description: In this paper we present a new family of approximate Riemann solvers for the numerical approximation of solutions of hyperbolic conservation laws. They are approximate, also referred to as incomplete, in the sense that the solvers avoid computing the characteristic decomposition of the flux Jacobian. Instead, they require only an estimate of the globally fastest wave speeds in both directions. Thus, this family of solvers is particularly efficient for large systems of conservation laws, i.e. with many different propagation speeds, and when no explicit expression for the eigensystem is available. Even though only fastest wave speeds are needed as input values, the new family of Riemann solvers reproduces all waves with less dissipation than HLL, which has the same prerequisites, requiring only one additional flux evaluation.

description: На Русском Севере XVI–XVII вв. соль являлась важным ресурсом. Она использовалась для заготовления припасов и шла непосредственно в пищу. Материалы Кирилло-Новоезерского монастыря позволяют увидеть, как небольшой монастырь приобретал соль, причем от небольших покупок в соседнем Белоозере перешел к оптовым закупкам в Каргополе. Монастырская документация дает уникальную возможность увидеть, как соль распределялась внутри монастыря. Значительная часть приобретенной в Каргополе соли предназначалась для продажи, что позволяло получать небольшую, но существенную для монастырского хозяйства прибыль.

description: This paper proposes \textit{Contour Context}, a simple, effective, and efficient topological loop closure detection pipeline with accurate 3-DoF metric pose estimation, targeting the urban utonomous driving scenario. We interpret the Cartesian birds' eye view (BEV) image projected from 3D LiDAR points as layered distribution of structures. To recover elevation information from BEVs, we slice them at different heights, and connected pixels at each level will form contours. Each contour is parameterized by abstract information, e.g., pixel count, center position, covariance, and mean height. The similarity of two BEVs is calculated in sequential discrete and continuous steps. The first step considers the geometric consensus of graph-like constellations formed by contours in particular localities. The second step models the majority of contours as a 2.5D Gaussian mixture model, which is used to calculate correlation and optimize relative transform in continuous space. A retrieval key is designed to accelerate the search of a database indexed by layered KD-trees. We validate the efficacy of our method by comparing it with recent works on public datasets.

description: The complexity of large-scale distributed systems, particularly when deployed in physical space, calls for new mechanisms to address composability and reusability of collective adaptive behaviour. Computational fields have been proposed as an effective abstraction to fill the gap between the macro-level of such systems (specifying a system's collective behaviour) and the micro-level (individual devices' actions of computation and interaction to implement that collective specification), thereby providing a basis to better facilitate the engineering of collective APIs and complex systems at higher levels of abstraction. This paper proposes a full formal foundation for field computations, in terms of a core (higher-order) calculus of computational fields containing a few key syntactic constructs, and equipped with typing, denotational and operational semantics. Critically, this allows formal establishment of a link between the micro- and macro-levels of collective adaptive systems, by a result of full abstraction and adequacy for the (aggregate) denotational semantics with respect to the (per-device) operational semantics.

description: Fault detection and diagnosis is significant for reducing maintenance costs and improving health and safety in chemical processes. Convolution neural network (CNN) is a popular deep learning algorithm with many successful applications in chemical fault detection and diagnosis tasks. However, convolution layers in CNN are very sensitive to the order of features, which can lead to instability in the processing of tabular data. Optimal order of features result in better performance of CNN models but it is expensive to seek such optimal order. In addition, because of the encapsulation mechanism of feature extraction, most CNN models are opaque and have poor interpretability, thus failing to identify root-cause features without human supervision. These difficulties inevitably limit the performance and credibility of CNN methods. In this paper, we propose an order-invariant and interpretable hierarchical dilated convolution neural network (HDLCNN), which is composed by feature clustering, dilated convolution and the shapley additive explanations (SHAP) method. The novelty of HDLCNN lies in its capability of processing tabular data with features of arbitrary order without seeking the optimal order, due to the ability to agglomerate correlated features of feature clustering and the large receptive field of dilated convolution. Then, the proposed method provides interpretability by including the SHAP values to quantify feature contribution. Therefore, the root-cause features can be identified as the features with the highest contribution. Computational experiments are conducted on the Tennessee Eastman chemical process benchmark dataset. Compared with the other methods, the proposed HDLCNN-SHAP method achieves better performance on processing tabular data with features of arbitrary order, detecting faults, and identifying the root-cause features.

