dc.description.abstract

value:
Many epithets used in the Egyptian Middle Kingdom to glorify kings are not unique to royal texts
and can be traced in earlier laudatory autobiographies of non-royal persons. Here the phraseology of
the Lahun Hymns to the 12th Dynasty king Senwosret III is analyzed, which had much in common
with the texts of local rulers and high officials of the First Intermediate Period and the beginning of
the Middle Kingdom. As the private and the royal spheres are traditionally separated in Egyptology,
theories suggest that either royal eulogists had adopted phraseology originally used to celebrate
local rulers, or that non-royals had borrowed from the lost royal repertoire. The contradiction in the
directions of borrowing between private and royal texts would be irrelevant though, if we question the
reality of absolute distinction between the two spheres.

value:
This article is devoted to the issue of etymological nature of verb- and noun-based phrasal
compounds in Hausa. The research was conducted as follows: collecting data, morphological and
syntactical analysis, etymological analysis. An attempt was made to arrange a classification on
etymological basis. The possible grouping presented in the article is: loan translations, adoptions and
originally Hausa units. Consistent analyses has indicated that the most commonly used units are those
having original Hausa words as both parts. That is true for both noun- and verb-based compounds.
The second presented units are those with loan words as parts of compounds. Nowadays there seem
to appear more phraseological units based on adoptions from other languages but they are not that
numerous. Data for the research comes from the internet articles, fiction literature texts and Hausa
chronicles. Refs 6.

value:
Cognitive aging, just like biological aging, is a heterogeneous and highly individual process. As a result
of this process, even people having physiological brain damage associated with Alzheimer disease
(revealed through post-mortal studies) can demonstrate no impairment in cognitive functioning. The
present paper is a review of modern studies of cognitive reserve phenomenon. In the paper main
components of cognitive reserve proposed by Ya. Stern are reflected, as well as factors and possible
empirical approaches to investigation of cognitive reserve. Among the factors education, bilinguism,
noradrenaline functioning and emotional processes are mentioned. Psychological and psychophysiological methods of cognitive reserve investigation are described. In particular, attention is paid to the
model of cognitive reserve proposed by M. Nucci and the opportunities of cognitive reserve investigation
using PET. As a conclusion, the possibility of application of this concept in Russian studies and
possible specifics of such studies is discussed. Refs 25.

dc.description.abstract

value:
This paper deals with one of the most relevant and ambiguous aspects of Ezra Pound’s Chinese translations
through an integrated, interdisciplinary approach. The research problem lies in evaluating the
very reliability and adequacy of a so-called multilayered translation. The object of research is the literary
heritage of Ezra Pound as a translator based on Imagist, Vorticist principles and Ernest Fenollosa’s
ideogrammic method. The aim of research is to disclose, comprehensively analyse, systematise and
practically verify the translation transformations applied by Ezra Pound within the “Cathay” volume.
The research hypothesis is that a multilayered translation may be considered a valid translation. Ezra
Pound’s “Cathay”, regardless of its indubitable amateurish foundation and target reader orientation,
has managed to initiate an intercultural dialogue which has immutably persisted in the post-“Cathay”
era. Thus, Pound has contributed significantly more to comparative literature than galaxies of experienced,
albeit reactionary, scholars of the 19–20th century have. Overall, this article should be of interest
to readers, because results of research constitute a theoretical and practical basis for the multiple-lens
approach towards a Chinese poetry translation. Refs 17.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The paper by Tcvetkova S. O. “The image of Krishna in the poems of Mīrā̃ Bāī» deals with the problem
of the religious ideas reflected in the poetical heritage of Mīrā̃ Bāī (1499–1547), the famous poetess and
one of the most prominent exponents of the Krishna bhakti cult in Northern India. It is traditionally
accepted that Mīrā̃ never was a member of any of the religious communities of her age nor was she a
follower of any «earthy» religious preceptor, — it was the Lord Krishna by his own who became her
“true teacher” (satgūru). The scholars nevertheless find in her verses-songs (bhajans) many traces of
the probable influences from the part of some religious sects — namely the influence of the sermons
of the Krishna-bhakti doctrines of Vallābhācārya (1478–1530) and Caitanya (1486–1533) as well as
the teaching of the shaivite yogīs (nāthas). The image of beloved divine Krishna as depicted in the
bhajans of Mīrā̃ can throw light to this question. Krishna is represented in her poetry in two main
appearances: as Gopāl (the Herdsman), the iconic form traditionally accepted in Krishna-bhakti cult,
and as an ascetic yogī (nātha). Analyzing the possible reasons of such an unexpected representation
of Krishna as the latter in the bhajans of a Krishnaite devotee the author of this paper considers it to
be due to the influence of the conception of «bhakti-rasa» elaborated by the school of the followers of
Caitanya. Refs 11.

