Local Charge Excesses in Metallic Alloys: a Local Field Coherent Potential Approximation Theory

description: Electronic structure calculations performed on very large supercells have shown that the local charge excesses in metallic alloys are related through simple linear relations to the local electrostatic field resulting from distribution of charges in the whole crystal. By including local external fields in the single site Coherent Potential Approximation theory, we develop a novel theoretical scheme in which the local charge excesses for random alloys can be obtained as the responses to local external fields. Our model maintains all the computational advantages of a single site theory but allows for full charge relaxation at the impurity sites. Through applications to CuPd and CuZn alloys, we find that, as a general rule, non linear charge rearrangements occur at the impurity site as a consequence of the complex phenomena related with the electronic screening of the external potential. This nothwithstanding, we observe that linear relations hold between charge excesses and external potentials, in quantitative agreement with the mentioned supercell calculations, and well beyond the limits of linearity for any other site property.

description: We perform absolute timing of PSR B1821-24 in M28, using a 50 ksec observation with Chandra/HRC-S. We have obtained the highest signal-to-noise X-ray pulsed lightcurve of this source to date, detecting two X-ray pulses, as well as significant non-pulsed emission -- a persistent X-ray flux which comprises 15+/-3% of the total X-ray flux of the pulsar. The Gaussian width of the sharp X-ray peak is 34+/-3 micro-sec in time, implying a size of the X-ray beam as it crosses the line of sight of 4.0+/-0.4 deg. We find evidence for a significant trailing component in both X-ray peaks of the pulse profile. Including three RXTE/PCA observations in our analysis, and tying the phases together using a radio ephemeris obtained at Nancay, we find the absolute phases in the X-ray wander with respect to this radio ephemeris by up to 60 micro-sec, likely due to the variable dispersion measure, which changes the pulse arrival time in the radio band but not the X-ray band. The present analysis makes clear that study of pulsar timing noise properties in millisecond pulsars such as PSR B1821-24 -- hitherto only studied at radio wavelengths, where variable dispersion measure requires a significant correction -- can be studied at X-ray wavelengths, where the effect of variable dispersion measure is negligible. We also examine the known uncertainties in the absolute Chandra/HRC-S timing accuracy, which amount to +/-12 microsec. We limit the amount of linear drift in the relative timing accuracy of HRC-S to <3e-10 s s-1.

description: Ferro-quadrupole (FQ) order in the non-Kramers $Γ_3$ doublet system PrTi$_2$Al$_{20}$ has been investigated via angle-resolved measurements of the specific heat, rotational magnetocaloric effect, and entropy, under a rotating magnetic field within the $(1\bar{1}0)$ plane. The FQ transition occurring at 2 K is robust when the magnetic field $B$ is applied precisely along the $[111]$ direction. By contrast, the magnetic field of larger than 1 T tilted away from the $[111]$ direction sensitively changes the FQ transition to a crossover. The energy gap between the ground and first-excited states in the FQ order increases remarkably with the magnetic field in $B \parallel [001]$, but hardly depends on the magnetic-field strength, at least up to 5 T, in the field orientation between the $[111]$ and $[110]$ axes. These features can be reproduced by using a phenomenological model for FQ order assuming an anisotropic field-dependent interaction between quadrupoles, which has been recently proposed to explain the field-induced first-order phase transition in PrTi$_2$Al$_{20}$. The present study demonstrates the great potential of the field-angle-resolved measurements for evaluating possible scenarios for multipole orders.

description: В настоящий период времени в России и практически во всем мире быстрыми темпами ведется строительство тоннельных сооружений. Параметры, которые считаются основными при строительстве тоннелейэто их эксплуатационная надежность, которая заключается в сохранении эксплуатационных характеристик при их непосредственном использовании. По результатам статистики количество аварий в тоннелях показывает, что основной причиной считаются пожары, которые составляют 59% от всего количества аварий. Пожары провоцируют обрушение тоннелей, которые в свою очередь приводят к гибели людей и материальному ущербу. В статье представлены результаты исследований прочности железобетонных конструкций и их огнестойкости. Исследование было проведено при добавлении в бетонный смеси фибры различных сортов и различного количества. Результаты испытаний представлены в таблицах и на графиках, которые показывают улучшение показателей.
title: Nordic transnational feminist activism: the new women’s movements in Finland, Sweden and Denmark, 1960s-1990s