description: A respiratory pandemic known as coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) has created havoc since it emerged from Wuhan, China. COVID-19 is caused by a newly emerged SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV) with increased pathogenicity named severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). Due to the lack of understanding of the mechanism of pathogenesis, an effective therapeutic option is unavailable. Epidemics described in Unani ancient literature include nazla-e-wabai and humma-e-wabai, and most of the symptoms of COVID-19 resemble nazla-e-wabai. Hence, in light of Unani literature, the treatment of COVID-19 can be managed with the composites prescribed in Unani medicine for nazla-e-wabai. In this study, a structure-based drug design approach was carried out to check the effectiveness of the pharmacologically active constituents of the Unani composites prescribed to treat nazla-e-wabai against SARS-CoV-2. We performed molecular docking of the active constituents of these composites against the main protease (Mpro), a potential drug target in SARS-CoV-2. Using detailed molecular docking analysis, Habb-ul-aas and Tabasheer were identified as potential inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 Mpro. The active constituents of both these composites bind to the substrate-binding pocket of SARS-CoV-2 Mpro, forming interactions with key residues of the binding pocket. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation suggested the binding of active constituents of Habb-ul-aas with SARS-CoV-2 Mpro with a strong affinity as compared to the constituents of Tabasheer. Thus, this study sheds light on the use of these Unani composites in COVID-19 therapeutics. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma

description: CP violation plays a very important role in nature with implications both for Particle Physics and for Cosmology. Accounting for the observed matter anti-matter asymmetry of the Universe requires the existence of new sources of CP violation beyond the Standard Model. In models with an extended scalar sector CP violation can emerge either explicitly, i.e., at the Lagrangian level, or spontaneously. In the context of multi-Higgs extensions of the Standard Model imposing the existence of a scalar basis where all couplings are real is a sufficient condition for CP to be explicitly conserved. We discuss a three-Higgs-doublet model with an underlying $S_3$ symmetry, allowing in principle for complex couplings. In this framework it is possible to have either spontaneous or explicit CP violation in the scalar sector, depending on the regions of parameter space corresponding to the different possible vacua of the $S_3$ symmetric potential. We list all possible vacuum structures allowing for CP violation in the scalar sector specifying whether it can be explicit or spontaneous. It is by now established that CP is violated in the flavour sector and that the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix is complex. In order to understand what are the possible sources of CP violation in the Yukawa sector we analyse the implications of the different available choices of representations for the quarks under the $S_3$ group. This classification is based strictly on the exact $S_3$-symmetric scalar potential with no soft symmetry breaking terms. The scalar sector of one such model was explored numerically. After applying the theoretical and the most important experimental constraints the available parameter space is shown to be able to give rise to light neutral scalars at the $\mathcal{O}(\text{MeV})$ scale.