The stable isotopic and tritium content of precipitation and groundwater were studied in the Crimean
Mountains. Stable isotopes of water (δ18О and δ2Н) and tritium were used to assess sources of water
in the shallow groundwater and surface-water systems, and to better understand groundwater/
surface-water interactions. The δ18О values of groundwater range from –10,3 to –8,7 ‰ with corresponding
δ2Н values of –65,2 to –59,6 ‰. These are mainly scattered along the local meteoric water
line, meaning meteoric origin. The weighted average concentration of stable isotopic δ18О and δ2Н
in the rainfall (>17mm/day) for the summer season of 2013 were approximately –7,9 and –55,6 ‰
respectively. Formation of groundwater is caused by the infi ltration of precipitation. Additional information
has been obtained from tritium data. Refs 15. Figs 7. Tables 9.

value:
Based on the analysis of factors of exogenous relief formation, the article discusses the genesis of the
anthropomorphic and zoomorphic forms of relief. Science is dominated by the view that such stone
sculptures, found all over the planet, are a “game” of nature. It is claimed, confi dently and without
evidence, that they were created by various natural processes. In the spread of animal and anthropomorphic
forms of relief there are certain patterns that indicate their anthropogenic origin. They occur
very selectively in certain locations under diff erent geological-geomorphological and climatic conditions.
At the same time on the other sites with similar environments to the places of their distribution
they are absent. Many of these forms are confined to river valleys or to watershed locations convenient
for the settlement of geographical space. The list created by the forms are limited to only some living
things, well known to modern man. Distribution features of “fancy” morphosculpture rule out its
natural Genesis and suggest its natural and anthropogenic origin. This conclusion is also supported
from the position of consideration of anthropomorphic and zoomorphic shapes as also megaliths —
the elements and indicators of the development of ancient geographical space. Refs. 14. Figs. 5.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The notion of ethnic field was suggested by L. N. Gumilyov. The field includes two components: energetic
and informational. The first one depicts the amount of passionate (creative) energy (engine analogue),
the other shows how people having such energy (steering wheel analogue) to act. The authors
present a new concept model (pattern) of the ethnic field informational component, based on Pierre
Bourdieu and Kurt Lewin understanding of social and psychological fields.
The ethnic field concept demonstrates interaction between different ethnic groups and between
the ethnos and the landscape as the ethnic field creates its own ethno-cultural layer in the landscape. In
the framework of the ethnic field the cultural landscape becomes a text, the meaning of which is clear
to the ethnic community having created this field, but it can be obscure to other ethnic communities.
This article deals with the method of ethno-cultural information structuring on the materials of
northern indigenous peoples’ reindeer herding studies. For this purpose we suggest selecting different
level contexts similar to the semantic text analysis (one general context may comprise some particular
ones). A context is an information construct which defi nes human behavior stereotypes in the ethnic
field. Coming across a problem situation humans think it over in the background of their ethnic field.
The ethnic field contextual analysis allows for a better understanding of the causes of tension and
conflicts arising in ethno-contact areas. Refs 12.

