Time-dependent shear flow of artificial slurries
Creators: name: Horie, Michihiko
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: An experimental method was developed for characterizing time-dependent slurries of elongated particles in a coaxial cylinder viscometer which has a wide gap between the inner rotating cylinder and the stationary cup. A model slurry system was studied; it consisted of a dispersed phase of regularly sized nylon fibers and a dispersing medium of an aqueous solution of polyethylene glycol with dextrose and sodium chloride, each of whose effects on the time-dependent nature of the slurry could be examined separately. The slurry gelled in the viscometer on standing. The time-variation of shear stress exerted on the wall of the inner cylinder rotating at a constant angular velocity was recorded as a stress decay curve. It was found that only a part of the gap between the cylinders of the viscometer flows under shear, and that the thickness of the flowing layer increases with time and approaches an equilibrium value. The time-variation of the thickness of the flowing layer Rx(t) as well as the shear stress decay was measured for fifteen slurries. An empirical reaction-rate type model was constructed for the time-variation of the thickness of the flowing layer Rx(t). A second order-zero order reversible reaction model fitted the experimental data well. The three fitting factors of the model were the equilibrium value of the thickness of the flowing layer Rx∞, and the two rate parameters kf/B and B/A. These factors (Rx, Kf/B, and B/A) were correlated with particle length-to-diameter ratio, volume fraction of particles in the slurry, and angular velocity of the rotating cylinder.

description: Additional file 2: Figure S1. An example of a patient with multiple cardiovascular risk factors including type 2 diabetes who underwent coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) due to exercise-related chest discomfort. There were atherosclerotic plaques with suspected obstructive stenoses (arrows) in left anterior descending (LAD; panel A) and left obtuse marginal (LOM; panel B) branches. Atherosclerotic plaques in the right coronary artery (RCA; panel C) were deemed as non-obstructive based on CTA. Due to the findings of LAD and LOM, downstream positron emission tomography (PET) myocardial perfusion imaging was performed. A polar map demonstrates moderately reduced stress myocardial blood flow in the lateral wall of the left ventricular myocardium whereas other myocardial areas are normally perfused based on PET (panel D). A fusion image of CTA and PET colocalizes the perfusion defect with LOM branch (panel E).

description: Amorphous solids that underwent a strain in one direction such that they responded in a plastic manner `remember' that direction also when relaxed back to a state with zero mean stress. We address the question `what is the order parameter that is responsible for this memory?' and is therefore the reason for the different subsequent responses of the material to strains in different directions. We identify such an order parameter which is readily measurable, we discuss its trajectory along the stress-strain curve, and propose that it and its probability distribution function must form a necessary component of a theory of elasto-plasticity.

description: RESUMO

A depressão é um distúrbio que prejudica a vida diária o que se intensifica na população idosa, devido a pandemia da Covid-19 observou-se um aumento significativo de depressão nessa população. Assim o presente trabalho tem o objetivo de descrever os índices de depressão na população idosa abordando meios de diagnóstico e o papel da enfermagem. Trata-se em uma pesquisa de revisão bibliográfica narrativa e descritiva, com abordagem qualiquantitativa. Durante a pandemia os fatores de risco associados ao desenvolvimento de doenças mentais incluem a vulnerabilidade social e a exposição a pessoas infectadas ou à própria doença. Além disso, a faixa etária mais avançada se revela uma condição agravante, pois pode predispor o desenvolvimento de doenças crônicas ou degenerativas. A depressão em idosos é uma condição complexa que afeta de maneira significativa a qualidade de vida dessa população, o diagnóstico também possui inúmeros desafios em função da complexidade clínica e à presença de comorbidades que podem

 

mascarar ou exacerbar os sintomas depressivos. Nesse contexto o papel do enfermeiro na assistência prestado ao idoso depressivo, não é somente esclarecer as incertezas quanto ao tratamento medicamentoso, porém é o ato de ouvi-lo, compreendê-lo, realizar orientações de forma clara e sucinta afim de facilitar o seu entendimento. Com isso sugere-se a necessidade de manter a continuidade de pesquisas nesta área, uma vez que tais dados são essenciais para aprimorar as estratégias de atenção à saúde da população idosa.