description: More than 3000 exoplanets have been detected so far, and more and more spectroscopic observations of exoplanets are performed. Future instruments are eagerly awaited as they will be able to provide spectroscopic data with a greater accuracy and sensitivity than what is currently available. An important aspect to consider is temporal stellar atmospheric disturbances that can influence the planetary composition, and hence spectra, and potentially can lead to incorrect assumptions about the steady-state atmospheric composition of the planet. We focus on perturbations that come from the host star in the form of flare events that significantly increase the photon flux impingement on the exoplanet atmosphere. In some cases, and particularly for M stars, this sudden increase may last for several hours. We aim at answering the question to what extent a stellar flare is able to modify the chemical composition of the planetary atmosphere and, therefore influence the resulting spectra. We use a 1D thermo-photochemical model to study the neutral atmospheric composition of two hypothetic planets located around the star AD Leo. This active star has already been observed during a flare. We use the spectroscopic data from this flare event to simulate the evolution of the chemical composition of the atmospheres of the two hypothetic planets. We compute synthetic spectra to evaluate the implications for observations. The increase of the incoming photon flux affects the chemical abundances of some important species down to altitudes associated with an atmospheric pressure of 1 bar, that can lead to variations in planetary spectra if performed during transit.

autonomy
Russian revolution of 1917

description: The idea of autonomy was in the air across the non-Russian territories of the empire and it presented itself as the logical goal to activists in Turkestan as well. A mere six weeks after the abdication of Nicholas II, a Congress of the Muslims of Turkestan convened in Tashkent and after a week of intense debate, it demanded Turkestan to be a territorially autonomous part of a future democratic, federal Russian republic. The quest for autonomy defined the parameters of Turkestani Muslim political action throughout the year 1917, even as the meaning of autonomy was contested and the conditions for its realization remained bleak. Coming only seven weeks after the collapse of the Autocracy, however, this was a remarkable feat of political mobilization and an achievement of a new political imagination. This article will explore where the idea of Turkestan’s autonomy came from, what it meant, and the challenges it faced.

description: While many Lyman-alpha Blobs (LABs) are found in and around several well-known protoclusters at high redshift, how they trace the underlying large-scale structure is still poorly understood. In this work, we utilize 5,352 Lyman-alpha emitters (LAEs) and 129 LABs at z=3.1 identified over a $\sim$ 9.5 sq. degree area in early data from the ongoing One-hundred-deg$^2$ DECam Imaging in Narrowbands (ODIN) survey to investigate this question. Using LAEs as tracers of the underlying matter distribution, we identify overdense structures as galaxy groups, protoclusters, and filaments of the cosmic web. We find that LABs preferentially reside in regions of higher-than-average density and are located in closer proximity to overdense structures, which represent the sites of protoclusters and their substructures. Moreover, protoclusters hosting one or more LABs tend to have a higher descendant mass than those which do not. Blobs are also strongly associated with filaments of the cosmic web, with $\sim$ 70% of the population being within a projected distance of 2.4 pMpc from a filament. We show that the proximity of LABs to protoclusters is naturally explained by their association with filaments as large cosmic structures are where many filaments converge. The contiguous wide-field coverage of the ODIN survey allows us for the first time to firmly establish a connection between LABs as a population and their environment.

description: We report the detection of near-IR H$_2$ emission from the low-ionization structures (knots) in two planetary nebulae. The deepest ever, high-angular resolution H$_2$ 1-0 S(1) at 2.122$μ$, H$_2$ 2-1 S(1) at 2.248$μ$ and Br$γ$ images of K 4-47 and NGC 7662, obtained using the Near InfraRed Imager and Spectrometer (NIRI) at Gemini-North, are analyzed here. K 4-47 reveals a remarkable highly collimated bipolar structure not only in the optical but also in the molecular hydrogen emission. The H$_2$ emission emanates from the walls of the bipolar outflows and also from the pair of knots at the tip of the outflows. The H$_2$ 1-0 S(1)/2-1 S(1) line ratio ranges from ~7 to ~10 suggesting the presence of shock interactions. Our findings can be explained by the interaction of a jet/bullet ejected from the central star with the surrounding asymptotic giant branch material. The strongest H$_2$ line, v=1-0 S(1) is also detected in several low-ionization knots located at the periphery of the elliptical planetary nebula NGC 7662, but only four of these knots are detected in the H$_2$ v=2-1 S(1) line. These four knots exhibit an H$_2$ line ratio between 2 and 3.5, which suggests that the emission is caused by the UV ionizing flux of the central star. Our data confirms the presence of H$_2$ gas in both fast- and slow-moving low-ionization knots, which has only been confirmed before in the nearby Helix nebula and Hu 1-2. Overall, the low-ionization structures of planetary nebulae are found to share similar traits to photodissociation regions.