value:
The problem of recreational space formation around rural settlements is considered in the paper. According
to the authors recreational space of the village is a combination of recreation lands and recreation
facilities around the village. It has a zonal structure (near, intermediate, far zones) which is determined
by the discreteness of recreational time, physiological peculiarities of a person, also the ways of
movement in space (walking, using transport). Recreational zones have a recreational “specialization”.
In the near zone there are the main places of recreation for the local population, in the intermediate
zone there are the main recreational lands, in the far zone there are the distant recreational lands. Recreational
space used by the local population has its own local names. The behavior of non-local tourists
before the 1990s was defined by the zonal structure of the local recreational space. The emergence of
new forms of settlements (holiday villages) leads to the formation of new recreational areas of holiday
village recreation, which leads to the transformation of the prevailing local recreational space. For
holiday village recreation is characterized by the absence of the intermediate recreation zone, which is

The 230Th/U ages determined were compared with dates obtained earlier by other geochronometric
methods. The high sea terraces of the Spitsbergen Archipelago from 70 to 100 m heights were formed
during the Late Neopleistocene. Based on the ages obtained the palaeogeographic reconstructions of
the Spitsbergen Archipelago coastlines have been refi ned and expanded. Refs 16. Fig 1. Tables 2.

The article discusses the tourist and recreational potential of Pridnestrovie, the current state of tourism,
as well as prospects for the development of tourism and recreation in modern conditions. Despite
its isolation and unacknowledged status, Pridnestrovian region has rich natural resources, historical,
cultural, tourist and recreational potential. We consider the natural conditions for tourist’s development
and specify the most attractive and visited facilities for recreation and tourism. The article describes
the current state of infrastructure in the region. There are some statistical data of the Pridnestrovians’
departure abroad for tourism, as well as the entry of foreign citizens in Pridnestrovie for
tourism, recreation and leisure purposes. There are some factors that impede the travelling of citizens
of Pridnestrovie for the purpose of leisure, relaxation and recreation. The article presents the data of
the number of foreign tourists who visited Pridnestrovie in 2013 and 2014. It also shows the level of
touristic income in the republic. The article describes the tourist and recreational facilities, which have
been undergone restoration. It raises the problems and expounds on the factors affecting the development
of tourism in Pridnestrovie, and proposes some measures and recommendations to optimize the
tourist and recreational activities in the region. Refs 13. Fig. 1. Tables 2.

Black shales of the Early Paleozoic age are widespread in Sweden, forming part of the Baltic paleobasin,
sediments of which are also known in Estonia and Leningrad region of Russia. Black shales accumulate
chemical elements, contents of which exceed the Clarke values: Re — 700, Ag — 12, U — 10,
Mo — 10, Pd — 4.7, V — 4.2, Pt — 3.5, Au — 3 times. Colloid-salt fraction (nanofraction) with particle
size of less than 1000 nm was extracted with water from the rock and analyzed by ICP MS method.
Accumulation coeffi cient of chemical elements in comparison with the total analysis is for Pd — 47, for
Co, Ni, Cd — from 15 to 31, for U, Cu, Zn and Re — from 3 to 10. The geochemistry of black shales is
similar, but diff erent in chemistry of nanofractions, which can be an important distinction of deposits.
Water-soluble mobile forms of elements can be washed out of the rock and migrate to the environment,
creating the increased natural geochemical background of the area. Refs 27. Figs 3. Tables 2.