description: In the preceding papers the present author gave another proof of the existence and uniqueness of the solution to the BCS-Bogoliubov gap equation for superconductivity from the viewpoint of operator theory, and showed that the solution is partially differentiable with respect to the temperature twice. Thanks to these results, we can indeed partially differentiate the solution and the thermodynamic potential with respect to the temperature twice so as to obtain the entropy and the specific heat at constant volume of a superconductor. In this paper we show the behavior near absolute zero temperature of the thus-obtained entropy, the specific heat, the solution and the critical magnetic field from the viewpoint of operator theory since we did not study it in the preceding papers. Here, the potential in the BCS-Bogoliubov gap equation is an arbitrary, positive continuous function and need not be a constant.

description: In previous joint work with Eli Aljadeff we attached a generic Hopf Galois extension A(H,c) to each twisted algebra H(c) obtained from a Hopf algebra H by twisting its product with the help of a cocycle c. The algebra A(H,c) is a flat deformation of H(c) over a "big" central subalgebra B(H,c) and can be viewed as the noncommutative analogue of a versal torsor in the sense of Serre. After surveying the results on A(H,c) obtained with Aljadeff, we establish three new results: we present a systematic method to construct elements of the commutative algebra B(H,c), we show that a certain important integrality condition is satisfied by all finite-dimensional Hopf algebras generated by grouplike and skew-primitive elements, and we compute B(H,c) in the case where H is the Hopf algebra of a cyclic group.

description: Symbiotic X-ray Binaries (SyXBs) are a recently discovered subclass of Low Mass X-ray Binaries. Their growing number makes them an important evolutionary channel of X-ray Binaries. Our goal is to perform spectral analysis and classification of the proposed counterparts to IGR J16358-4726 and IGR J16393-4643 and to establish their nature as X-ray systems. We used the ESO/UT1 ISAAC spectrograph to observe the proposed counterparts to the two sources, obtaining K-band medium resolution spectra (R = 500) with a S/N > 140. Data reduction was performed with the standard procedure. We classified them by means of comparison with published atlases. We performed SED fitting in order to refine the spectral classification. The two counterparts clearly exhibit the typical features of late-type stars, notably strong CO absorption bands in the red part of the spectrum. With information from previous X-ray studies, we classify the two systems as two new members of the SyXB class. For IGR J16393-4643, we considered the most probable counterpart to the system, although three other objects cannot be completely discarded. For this system, we compared our findings with available orbital solutions, constraining the orbital parameters and the mass of the companion star. By including two more systems, we increased to eight the number of known SyXBs, which emerges as a non-negligible category of galactic X-ray binaries.

An averaging principle for a completely integrable stochastic Hamiltonian system

Subjects: subject: Probability (math.PR)

description: We investigate the effective behaviour of a small transversal perturbation of order $ε$ to a completely integrable stochastic Hamiltonian system, by which we mean a stochastic differential equation whose diffusion vector fields are formed from a completely integrable family of Hamiltonian functions $H_i, i=1,\dots n$. An averaging principle is shown to hold and the action component of the solution converges, as $ε\to 0$, to the solution of a deterministic system of differential equations when the time is rescaled at $1/ε$. An estimate for the rate of the convergence is given. In the case when the perturbation is a Hamiltonian vector field, the limiting deterministic system is constant in which case we show that the action component of the solution scaled at $1/ε^2$ converges to that of a limiting stochastic differentiable equation.

Modelling subsurface movement of manurial nitrogen in a shallow unconfined aquifer
Creators: name: Cappelaere, Bernard R.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Increasing pressures towards efficient decision-making in agricultural waste management and groundwater pollution control, are creating the need for improved pollutant routing methods. To optimize the land application of organic wastes, the estimation of the leaching loss of nitrate-nitrogen from the root zone, and the prediction of resulting long-term increases of nitrate concentrations in the receiving groundwater system, are required. Two mathematical models are developed, to simulate, (1), the seasonal vertical movement of nitrates beneath a disposal field, and (2), their long-term areal redistribution in the regional unconfined aquifer. The solute transport formulation accounts for simultaneous convection and hydrodynamic dispersion in the unsaturated and saturated zones. The models are applied to a shallow glacial outwash aquifer in the Lower Fraser Valley of B.C., to illustrate the methodology for their use as a waste management guide. Data was collected at a swine farm located on the upper reaches of the aquifer system, for a pasture site receiving heavy manure applications. Nitrate loss from the field is estimated over one leaching season. Assuming the continuation of current practices on the farm, assessment of the long term impact on regional groundwater quality is attempted. To estimate the precision obtained on the above determinations, the sensitivity of the model outputs to the calibration inputs and to the transport parameters, is tested. This sensitivity analysis also allows for establishing the importance of the transport parameters in controlling the system behaviour. Validity and applicability of the models are discussed. Current data limitations precluded their complete verification. Some weaknesses are identified and modifications are recommended. Recommendations are also made for data acquisition procedures, to further validate the models and to apply the proposed methodology to other similar sites.

