ангара-А5М» с разгонным блоком (РБ) ДМ с космодрома «Восточный». В качестве рабочей орбиты определена геосинхронная орбита с наклонением 35 градусов. Параметры орбиты (высоты перицентра и апоцен- тра, аргумент перицентра) выбирались, в том числе, исходя из необходимости уменьшения потенциально опасных сближений с космическими объектами (КО) на геостационарной орбите (ГСО) и в защищаемой области вокруг нее. В докладе приводится справочная баллистическая информация по выбранной рабочей орбите (интервалы тени, зоны радиовидимости), а также схема выведения, оценка максимальной массы космического аппарата (КА) и необходи- мый запас характеристической скорости для осуществления приведения орбиты выведения на заданную среднюю географическую долготу, выполнения коррекций поддержания и проведения заключительных операций с КА.

In accordance with the current Federal Space Program of the Russian Federation, a space astrophysical observatory of the ultraviolet range “Spektr-UV” is being developed by “NPO Lavochkin”. The orbit injection will be carried out by an “Angara-A5M” launch vehicle with a “Block DM” upper stage from the “Vostochny” cosmodrome. A geosynchronous orbit with an inclination of 35 degrees was selected as its operational orbit. The orbit parameters (heights of periapsis and apoapsis, argument of periapsis) were chosen, in particular, based on the need to reduce potentially dangerous proximity with space objects in geostationary orbit and its protected region. The article provides background information on the selected operational orbit (shadow intervals, radio visibility zones), as well as the injection scheme, the estimation of the maximum spacecraft mass and the delta-V reserve needed for the adjustment of the insertion orbit to the given average geographic longitude, conducting correction maneuvers to maintain the orbit and performing final operations with the spacecraft.

Modeling of the decay of binary trans-Neptunian objects belonging to the dynamically cold population of the classical Kuiper belt has been performed. We considered binary trans-Neptunian objects with masses 10 −10 , 10 −11 , 10 −12 , 10 −13 , 10 −14 of solar masses at component mass ratios of 1:1, 1:2, 1:10, 1:25 without taking into account tidal effects.

Published: December 2023

Исследована вероятностная эволюция пяти пар транснептуновых объектов на близких орбитах. Все пары относятся к холодному населению классического пояса Койпера. Для каждого транснептунового объекта генерировалось 1000 клонов в пределах ошибок определения элементов орбиты. Численное моделирование выполнялось с помощью про- граммы Orbit9, входящей в комплекс OrbFit. При моделировании на интервале времени 10 млн. лет в прошлое учи- тывались возмущения от восьми больших планет и карликовой планеты Плутон, на интервале 200 млн. лет в прошлое учитывались возмущения только от четырех планет-гигантов. Для оценки возраста пар использовались два метода. В первом методе выполнялся поиск моментов низкоскоростных сближений клонов, относящихся к разным объектам пары. Во втором методе анализировались моменты времени достижения минимального значения метрики Холшев- никова между клонами разных транснептуновых объектов. Низкоскоростные сближения для рассматриваемых пар не зафиксированы. На основе анализа моментов достижения минимальных значений метрики получены оценки воз- раста для всех пяти пар. Минимальный возраст 42 +147 −31 тыс. лет зафиксирован для пары 2013 SD101 — 2015 VY170. млн. лет получена для пары 2003 QL91 — 2015 VA173.

We investigated the probabilistic evolution of five pairs of trans-Neptunian objects in close orbits. All pairs belong to the cold population of the classical Kuiper belt. For each trans-Neptunian object, 1000 clones were generated within the limits of errors in determining the orbital elements. Numerical modelling was performed using the Orbit9 software included in the OrbFit. In the modelling, perturbations from eight major planets and the dwarf planet Pluto were taken into account at 10 Myr in the past, while perturbations from only four giant planets were taken into account at 200 Myr in the past. We used two methods to estimate the ages of pairs. The first method searched for moments of low relative-velocity close encounters of clones belonging to different objects in the pair. The second method analysed the moments of time when the minimum value of the Kholshevnikov metric was reached between clones of different trans-Neptunian objects. Low relative-velocity close encounters were not recorded for the pairs under consideration. On the basis of the analysis of the moments of reaching the minimum values of the metric, we obtained age estimates for all five pairs. The minimum age of +1.0 42 +147 −31 kyr was recorded for the pair 2013 SD101 — 2015 VY170. A maximum age estimate of 2.2 −0.7 Myr is obtained for the pair 2003 QL91 — 2015 VA173. All five pairs of trans-Neptunian objects considered can be classified as young. This paper is based on a talk presented at VIII Bredikhin conference.