dc.description.abstract

value:
According to the B.Pozen’s concept, a “security dilemma” occurs in situations of weakness or collapse
of central authorities. Consequentially, if public institutions do not undertake eff orts to prevent the
politicisation of ethnicity, to provide communication between ethnic groups and to allow their claims
(or do not have the capacity and resources to do so), than the risk that ethnic groups will face the security
dilemma increases. This opens a “window of opportunity” for “ethnic entrepreneurs”. However,
the ethnopolitical mobilisation of one group may interpreted by the other as a threat, especially in the
presence of negative historical experience in their relationship. It’s not surprising that many researchers
into ethnic conflicts have strong beliefs that such conflicts generate a sense of security threats between
members of one ethnic group, in a situation when they do not know the intention of the opposing group
to which they are hostile or who ascribe a hostile intent. It does not matter whether the threat is real or
not: according to Thomas’ theory, if people define situations as real, it is real in its consequences. As a
result, groups begin to present their differences with the opposing group as a threat to security for members
of the community. These perceived (either traceable or provoked) threats can serve as incentives for preventing attacks or ethno-political mobilisation of other groups as a response, which in turn can
be interpreted by the leaders of the other groups as a threat to their security. Thus, “the efforts of each
participant to ensure their own security, on the contrary, increases the probability of armed conflict”,
because they generate a mobilisation spiral, and can lead to the initiation of violent acts. Refs 15.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The changing environment in the Arctic has had great impact on the global ecosystem and socio-economic
activities. This paper emphasizes that the multilevel paradigm of Arctic governance is a manifestation
of collective action in dealing with common challenges at global level. At the regional level,
the Rovaniemi process seeks a common identity from a wide range of actors, encouraging them to
provide public goods whilst protecting the exclusiveness of their interests. The Ilulissat process at the
sub-regional level is in pursuit of centralizing the cooperation among state actors, facilitating internal
consultation over specific disputes and exclusive jurisdictional restriction. This paper also argues that
China, as a major stakeholder in Arctic governance, has demonstrated its capacity to improve the governance
structure at global, regional and sectorial levels displaying its willingness to become a practitioner
of scientific cooperation, a pioneer of ecosystem and environmental protection, a contributor to
the development of shipping and a promoter of the development of indigenous communities. Refs 45.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The purpose of this article is to summarise the di verse aspects of the scientifi c discussion revolving
around the notion itself and complicated questions of the modern theory of modernisation. One of the
main points of discussion is the new relationship between once such dissimilar conceptions as modernisation,
democratisation and globalisation. These conceptions have been brought together at the
end of the 20th century and since that time have usually been confl ated, often maintaining a heterogeneous
sense. The terms “modernisation” and “globalisation” have come to be emotionally charged
in public discourse. For some, they imply the promise of an international civil society, conducive to a
new era of peace and democratisation. For others, they imply the threat of an American economic and
political hegemony, with the cultural consequence being a homogenised world. Nevertheless, some
distinct characteristics defining the general tendencies of the modernisation process really do exist.
The main tendency is the changing meaning of modernity, or the emergence of “alternative modernities”.
There is also the increasingly significant phenomenon of alternative globalisations that is, cultural
movements with a global outreach originating outside the Western world and indeed impacting on
the latter. The second trend is related to a crisis in the legitimacy of the nation-state tradition forcing
a review of the problem of the role of democracy in the modern world. S. M. Lipset’s observation that
democracy is related to economic development, first advanced in 1959, has generated the largest body
of research on any topic in political science. Yet there are two distinct reasons this relation may hold:
either democracies may be more likely to emerge as countries that develop economically (S. P. Huntington,
R. Inglehart), or they may be established independently of economic development but may be
more likely to survive in developed countries. The basic assumption of the theory of modernisation, in
any of its versions, is that there is one general process of which democratisation is but the final stage.
Modernisation consists of a gradual diff erentiation and specialisation of social structures that culminates
in a separation of political structures from other structures and makes democracy possible. But
there is now a prevailing view, according to which the emergence of democracy is not a by-product of
economic development (G. O’Donnell). The protagonists of this approach do not believe that the fate
of democratic rule would be determined exclusively by current levels of economic development. They
maintain that, albeit within constraints, democratisation is an outcome of human actions, not just one
of economic conditions or an historical past (A. Giddens, R. M. Unger). Refs 36.

value:
The degree of human progress is determined not only by the level of development of the productive
forces and modes of social production, but also by the degree of humanity’s ability to systematise
fundamental problems of life and find the best way to address them for the benefit of all humankind.
Some of these problems are to maintain the purity of the surrounding living world environment, and
consequently the life of humankind, as well as an understanding of ecology as a set of conditions, guaranteeing
sustainable development on the planet Earth. Nature itself leads people to treat the environment
with increasing attention. Evidence of this can be found in the dozens of international meetings,
discussions and agreements on norms and rules of a relationship to nature. The strict rule “do not soil
where you live” applies equally well to the common home of humankind. The article traces the evolution
of people’s relationship to the environment, and examines the factors that led states to develop a
new Framework Convention on climate with commitments of the countries for periods up to 2030 and
2100, designed to replace the current Convention and the Kyoto Protocol to it. Refs 28.