Формулируется тезис о том, что партией осуществлялся особый контроль над органами суда посредством включения должностей судей в систему партийно-номенклатурного учета кадров. Делается предположение о том, что подобный негласный контроль позволил РКП(б)-ВКП(б) быстро сформировать советский судебный аппарат, а также проводить требуемую коммунистической партии классовую политику при отправлении правосудия.

description: Hypoxia inducible factor-1 is a heterodimeric transcription factor that regulates cellular responses to hypoxia and is involved in tumor progression and resistance to chemotherapy. Dimerization between HIF-1α and β subunits has been recognized crucial for DNA binding and transcriptional activity of HIF-1. Therefore, inhibitors of α and β dimerization subunits of HIF-1 may potentially evade HIF-1-mediated chemotherapy resistance. In the current study, ligand-based pharmacophore model was developed to determine 3 D binding features of HIF-1 inhibitors. The selected pharmacophore model comprises of one hydrogen bond donor, one hydrogen bond acceptor and one hydrophobic feature. The selected model was used for virtual screening of publically available data base by ChemBridge Corporation. Overall, six potential hits against HIF-1α and β dimerization have been identified. These include, Hit 1 (4-(4-chlorophenyl)-2,6-dimethyl-3,5-pyridinedicarboxylic acid), 3 (2-[2-(2-hydroxybenzoyl)carbonohydrazonoyl]benzoic acid) and 5 (3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2,4-quinolinedicarboxylic acid) nicotonic acid derivatives, Hit 2 (3-[(1-adamantylamino)sulfonyl]benzoic acid), 4 (5-{[(2-fluorophenyl)amino]sulfonyl}-2-methylbenzoic acid), and 6 (4-({[2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]sulfonyl}amino)benzoic acid) sulfonamide derivatives. Additionally, adamantyl moiety of compound 2 shows interactions with the experimentally known hydrophobic amino acid residues (V336, C334, E245) of HIF-1α and β dimerization site. The identified hits showed lower to higher µM biological activity (IC50) values and thus, after further structure optimization may serve as potential inhibitor of HIF-1 dimerization in cancer chemotherapy.

description: Solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) for the optical polarization functions is a first principles means to model optical properties of materials including excitonic effects. One almost ubiquitously used approximation neglects the frequency dependence of the screened electron-hole interaction. This is commonly justified by the large difference in magnitude of electronic plasma frequency and exciton binding energy. We incorporated dynamical effects into the screening of the electron-hole interaction in the BSE using two different approximations as well as exact diagonalization of the exciton Hamiltonian. We compare these approaches for a naphthalene organic crystal, for which the difference between exciton binding energy and plasma frequency is only about a factor of ten. Our results show that in this case, corrections due to dynamical screening are about 15\,\% of the exciton binding energy. We analyze the effect of screening dynamics on optical absorption across the visible spectral range and use our data to establish an \emph{effective} screening model as a computationally efficient approach to approximate dynamical effects in complex materials in the future.

description: The study of traversable wormholes is very hot topic for the past 30 years. One of the best possible way to make traversable wormhole is using the thin-shells to cut and paste two spacetime which has tunnel from one region of space-time to another, through which a traveler might freely pass in wormhole throat. These geometries need an exotic matter which involves a stress-energy tensor that violates the null energy condition. However, this method can be used to minimize the amount of the exotic matter. The goal of this thesis study is to study on thin-shell and thin-shell wormholes in general relativity in 2+1 and 3+1 dimensions. We also investigate the stability of such objects.