description: The Nordic countries have been globally portrayed and perceived as exemplar nations in terms of gender equality, particularly in respect of women’s political participation and representation. Yet, the history of women’s socio-political contributions in the Nordic countries also involves a rich past entwined in grassroots feminist organising. From the late 1960s into the early 1990s, women across the Nordic region organised into what is known as the new women’s movement – or rather the new women’s movements, in the plural. This thesis applies a transnational approach to the study of feminist activism and its history, examining how border-crossing circulations shaped both ideas and practices in three Nordic countries – Finland, Sweden and Denmark. It explores the different shapes transnational Nordic feminist activism embodied by providing a rhizomatic reading of the ways in which transnational influences circulated into, within and out of the Nordic region. I posit that by focusing on three categories of thematic enquiry – people, texts, and places and spaces – a rich and largely unwritten history emerges, which both moves beyond yet deeply relies on its actors’ local and national situatedness. In this thesis I engage with a myriad of analytical questions central to the study of the Nordic new women’s movements, from how feminist activists in Finland, Sweden and Denmark approached notions surrounding ‘a global sisterhood’ to the ways in which transnational encounters shaped activists’ subjective self-image. My research is based on extensive archival and oral history research across three countries and four languages (English, Finnish, Swedish and Danish). The thesis also includes an in-depth methodological discussion, which reflects on the challenges and possibilities that the transnational study of late modern gender history has to offer.

description: With the worldwide growing burden of respiratory tract infections (RTIs), innovative therapeutic approaches are in high demand. Inhaled antibodies (Abs) represent a promising avenue, offering targeted treatment options with potentially better therapeutic index compared to traditional delivery methods. This comprehensive review summarizes the challenges faced in delivering Abs by (intranasal and pulmonary) inhalation. It outlines the physiological and biological barriers encountered by inhaled drugs, as well as the influence of delivery devices and formulation on the deposition and efficacy of inhaled molecules. Moreover, it provides a detailed overview of the current clinical trial landscape of inhaled anti-RTI Abs, highlighting the progress in the development of inhaled Abs targeting a range of pathogens, such as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 and respiratory syncytial virus. The mechanism of action, therapeutic targets, and clinical outcomes of these novel therapies are detailed. Delivery of Abs by inhalation faces several challenges. Addressing these challenges and developing specific approaches to deliver inhaled Abs represent a promising avenue for the development of the next generation of inhaled Abs. By offering targeted, localized therapy with the potential for a better therapeutic index, inhaled Abs could significantly improve outcomes for patients with RTIs.
Quantum Interference Effects in Electronic Transport through Nanotube Contacts

description: Quantum interference has dramatic effects on electronic transport through nanotube contacts. In optimal configuration the intertube conductance can approach that of a perfect nanotube ($4e^2/h$). The maximum conductance increases rapidly with the contact length up to 10 nm, beyond which it exhibits long wavelength oscillations. This is attributed to the resonant cavity-like interference phenomena in the contact region. For two concentric nanotubes symmetry breaking reduces the maximum intertube conductance from $4e^2/h$ to $2e^2/h$. The phenomena discussed here can serve as a foundation for building nanotube electronic circuits and high speed nanoscale electromechanical devices.

description: An important quantity in electronic systems is the quasiparticle scattering rate (QPSR). A related optical scattering rate (OSR) is routinely extracted from optical data, and, while it is not the same as the QPSR, it nevertheless displays many of the same features. We consider a sum rule which applies to the area under a closely related quantity, almost equal to the OSR in the low energy region. We focus on the readjustment caused by, for example, a quasiparticle density of states change due to the superconducting transition. Unfortunately, no general statement about mechanism can be made solely on the energy scale in which the spectral weight readjustment on the OSR occurs.

description: We describe the singularities in the averaged density of states and the corresponding statistics of the energy levels in two- (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) chiral symmetric and time-reversal invariant disordered systems, realized in bipartite lattices with real off-diagonal disorder. For off-diagonal disorder of zero mean we obtain a singular density of states in 2D which becomes much less pronounced in 3D, while the level-statistics can be described by semi-Poisson distribution with mostly critical fractal states in 2D and Wigner surmise with mostly delocalized states in 3D. For logarithmic off-diagonal disorder of large strength we find indistinguishable behavior from ordinary disorder with strong localization in any dimension but in addition one-dimensional $1/|E|$ Dyson-like asymptotic spectral singularities. The off-diagonal disorder is also shown to enhance the propagation of two interacting particles similarly to systems with diagonal disorder. Although disordered models with chiral symmetry differ from non-chiral ones due to the presence of spectral singularities, both share the same qualitative localization properties except at the chiral symmetry point E=0 which is critical.