Using a sample of soil formation during self-restoration succession at post-technogenic plot in the
middle taiga subzone, we have discussed the following questions: soil as an ecosystemic component;
main factor and principles of soil formation; resistance mechanism of ecosystem and its components.
The studies were conducted at two sample plots which had formed under the same conditions on
homogeneous technogenic material during self-restoration succession of perennial grassy and forest
(alder) ecosystems. The theoretical approach was based on the principle of systematicity. In accordance
with that principle, plant composition, productivity of plant community, microbe complex, composition
of water-soluble substances, morphology and chemical characteristics of soils were surveyed.
Plant community types were found to be associated with morphological structure and properties of
newly-formed soils, as a result of biological factor and biological organic (plant) matter cycle. Complex investigation of soil formation during self-restoration succession of diff erent-type plant communities
allowed for identifying soil formation as a formation process of biogenic-accumulative ecosystemic
component which ensures stable self-reproduction of plant communities and whole ecosystem.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Vacuolar Н+-АТPase is one of the most crucial and widely spread proton-transporting enzymes of eukaryotic
cells. It fulfi ls many vital functions. The enzyme is represented as a multisubunit complex, organized
in two domains, V1 and V0. The review summarizes modern data on plant cell H+-V-ATPase.
Regulation of proton pump activity is analyzed for different level of plant organism complicity. A
number of vacuolar Н+-АТPase subunits are encoded by more than one gene. Thus the importance of
regulation at transcription level is discussed. Special attention is paid to analysis of diff erent ways of
regulating activity of the enzyme at post-translation level. Refs 60. Table 1.

The variability of cotton accessions (Gossypium Hirsutum L.) with different leaf forms under non-irrigated conditions. Vestnik of Saint-Petersburg University. Series 3. Biology, 2016, issue 2, pp. 70–86. DOI: 10.21638/11701/spbu03.2016.205

dc.description.abstract

value:
30 specimens of cotton with different leaf forms from Australia were evaluated under non-irrigated
conditions at the VIR Budionnovsk experiment station in Stavropol region Australian samples during
the first three years of trials were significantly later-ripening than the local standard POSS-2, but in the
last 2 years only the Super Okra leaf genotypes were a little later-ripening.
On agronomical traits most studied Australian accessions exceed the POSS-2 standard (by length
of fibres — 30–32 vs. 25–27 mm, by turnout — 38–40 vs. 34–36%, by boll weight 5.6–5.8 vs 5.1–4.6 g),
and may be used as sources of these features in breeding.
Analysis of variability of traits in groups with different leaves form shows that the samples with
Okra leaf are close to group varieties with typical leaf form in terms of variability character, but Super
Okra leaf varieties vary greatly in terms of productivity and duration of the germination-maturity period.
Research has shown that in dry years Super Okra leaf genotypes exceeded the normal leaf accessions,
including standard ones, on productivity which is associated with a lower need for moisture
plants with smaller leaves area. It is important to use such varieties, adapted to drought, in breeding
of cotton in the Stavropol region, as there is currently a progressive climate aridization in this zone.

differences in their vertical and horizontal structure and history. All investigated coenopopulations are
not ontogenetically complete. The coenopopulations in the broadleaved stands aren’t able to establish
the generation flow even if elements of the gap mosaic are presented. Sustainable coenopopulations
of Q. robur are shown to be situated in the pine stands with sparse broadleaved individuals, disperse