description: The applicability of nuclear {\it ab initio} calculations has rapidly extended over the past decades. However, starting research projects is still challenging due to the required numerical expertise in the generation of underlying nuclear interaction matrix elements and many-body calculations. To ease the first issue, in this paper we introduce the numerical code \texttt{NuHamil} to generate the nucleon-nucleon (NN) and three-nucleon (3N) matrix elements expressed in a spherical harmonic-oscillator basis, inputs of many-body calculations. The ground-state energies for the selected doubly closed shell nuclei are calculated with the no-core shell-model (NCSM) and in-medium similarity renormalization group (IMSRG). The code is written in modern Fortran, and OpenMP+MPI hybrid parallelization is available for the 3N matrix-element calculations.

description: The CoRoT satellite supplied the scientific community with a huge data base of variable stars. Among them the RR Lyrae stars have intensively been discussed in numerous papers in the last few years, but the latest runs have not been checked to find RR Lyrae stars up to now. Our main goal was to fill this gap and complete the CoRoT RR Lyrae sample. We found nine unstudied RR Lyrae stars. Seven of them are new discoveries. We identified three new Blazhko stars. The Blazhko effect shows non-strictly repetitive nature for all stars. The frequency spectrum of the Blazhko star CoRoT 104948132 contains second overtone frequency with the highest known period ratio. The harmonic amplitude and phase declines with the harmonic order were studied for non-Blazhko stars. We found a period dependent but similar shape amplitude decline for all stars. We discovered significant random period fluctuation for one of the two oversampled target, CM Ori. After a successful transformation of the CoRoT band parameters to the Johnson V values we estimated the basic physical properties such as mass, luminosity, metallicity. The sample can be divided into two subgroups with respect to the metallicity but otherwise the physical parameters are in the canonical range of RR Lyrae stars.

description: The modeling of multi-scale and multi-physics complex systems typically involves the use of scientific software that can optimally leverage extreme scale computing. Despite major developments in recent years, these simulations continue to be computationally intensive and time consuming. Here we explore the use of AI to accelerate the modeling of complex systems at a fraction of the computational cost of classical methods, and present the first application of physics informed neural operators to model 2D incompressible magnetohydrodynamics simulations. Our AI models incorporate tensor Fourier neural operators as their backbone, which we implemented with the TensorLY package. Our results indicate that physics informed neural operators can accurately capture the physics of magnetohydrodynamics simulations that describe laminar flows with Reynolds numbers $Re\leq250$. We also explore the applicability of our AI surrogates for turbulent flows, and discuss a variety of methodologies that may be incorporated in future work to create AI models that provide a computationally efficient and high fidelity description of magnetohydrodynamics simulations for a broad range of Reynolds numbers. The scientific software developed in this project is released with this manuscript.

description: В статье на основе неопубликованных документов анализируются итоги выборов на XVII, Первую промышленную и XVIII Ленинградские областные партийные конференции 1961, 1963 и 1964 гг., подготовка и итоги формирования обкома партии в эти годы. Автор приходит к выводу о том, что на эти процессы значительное влияние оказывали формальные критерии и механизмы, предложенные ЦК ВКП(б) еще в послевоенные годы. После 1961 г. свободное волеизъявление в форме тайного голосования (а также «голосование ногами») только гипотетически могли привести к неожиданным для партийного руководства результатам.