description: Stroke remains the leading cause of long-term disability with limited options available to aid in recovery. Significant effort has been made to try and minimize neuronal damage following stroke with use of neuroprotective agents, however, these treatments have yet to show clinical efficacy. Regenerative interventions have since become of huge interest as they provide the potential to restore damaged neural tissue without being limited by a narrow therapeutic window. Neurotrophins, such as brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and their high affinity receptors are actively produced throughout the brain and are involved in regulating neuronal activity and normal day-to-day function. Furthermore, neurotrophins are known to play a significant role in both protection and recovery of function following neurodegenerative diseases such as stroke and traumatic brain injury (TBI). Unfortunately, exogenous administration of these neurotrophins is limited by a lack of blood-brain-barrier (BBB) permeability, poor half-life, and rapid degradation. Therefore, we have focused this review on approaches that provide a direct and sustained neurotrophic support using pharmacological therapies and mimetics, physical activity, and potential drug delivery systems, including discussion around advantages and limitations for use of each of these systems. Finally, we discuss future directions of biomaterial drug-delivery systems, including the incorporation of heparan sulfate (HS) in conjunction with neurotrophin-based interventions.

description: Many non-Abelian finite subgroups of SU (3) have been used to explain the flavor structure of the Standard Model. In order to systematize and classify successful models, a detailed knowledge of their mathematical structure is necessary. In this paper we shall therefore look closely at the series of finite non-Abelian groups known as Delta(6n^2), its smallest members being S3 (n = 1) and S4 (n = 2). For arbitrary n, we determine the conjugacy classes, the irreducible representations, the Kronecker products as well as the Clebsch-Gordan coefficients.

description: This study focuses on determining the characteristics of the young open cluster NGC 6383. To achieve this, the HDBSCAN clustering algorithm is utilized to identify potential cluster members based on galactic coordinates, proper motions, and parallaxes from Gaia Data Release 3. Various parameters of NGC 6383, such as tidal radius, cluster radius, core radius, distance through parallax and isochrone-fitting, proper motion, age, metallicity, and relevant others, are assessed. To perform this analysis, we utilize an extension of Hamiltonian Monte Carlo, the No-U-Turn Sampler. The results of this analysis point out that NGC 6383 is a very young open cluster (∼ 2.7 − 4 Myr). Furthermore, our investigation reveals that the central binary HD 159176 is not a member of the cluster, which was not discussed in previous studies, leading to a revision of its age and other characteristics. Overall, this study contributes to a more accurate and detailed understanding of NGC 6383’s properties.

description: The present study has been carried out with the following objectives: i) To investigate the attributes of source parameters of local and regional earthquakes; ii) To estimate, as accurately as possible, M0,  fc, Δσ and their standard errors to infer their relationship with source size; iii) To quantify high-frequency earthquake ground motion and to study the source scaling. This work is based on observational data of micro, small and moderate -earthquakes for three selected seismic sequences, namely Parkfield (CA, USA), Maule (Chile) and Ferrara (Italy).
For the Parkfield seismic sequence (CA), a data set of 757 (42 clusters) repeating micro-earthquakes (0 ≤ MW ≤ 2), collected using borehole High Resolution Seismic Network (HRSN), have been analyzed and interpreted. We used the coda methodology to compute spectral ratios to obtain accurate values of  fc , Δσ, and M0 for three target clusters (San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Hawaii) of our data. We also performed a general regression on peak ground velocities to obtain reliable seismic spectra of all earthquakes. 
For the Maule seismic sequence, a data set of 172 aftershocks of the 2010 MW 8.8 earthquake (3.7 ≤ MW ≤ 6.2), recorded by more than 100 temporary broadband stations, have been analyzed and interpreted to quantify high-frequency earthquake ground motion in this subduction zone. We completely calibrated the excitation and attenuation of the ground motion in Central Chile. 
For the Ferrara sequence, we calculated moment tensor solutions for 20 events from  MW 5.63 (the largest main event occurred on May 20 2012), down to MW 3.2 by a 1-D velocity model for the crust beneath the Pianura Padana, using all the geophysical and geological information available for the area. The PADANIA model allowed a numerical study on the characteristics of the ground motion in the thick sediments of the flood plain.