This article presents the study of zooplankton of raised bog hollows in the central part of the Vologda
Region. In total, 36 species (14 — Rotatoria, 13 — Cladocera, 9 — Copepoda, listed in the article)
were found in the Shichengskoe mire. The most taxa were registered in spring. Detritus consumers,
second-order filterers, and predators predominated. Characteristic features of studied communities
were as follows: domination of Rotatoria and Copepoda, mainly small-sized, and constant presence of
meiobenthos. In autumn, total biomass increased due to auspicious thermal conditions. Mean values
of zooplankton biomass and composition of the domination complex were stable during three years
of study. Changes in zooplankton density were determined by interannual fluctuations of mire water
level. Zooplankton communities of raised bog hollows of south and middle taiga vary in species
composition and quantitative parameters, but are similar in ecological groups and seasonal dynamics.

of S. keyserlingii from southeast of Western Siberia and northeast of Asia and in males of S. tridactyla
from south of Russian Far East. Both analyses showed a high degree of similarity of sperm parameters
in the individual, population and species levels. The absence of marked interspecific differences in
sperm morphology between these species is consistent with literature data on the possibility of interspecific hybridisation in laboratory and natural conditions. Refs 36. Figs 4. Tables 4.

Most of the territory of the Navoiy province of Nurata region is occupied by the degraded pastures
which are the main source of food supply of animal husbandry. This paper is devoted to investigation
of agrochemical and microbiological properties of soils of pastures under agrophytocenosis of 1986,
1996, 2012 and under natural pastures of the study area. It is revealed that improvement of biological,
agrochemical properties of the studied soils, depends on duration of the period of use of the land in the

Spectrophotometric methods have been used to investigate the complex formation of copper
with 2,6-dimercaptophenol and its derivatives (2,6-mercapto-4-methylphenol and 2,6-dimercapto-
4-tert -buthylphenol) in the presence of aminophenols. As aminophenols 2-(N,N-dimethylaminomethyl)-
4-methylphenol, 2-(N,N-dimethylaminomethyl)-4-chlorophenol, 2-(N,N-dimethylaminomethyl)-
4-bromophenol, 2,6-bis(N,N-dimethylaminomethyl)-4-methylphenol, 2,6-bis(N,N-dimethylaminomethyl)-
4-chlorophenol and 2,6-bis(N,N-dimethylaminomethyl)-4-bromophenol
were used. It was established that a mixed ligand complex was formed in a weak acidic medium
(pHop = 4.7 ÷ 7.4). The maximum of light absorption was observed at λ = 470 ÷ 485 nm. Molar
coefficient of light absorption was ε = (3.58÷4.05)·104 L·mol−1·cm−1. On the basis of the results,
a photometric method for determination of copper in steel for use in different trade-marks and in
food preparation has been proposed. This method is characterized by good reproduction (relative
standard deviation does not exceed 0,05) and low limit of quantitation. Refs 24. Figs 3. Tables 7.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Ionic liquids (IL) are often referred to as organic compounds consisting of a cation and an organic
or non-organic anion, having a melting point below 100°C. Cations determine the physical properties
of IL (melting point, viscosity, density), whereas anions determine chemical properties. Since
the physical and chemical properties of ILs can be adapted to the specific conditions by careful
selection of cations and anions, IL has become widely used in a variety of scientific and industrial
applications. This research is part of a program devoted to the study of the effects of glycerol on
the micellization of IL in aqueous solutions that is of great interest for cosmetology, pharmaceutical
and other industries. Significant work in this research has been undertaken and the results are
summarized in the present paper. The research of the system IL — glycerol — heavy water was
conducted using NMR technique. Existence of molecular aggregates in glycerol-water media was
confirmed. Isotopic exchange of H↔D was investigated. The micellization concentration range
for this system was obtained. Refs 42. Figs 13.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Experimental volt-ampere characteristics in plasma and electrolytes are presented. As it was
shown, electrons quickly leave a discharge volume in conditions of low pressures. As a result,
ionic plasma forms. Parameters of the plasma could be calculated with the application of Langmuir’s
theory. An increased value of temperature could be associated with collisions in a volume
distributed charge sheath. A temperature correction was made with a method, taking into account
collision processes within the sheath. As it noted, the volt-ampere characteristic becomes
linear when many collisions occur in the sheath. A comparison of the characteristics in ion-ionic plasma and electrolytes also was made. The ion-ionic plasma has a similar electrolyte charge
kinetics. Measured linear characteristic means a bending out from the Maxwell distribution. An
existence of a small current near zero of potential in solutions concerns with the formation of the
sheath. The formation is under the influence of the positive and negative ions drift, a hydration
and spatial orientations of molecules of the water. Refs 10. Figs 12. Tables 1.