description: Hypoxia inducible factor-1 is a heterodimeric transcription factor that regulates cellular responses to hypoxia and is involved in tumor progression and resistance to chemotherapy. Dimerization between HIF-1α and β subunits has been recognized crucial for DNA binding and transcriptional activity of HIF-1. Therefore, inhibitors of α and β dimerization subunits of HIF-1 may potentially evade HIF-1-mediated chemotherapy resistance. In the current study, ligand-based pharmacophore model was developed to determine 3 D binding features of HIF-1 inhibitors. The selected pharmacophore model comprises of one hydrogen bond donor, one hydrogen bond acceptor and one hydrophobic feature. The selected model was used for virtual screening of publically available data base by ChemBridge Corporation. Overall, six potential hits against HIF-1α and β dimerization have been identified. These include, Hit 1 (4-(4-chlorophenyl)-2,6-dimethyl-3,5-pyridinedicarboxylic acid), 3 (2-[2-(2-hydroxybenzoyl)carbonohydrazonoyl]benzoic acid) and 5 (3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2,4-quinolinedicarboxylic acid) nicotonic acid derivatives, Hit 2 (3-[(1-adamantylamino)sulfonyl]benzoic acid), 4 (5-{[(2-fluorophenyl)amino]sulfonyl}-2-methylbenzoic acid), and 6 (4-({[2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]sulfonyl}amino)benzoic acid) sulfonamide derivatives. Additionally, adamantyl moiety of compound 2 shows interactions with the experimentally known hydrophobic amino acid residues (V336, C334, E245) of HIF-1α and β dimerization site. The identified hits showed lower to higher µM biological activity (IC50) values and thus, after further structure optimization may serve as potential inhibitor of HIF-1 dimerization in cancer chemotherapy.

description: We study light-activated quasi-2d gels made of a colloidal network doped with Janus particles. Following the gel formation, the internal dynamics of the gel are monitored before, during, and after the light activation. We monitor both the structure and dynamics, before, during and after the illumination period. The mobility of the passive particles exhibits a characteristic scale-dependent response. Immediately following light activation, the gel displays large-scale reorganization, followed by progressive, short-scale displacements throughout the activation period. Albeit subtle structural changes (including pore opening and widening and shortening of strands) the colloidal network remains connected, and the gel maintains its structural integrity. Once activity is switched off, the gel keeps the memory of the structure inherited from the active phase. Remarkably, the motility remains larger than that of the gel, before the active period. The system has turned into a genuinely different gel, with frozen dynamics, but with more space for thermal fluctuations. The above conclusions remain valid long after the activity period.

description: Malware detection is a growing problem particularly on the Android mobile platform due to its increasing popularity and accessibility to numerous third party app markets. This has also been made worse by the increasingly sophisticated detection avoidance techniques employed by emerging malware families. This calls for more effective techniques for detection and classification of Android malware. Hence, in this paper we present an n-opcode analysis based approach that utilizes machine learning to classify and categorize Android malware. This approach enables automated feature discovery that eliminates the need for applying expert or domain knowledge to define the needed features. Our experiments on 2520 samples that were performed using up to 10-gram opcode features showed that an f-measure of 98% is achievable using this approach.

subject: Primary 35R30, secondary 26A33, 42B37

description: In this article a nonlocal analogue of an inverse problem in diffuse optical tomography is considered. We show that whenever one has given two pairs of diffusion and absorption coefficients $(γ_j,q_j)$, $j=1,2$, such that there holds $q_1=q_2$ in the measurement set $W$ and they generate the same DN data, then they are necessarily equal in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $Ω$, respectively. Additionally, we show that the condition $q_1|_W=q_2|_W$ is optimal in the sense that without this restriction one can construct two distinct pairs $(γ_j,q_j)$, $j=1,2$ generating the same DN data.

Основание Пор-Руайяля: французы в Атлантическом регионе Канады в 1605–1607 гг.