Structural and biochemical studies of Sporosarcina pasteurii UreE: a nickel-chaperone involved in the urease activation process
Creators: name: Merloni, Anna <1984>

Subjects: CHIM/03 Chimica generale e inorganica

description: Urease is a nickel-dependent enzyme that catalyzes hydrolysis of urea in the last step of organic nitrogen mineralization. Its active site contains a dinuclear center for Ni(II) ions that must be inserted into the apo-enzyme through the action of four accessory proteins (UreD, UreE, UreF, UreG) leading to activation of urease. UreE, acting as a metallo-chaperone, delivers Ni(II) to the preformed complex of apo-urease-UreDFG and has the capability to enhance the GTPase activity of UreG. This study, focused on characterization of UreE from Sporosarcina pasteurii (SpUreE), represents a piece of information on the structure/mobility-function relationships that control nickel binding by SpUreE and its interaction with SpUreG. A calorimetric analysis revealed the occurrence of a binding event between these proteins with positive cooperativity and a stoichiometry consistent with the formation of the (UreE)2-(UreG)2 hetero-oligomer complex. Chemical Shift Perturbations induced by the protein-protein interaction were analyzed using high-resolution NMR spectroscopy, which allowed to characterize the molecular details of the protein surface of SpUreE involved in the complex formation with SpUreG. Moreover, backbone dynamic properties of SpUreE, determined using 15N relaxation analysis, revealed a general mobility in the nanoseconds time-scale, with the fastest motions observed at the C-termini. The latter analysis made it possible for the first time to characterize of the C-terminal portions, known to contain key residues for metal ion binding, that were not observed in the crystal structure of UreE because of disorder. The residues belonging to this portion of SpUreE feature large CSPs upon addition of SpUreG, showing that their chemical environment is directly affected by protein-protein interaction. Metal ion selectivity and affinity of SpUreE for cognate Ni(II) and non cognate Zn(II) metal ions were determined, and the ability of the protein to select Ni(II) over Zn(II), in consistency with the proposed role in Ni(II) cations transport, was established.

We find out in the limit $μ\rightarrow 0$, the weak field limit and the strong gravitational field can be regarded as a perturbed Schwarzschild metric.

We use methods of Bar-Natan to construct explicit chain maps for each variation of the third Reidemeister move. Then, to show functoriality, we modify arguments used by Clark, Morrison, and Walker to show that induced chain maps are invariant under Carter and Saito's movie moves.

Manufacture of hydroxylamine by reduction of nitric oxide in trickle-bed electrochemical reactors
Creators: name: Bathia, Mahendra Liladhar
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The manufacture of hydroxylamine by electrolytic reduction of nitric oxide was experimentally investigated. The experiments were carried out in a two-compartment packed bed electrochemical reactor consisting of a cathodic bed of tungsten carbide and a lead plate anode. The compartments were separated by an anion exchange membrane which was supported by a bed of glass beads on the anode side. The reduction occurred as the nitric oxide gas and sulphuric acid electrolyte trickled down cocurrently over the tungsten carbide bed. Sulphuric acid was also circulated separately through the anode chamber. The efficiency of tungsten carbide particles for nitric oxide reduction was observed to drop between successive runs. When in operation the activity remained fairly stable for a period of twelve hours. The drop in activity between the runs appeared to be the result of surface oxidation of the particles by dissolved or free oxygen. Tungsten carbide nevertheless gave better performance than a graphite bed electrode. The operating parameters studied over the stabilized portion of the activity of fresh tungsten carbide included catholyte flowrate and composition, catholyte recycle, gas flowrate and composition, particle size, bed dimensions and reactor pressure and temperature. In typical operation at atmospheric pressure, a current efficiency of 62% and a hydroxylamine concentration of 0.03 M were obtained under a current density of 213 A m⁻² . Doubling the pressure approximately doubled the current density under which similar current efficiencies were observed. The hy-droxylamine concentration decreased sharply with increase in catholyte flowrate. Increases in gas flow-rate produced only a moderate increase in current efficiency above a certain current density. In recycling catholyte, the hydroxylamine concentration was built up almost linearly with number of passes of catholyte through the reactor without appreciable drop of current efficiency. The rate of reduction of nitric oxide to hydroxylamine appeared to be controlled by mass transfer. Appropriate mass transfer correlations for trickle-bed reactors were suitably corrected for the present system and applied to predict the theoretical limiting current densities.