value:
Reaction between 8-hydroxyquinaldine and 4-pyridincarboxaldehyde in acetic anhydride medium
via Knoevenagel condensation can lead to the formation of different forms of styryl derivatives.
2-(2-(pyridine-4-yl)vinyl)quinolin-8-ol which received under different conditions has been studied
with the help of two-dimensional NOESY H-H and J-resolved spectroscopy and gas- phase quantum
chemical DFT-calculation methods. It has been found out that induction by light causes
the formation of cis-form. At the same time trans-isomer is formed during the reaction conducted
without any additional irradiation. Trans-isomer is formed due to the hydrochloride acid
treatment of the reaction mixture. Calculations have shown that only two spatial forms, each of
which is a mix of rotational conformers are possible out of two products configuration. In the
spectra of each of the isomers cross-peaks are observed which are typical for the superposition of
the configuration pair. It was shown that the transformation of a less stable form cis-isomer into
trans-isomer also occurs when affected by light but with a longer wavelength. Refs 18. Figs 3.

The kinetics of ion exchange of copper, cobalt, calcium, potassium and cesium on an inorganic ion
exchanger “polisurmin” from antimony and silicon and the composite material from “polisurmin”
and an organic polymer has been investigated. It was found that the degree of exchange of close
to 1, achieved during 2 days or less, with at polisurmine exchange is faster. It was shown that the
kinetic dependences of the investigated ions are generally similar, but have individual features.
Value reaches capacity and its time dependence depend on the composition and structure of the
resin and the properties of the absorbing ion. Results have been evaluated, so far as is possible
under the given conditions, in order to define the limiting stage of the process. Selectivity rows

dc.description.abstract

value:
With the use of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy (at an Larmor frequence of 600
MHz for proton resonance) and gel-permeation chromatography (GPC), the industrial polybutadiene
rubbers with high cis-1,4-units content produced on neodymium and cobalt-containing
catalytic systems were studied. An analysis has been made of the NMR spectra (both 1H and 13C)
for different types of deuterated solvents and concentrations of solutions. As a result, the structure
of terminal units and the equivalent weight (molecular weight per terminal group) of test butadiene
rubbers were determined. From viscometry equipped GPC data — the branching parameter
and from NMR data — the number-averaged molecular weights were also calculated. It is shown
that in the package with viscometry equipped GPC data, modern 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy
offers scope for ascertainment of results for determining molecular-weight-distributions. Refs 15.

the efficiency of sorption preconcentration on both types of sorbents, the optimum mass content of
carbon on PTFE, and also optimized the conditions for rapid sorption preconcentration of phenol
from aqueous solutions, such as the geometrical dimensions of the column, the flow rate of the
water sample through the adsorption column, an organic solvent for desorption. Optimization of
conditions for preconcentration was conducted with a focus on further quantification of phenol
by HPLC with most common and commercially available spectrophotometric detector. Refs 16.