Авторами рассматриваются вопросы адаптивного управления сектором государственных и муниципальных услуг с учетом принципа его сбалансированного развития на базе многофункциональных центров. Авторами подчеркивается важность создания единой модели формирования «идеального» многофункционального центра как основного элемента сравнения качественного исполнения функций органов государственной и муниципальной власти в разрезе предоставляемых ими услуг. Авторы приходят к выводу, что механизм управления идеальной моделью должен базироваться в первую очередь на принципе соблюдения «баланса интересов» и предоставления равного доступа к предоставляемым услугам с учетом требований научной валидности принятия управленческих решений.

description: In this paper, we derive a generalization of the Speedy Q-learning (SQL) algorithm that was proposed in the Reinforcement Learning (RL) literature to handle slow convergence of Watkins' Q-learning. In most RL algorithms such as Q-learning, the Bellman equation and the Bellman operator play an important role. It is possible to generalize the Bellman operator using the technique of successive relaxation. We use the generalized Bellman operator to derive a simple and efficient family of algorithms called Generalized Speedy Q-learning (GSQL-w) and analyze its finite time performance. We show that GSQL-w has an improved finite time performance bound compared to SQL for the case when the relaxation parameter w is greater than 1. This improvement is a consequence of the contraction factor of the generalized Bellman operator being less than that of the standard Bellman operator. Numerical experiments are provided to demonstrate the empirical performance of the GSQL-w algorithm.

description: We present the results of a detailed UV and optical spectral analysis of the properties of 6 dwarf O-type stars in the SMC H II region NGC 346. Stellar parameters, chemical abundances, and wind parameters have been determined using NLTE line blanketed models calculated with the photospheric code, Tlusty, and with the wind code, CMFGEN. The results, in particular iron abundances, obtained with the two NLTE codes compare very favorably, demonstrating that basic photospheric parameters of O dwarfs can be reliably determined using NLTE static model atmospheres. The two NLTE codes require a microturbulent velocity to match the observed spectra. Our results hint at a decrease of the microturbulent velocity from early O stars to late O stars. Similarly to several recent studies of galactic, LMC and SMC stars, we derive effective temperatures lower than predicted from the widely-used relation between spectral type and Teff, resulting in lower stellar luminosities and lower ionizing fluxes. From evolutionary tracks in the HR diagram, we find an age of 3 10^6 years for NGC 346. A majority of the stars in our sample reveal CNO-cycle processed material at their surface during the MS stage, indicating thus fast stellar rotation and/or very efficient mixing processes. We obtain an overall metallicity, Z = 0.2 Zsun, in good agreement with other recent analyses of SMC stars. The derived mass loss rate of the three most luminous stars agrees with recent theoretical predictions. However, the three other stars of our sample reveal very weak wind signatures. We obtain mass loss rates that are significantly lower than 10^{-8} Msun/yr, which is below the predictions of radiative line-driven wind theory by an order of magnitude or more. (abridged version)

description: Статья посвящена анализу и описанию развивающегося международного коридора «Север-Юг». Проведена оценка грузооборота в разрезе 15 лет, построена линия тренда и посчитаны прогнозные значения грузооборота на следующие периоды. Авторы статьи выделяют следующие проблемы, в-первую очередь, это недостаточная информированность грузоотправителей о возможностях коридора и наличие «узких» мест. Для решения этих проблем авторы статьи предлагают создание единого надежного транспортного оператора, который повысит лояльность отправителей, а также формирование режима торговых льгот, который привлечет клиентов своими экономичными условиями транспортировки.