description: Magnetization, x-ray diffraction and specific-heat measurements reveal that SmCoAsO undergoes three magnetic phase transitions. A ferromagnetic transition attributed to the Co ions, emerges at TC=57 K with a small saturation moment of 0.15muB/Co. Reorientation of the Co moment to an antiferromagnetic state is obtained at TN2=45 K. The relative high paramagnetic effective moment Peff=1.57 MuB/Co indicates an itinerant ferromagnetic state of the Co sublattice. The third magnetic transition at TN1=5 K is observed clearly in the specific-heat study only. Both magnetic and 57Fe Mossbauer studies show that substitution of small quantities of Fe for Co was unsuccessful.

description: We investigate the effectiveness of the Inverse Laplace Transform (ILT) analysis method to extract the distribution of relaxation rates from nuclear magnetic resonance data with stretched exponential relaxation. Stretched-relaxation is a hallmark of a distribution of relaxation rates, and an analytical expression exists for this distribution for the case of a spin-1/2 nucleus. We compare this theoretical distribution with those extracted via the ILT method for several values of the stretching exponent and at different levels of experimental noise. The ILT accurately captures the distributions for $β\lesssim 0.7$, and for signal to noise ratios greater than $\sim 40$; however the ILT distributions tend to introduce artificial oscillatory components. We further use the ILT approach to analyze stretched relaxation for spin $I>1/2$ and find that the distributions are accurately captured by the theoretical expression for $I=1/2$. Our results provide a solid foundation to interpret distributions of relaxation rates for general spin $I$ in terms of stretched exponential fits.

description: The unprecedented growth of wireless mobile traffic, mainly due to multimedia traffic over online social platforms has strained the resources in the mobile backhaul network. A promising approach to reduce the backhaul load is to proactively cache content at the network edge, taking into account the overlaid social network. Known caching schemes require complete knowledge of the social graph and mainly focus on one-to-one interactions forgoing the prevalent mode of content sharing among circles of 'friends'. We propose Bingo, a proactive content caching scheme that leverages the presence of interest groups in online social networks. The mobile network operator (MNO) can choose to incrementally deploy Bingo at select network nodes (base stations, packet core, data center) based on user profiles and revenue numbers. We approximate the group memberships of users using the available user-content request logs without any prior knowledge of the overlaid social graph. Bingo can cater to the evolving nature of online social groups and file popularity distribution for making caching decisions. We use synthetically generated group structures and simulate user requests at the base station for empirical evaluation against traditional and recent caching schemes. Bingo achieves up to 30%-34% gain over the best baseline.

title: Qualifications of Distributive Education Personnel in the State of Utah 1966-1967 as Compared to Criteria in Distributive Education Issues

description: During 1962, 15,782 businesses in the United States failed. Nearly half, 7,552 of the failures were in the retail field. Causes of failure ranged from insufficient capital to poor store location. However, more than ninety per cent of the failures in retailing are thought to be caused by a lack of training and experience on the part of store owners and their employees. In 1966, the state of Utah had the highest per capita business failure rate of any state in the nation as reported by Dun's Review Magazine. Undoubtedly business failures in Utah are also caused by the lack of training of store owners and their employees. Distributive education is a program of instruction in marketing designed to train people to become better distributive workers. By examining the qualifications of the distributive educators in Utah it may be possible to determine whether the training program for distributive workers is inadequate, whether distributive education personnel of our public schools are unqualified to provide proper training or if the fault lies elsewhere.
Decaying Dark Matter and the Deficit of Dwarf Haloes