The sensitivity of technique of nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) in measuring of the echo
signals of ore, containing chalcopyrite CuFeS2, was investigated. It is shown that the quadrupole
echo signals are observed until the sample occupies no less than 10% of the total volume of
the solenoidal coil sensor of NQR spectrometer. Industrially manufactured NQR spectrometer
Redstone with the standard sensor was used. It is shown that further reduction of the volume
of the sample leads to signal/noise ratio is less than 1 and the observation is only possible with
a multiple increase of the number of savings. Refs 18. Figs 4.

title: The stochastic model of turbulence: Simplification of the diagram technique in high dimensions

dc.description.abstract

value:
A stochastic model of turbulence is studied by the renormalization group approach in high dimensions
d→ ∞. This asymptotic problem is of interest in connection with the fact that there are
reasons to believe that in this limit the anomalous scaling vanish and Kolmogorov theory become
fair. The paper shows the possibility of significant reduction in the number of Feynman diagrams
in the calculation of β-function in this limit. It is shown that in addition to the previously known
mechanism of simplification of calculations associated with the insignificance of diagrams that
contain scalar products of different wave vectors as multipliers in the limit of d → ∞, there is
a more complex mechanism, caused by the mutual reduction of certain groups of diagrams after
renormalization. With these simplifications, only 9 of 4080 diagrams are significant in the thirdorder
perturbation theory. This opens up additional opportunities for the calculations in the high
orders of the perturbation theory. Refs 11.

The development of the concept of nonclassical structures of compounds with a tetracoordinated
pyramidal carbon atom is considered on the basis of the example of stabilisation and the electronic
structure of the parent representative of polyhedral compounds of this type — pyramidane. The
data concerned with the synthesis and determination of molecular structures of analogues of
pyramidane with elements of 14 group (Si, Ge, Sn, Pb) in apices of square pyramids is presented.

title: Borel resummation of the ε-expansion of the Fisher exponent up to the sixth order of perturbation theory

dc.description.abstract

value:
It is well known that a series obtained in the framework of the renormalization group and ε-expansion
in ϕ4-model are asymptotic. Resummation of the Fisher exponent η using Borel transform
with conformal mapping up to six loop approximation of the anomalous field dimension γϕ(u) was
demonstrated in a recent paper of one of the co-authors (u — coupling constant). In this paper
such a resummation of γϕ(u) and beta function β(u) as a function of u was performed in two
stages. First, u∗ value was found as zero of the resummed beta function, then resummation of
the anomalous field dimension was performed at u = u∗. In this paper we perform resummation
of the Fisher exponent η(ε) as a function of ε at six loop level. We performed comparison of our
results with results obtained in cited paper as well as with estimations of the Fisher exponent
from the high temperature expansions and Monte Carlo simulations for 3D systems and Onsager’s
exact solution for two dimensional Ising model. Refs 12. Fig 1. Table 1.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Between 2003 and 2012 in the Alexandrovskaya Hospital of St. Petersburg, Russia 2200 patients were
hospitalized with cancer of the left colon complicated by acute intestinal obstruction, ageing from
26 to 91 years. 44.2% were men, 55.8% were women. The subjects of the study were 1019 patients
in whom distant metastases had not been identifi ed. This study is an analysis of the role of physical,
laboratory and instrumental methods of examining patients with acute intestinal obstruction due to
cancer of left colon. Conclusions: 1. Up to 80% of patients were admitted to hospital aft er 48 hours
from onset of the acute period of the disease, affecting the variability of clinical manifestations in acute
intestinal obstruction due to cancer of left colon. 2. From instrumental methods, the most informative
is X-ray examination. When ultrasound is characterized by a tensile intestinal loops. 3. Fibrocolonoscopy, with effectively implementation, allows for a 100% positive diagnosis, but only 13.7% of subjects
go on to therapeutic manipulation. 4. Laparoscopy avoids a long-term observation of the passage of
barium sulfate in patients with suspected acute intestinal obstruction and is the most effective way to
determine the cause of intestinal obstruction in a complex of diagnostic measures. It is an effective
diagnostic tool for fi rst-stage or final stage in the treatment of intestinal obstruction. 5. Computed tomography,
having a sensitivity of 97.4% is the preferred method of detecting metastases to determine
the source and extent of tumour growth which certainly can and should influence the decision as to
adopt a surgical approach. Refs 10. Tables 9.