description: В статье рассматривается начальная страница французской колонизации Акадии — территории Атлантического региона Канады, где в 1605 г. ими был основан Пор-Руайяль — первое постоянное европейское поселение на Североамериканском континенте к северу от испанских владений. Отмечается, что при выборе этого места создатели колонии — выдающийся путешественник и географ Самюэль де Шамплен и первый наместник и вице-король Акадии де Мон — руководствовались, во‑первых, соображениями безопасности, стремясь избежать соседства со слишком многочисленными и воинственными индейскими племенами, а во‑вторых, искали место, подходящее для создания мехоторговой фактории, поскольку главной целью их предприятия была добыча пушнины. Показаны трудности, прежде всего связанные с непривычно холодным климатом, с которыми пришлось столкнуться французам в ходе зимовок 1605–1606 и 1606–1607 гг., и то, каким образом они пытались их преодолевать. Отмечается деятельность Марка Лекарбо (участника второй зимовки) ставшего первым историком-хронистом Акадии, ее первым поэтом и драматургом, а также теоретиком французского колониализма. Показано, что в 1607 г. де Мону пришлось эвакуировать колонию из-за того, что его монополия на торговлю пушниной была ликвидирована, а без нее содержать поселение в Пор-Руайяле он не мог. В заключение отмечаются особенности социально-экономического развития Франции начала XVII в. — прежде всего, отсутствие свободного мобильного населения, заинтересованного в эмиграции, и относительная слабость буржуазии и ее зависимость от государства — оказавшие влияние на характер ее колониальной политики в целом и в частности на колонизацию Атлантического региона, предопределившие ее маргинальный характер.

description: В статье предпринят анализ нового подхода к исторической проблематике Наполеоновских и Освободительных войн, изложенного в трудах немецкого историка Уте Планерт. Отмечается характерный для современной немецкой историографии отход от модернистских позиций относительно немецкой и европейской истории XVIII — начала XIX в. и обращение к теории «седлового времени», предложенной в 1970-е гг. немецким ученым Райнхартом Козеллеком. Применяя понятие «седловое время» к истории немецкой национальной идеи в Новое время, Уте Планерт опровергает устоявшееся представление об эпохе Освободительных войн как о времени зарождения современного немецкого национализма, равно как и массового организованного национального движения в Германии. Планерт утверждает, что в наполеоновскую эпоху носителем немецкого национализма продолжал оставаться узкий слой образованного бюргерства, в то время как для большинства населения такие факторы, как экономическое положение, жестокость и насилие со стороны врага, религиозные образы и символы, локальный патриотизм и династическая лояльность имели гораздо большее значение, чем абстрактная идея немецкой нации. Отрицая наличие существенного влияния наполеоновской Франции на национальные, политические и социальные процессы в Германии, Уте Планерт выступает за то, чтобы рассматривать эпоху Освободительных войн как часть длительного эволюционного процесса, а не как период резкой ломки устоявшихся отношений. Также исследовательница призывает учитывать региональную специфику, которая, по ее мнению, не позволяет интерпретировать 1806–1815 гг. как единый и цельный период немецкой истории.
High Energy Polarimetry of Prompt GRB Emission

description: Evidence of polarized $γ$-ray emission ($>$ 50 keV) from Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) has been accumulated in recent years. Measurements have been reported with levels in the range of 30-80\%, typically with limited statistical significance. No clear picture has yet emerged with regards to the polarization properties of GRBs. Taken at face value, the data suggest that most GRBs have a relatively large level of polarization (typically, $> 50\%$), which may suggest synchrotron emission associated with an ordered magnetic field structure within the GRB jet. But these results are far from conclusive. Here, we review the observations that have been made, concentrating especially on the instrumental issues and the lessons that might be learned from these data.

description: В настоящее время, несмотря на постепенный переход новой коронавирусной инфекции в состояние сезонных обострений, осложнения от COVID-19 все же остаются актуальной проблемой, особенно те, что затрагивают центральную нервную систему. В связи с этим все большую актуальность приобретают исследования, направленные на разграничение общих для группы острых респираторных вирусных инфекций и специфических характеристик COVID-19, в том числе развитие постковидных осложнений, включающих в себя психические и неврологические нарушения. Настоящее исследование имело своей целью определение роли вирусов (на примере герпесвирусов и вируса COVID-19) как этиологического и патогенетического фактора развития психических и неврологических расстройств в различные периоды заболевания.