description: The hierarchical clustering inherent in Lambda-CDM cosmology seems to produce many of the observed characteristics of large-scale structure. But some glaring problems still remain, including the over-prediction (by a factor 10) of the number of dwarf galaxies within the virialized population of the local group. Several secondary effects have already been proposed to resolve this problem. It is still not clear, however, whether the principal solution rests with astrophysical processes, such as early feedback from supernovae, or possibly with as yet undetermined properties of the dark matter itself. In this paper, we carry out a detailed calculation of the dwarf halo evolution incorporating the effects of a hypothesized dark-matter decay, D -> D'+l, where D is the unstable particle, D' is the more massive daughter particle and l is the other, lighter (or possibly massless) daughter particle. This process preferentially heats the smaller haloes, expanding them during their evolution and reducing their present-day circular velocity. We find that this mechanism can account very well for the factor 4 deficit in the observed number of systems with velocity 10--20 km/s compared to those predicted by the numerical simulations, if dm/m_D' ~ 5-7 x 10^{-5}, where dm is the mass difference between the initial and final states. The corresponding lifetime tau cannot be longer than ~30 Gyr, but may be as short as just a few Gyr.

description: Knowing the past provides many of the ingredients that help to make conditions as they are today and as they might become tomorrow, the author became interested in these ingredients which helped to develop the educational institution known as Snow College. This search for knowledge led the writer to believe there was also a need to preserve some basic factual information about this school and present it as a history. This project, therefore, becomes an effort in the development of such a historical document.

description: Fungi spoiling organisms are silently invading, acidifying, fermenting, discoloring, and disintegrating microbes that render food products unpalatable and unsafe for human consumption. This study aimed at isolation and identification of fungi from packed and unpacked milk, corn flour and soya bean. These samples were randomly purchased from vendors in Ekeonuwa market, Owerri and were analyzed using standard microbiological techniques. The findings of this study showed the presence of fungi contamination in these food products except for packed milk which had no fungi growth. The packed corn flour had a total fungi count of 3.1 x 104 Cfu/g, while soya bean flour had a total fungi count of 2.9 x 104 Cfu/g. However, the unpacked milk had a total fungus count of 3.2 x 105 cfu/g, corn flour had 3.7 x 105 cfu/g and soya bean had 3.0 x 105 cfu/g. Four genera of fungi were identified which are; Aspergillus, Rhizopus, Mucor and Penicillium. These fungi had various percentage occurrences. Aspergillus spp. was found to have the highest percentage occurrence of 35.7%, Penicillium spp. had 28.6%, Rhizopus spp. had 21.4% while Fusarium spp. had the least percentage of 14.3%. The recovery of these fungi from this research shows that there is fear of consumption of mycotoxins because of their serious health implication, as they can be highly toxic and carcinogenic, thus rendering the food products unfit for human and animal consumption.
title: A Descriptive Analysis of Eight Remedial Reading Students in the Sevier District Schools

description: Authorities have variously estimated the number of children with a reading disability to be between ten and fifteen percent of the total school population.1,2,3 Formerly, many children who had reading difficulties perhaps left school at an early age. Also, many children who might have had reading problems perhaps remained undetected before widespread group testing was initiated. Today, with the high premium placed upon high school and even college achievement, an education is, so to speak, a prerequisite to adult success. With reading unique in its being both a subject area and a tool necessary for the mastery of other subject areas, any disability is worthy of concern and consideration.
On exact solutions for quantum particles with spin S= 0, 1/2, 1 and de Sitter event horizon

description: Exact wave solutions for particles with spin 0, 1/2 and 1 in the static coordinates of the de Sitter space-time model are examined in detail. Firstly, for a scalar particle, two pairs of linearly independent solutions are specified explicitly: running and standing waves. A known algorithm for calculation of the reflection coefficient $R_{εj}$ on the background of the de Sitter space-time model is analyzed. It is shown that the determination of R_{εj} requires an additional constrain on quantum numbers ερ/ \hbar c >> j, where ρis a curvature radius. When taken into account of this condition, the R_{εj} vanishes identically. It is claimed that the calculation of the reflection coefficient R_{εj} is not required at all because there is no barrier in an effective potential curve on the background of the de Sitter space-time. The same conclusion holds for arbitrary particles with higher spins, it is demonstrated explicitly with the help of exact solutions for electromagnetic and Dirac fields.