description: A basic feature of liquid drops is that they can merge upon contact to form a larger drop. In spite of its importance to various applications, drop coalescence on pre-wetted substrates has received little attention. Here, we experimentally and theoretically reveal the dynamics of drop coalescence on a thick layer of a low-viscosity liquid. It is shown that these so-called "liquid lenses" merge by the self-similar vertical growth of a bridge connecting the two lenses. Using a slender analysis, we derive similarity solutions corresponding to the viscous and inertial limits. Excellent agreement is found with the experiments without any adjustable parameters, capturing both the spatial and temporal structure of the flow during coalescence. Finally, we consider the crossover between the two regimes and show that all data of different lens viscosities collapse on a single curve capturing the full range of the coalescence dynamics.

description: Dose administration aids (DAA) are widely used to improve adherence. In New Zealand (NZ) more pharmacies are utilizing automated filling robots to meet DAA demand. Pradaxa™ capsules containing dabigatran etexilate (DE) is problematic. It is moisture-sensitive, and Medsafe (NZ regulator), recommends keeping the capsule in its original packaging until administration. This prevents DE from repacking into DAA, reducing the effectiveness of the DAA. Overseas studies demonstrated stability of DE in DAA. However, the findings cannot be extrapolated to NZ environments. Pradaxa™ 110 mg capsules repackaged in DAA were stored in conditions mimicking real-life settings (room temperature, bedroom and fridge) for 16 weeks. At predetermined timepoints, the capsules were evaluated for drug content and dissolution profile. DE samples stored in NZ conditions for 16 weeks met the drug content requirement of 85 - 115% except for unit-dose sachet samples stored in fridge condition (79.7% ± 6.82). Samples demonstrated similarity in dissolution profile until 8 weeks with release rate decreased at 16 weeks under all storage conditions. DE capsules repackaged in DAA demonstrated stability for up to 8 weeks in all NZ storage conditions, confirming the safety of repackaging DE into a DAA.

description: We have started from the analysis of existing human resources in the paper, from the point of view of regional, qualification and age structure of the active labour force. Basic research method is deduction method, because we start from the general towards special and individual, with the aim to bring human factor and development of agriculture in Montenegro into connection. With regards to the key role of the human factor in the development of agriculture, a question emerges: is this factor in Montenegro a real opportunity or a constraint? Upon having insight into the existing situation of the human factor, we can conclude that there is an obvious discrepancy between demographic and economic centres. Expressed migration of the population from the north towards the south and from villages to cities brought the development of agricultural production into question. When the human factor engaged in agriculture is concerned, old population and elderly households prevail, which is a serious threat to the development, because depopulation and “senilization” caused abandoning villages, deagrarization and space devastation.

description: В статье рассматриваются проблемы управления безопасностью медицинской деятельности в многопрофильном стационаре в условиях пандемии COVID – 19 на примере Республики Бурятия. Рассмотрены определения понятия «безопасность медицинской деятельности». Эмпирической базой исследования стали материалы экспертных интервью и фокус-групповой дискуссии с руководством ГАУЗ «Республиканская клиническая больница им. Н.А. Семашко». Выявлены ключевые недостатки управления эпидемиологической безопасностью, предложены направления совершенствования работы многопрофильного стационара в целях повышения безопасности медицинской деятельности. Экономический анализ финансирования затрат на усиление эпидемиологической безопасности показал, что несмотря на большой объем выделенных средств из федерального центра, больница имеет высокие показатели кредиторской задолженности в связи с пандемией. Полностью сорван план по выполнению платных услуг. По мнению экспертов, финансовая нестабильность, обусловленная пандемией, будет иметь долгосрочный мультипликативный негативный эффект для больницы в будущем.

description: In this paper the differences were examined between clones of Cabernet sauvignon (clones ISV-F-V5, ISV-F-V6 and R5), i.e. the difference between uvological properties of grape clusters and grape berries, based on the different positions on the bearing shoot. Tests were conducted at the experimental field of the Faculty of Agriculture “Radmilovac.” Standard ampelographic methods were used in numerous analyses of grape yield, as well as uvological properties of clones. All data were statistically analyzed and processed by the method of two-factor analysis of variance with repeated measuring of one factor (height) and Tukey HSD test. Analysis of variance showed no significant differences between clones. The best results were achieved with grape clusters positioned in the base of bearing shoot. The first positioned grape clusters on the bearing shoot had the highest share in the total grape yield, the highest amount of sugar, and the highest positioned grape clusters had higher content of total acids. The differences determined between examined clones were in regard to productivity and quality of grapes which reflected also on production value.
