dc.description.abstract

value:
As a pupil and subsequently colleague of prof. Alexander I. Zaicev (1926–2000) the author endeavours
to cite certain apophthegms on classical scholarship and/or approaches to antiquity formulated or hinted at by
that outstanding scholar and teacher at the University of St. Petersburg on one occasion or another between
1960 and 2000. While still academically young, A. I. Zaicev had already had a gruelling experience of a person
incarcerated in the Kazan psychiatric special institution (read jail) for political confinement in the course of the
Stalinist repressions from 1947/48. After his liberation in 1954 Zaicev was able to return to Leningrad, finish
his studies and continue them as a post-graduate. As an assistant at the Classical department of the Philological
Faculty he made his way both in scholarship (PhD at Philological faculty in 1969 and Doctorship in historical
studies at the Historical Faculty in 1987) and teaching. His strong opinions were remarkable indeed as part of
both lived-through experience and cognitive adventure of his much-enduring generation. As Zaicev’s teaching
resulted meanwhile in a sort of school following a few of his interests and / or principles it seems not void
of sense to recollect and to think about his agrapha dogmata — not by chance one of his aphorisms said that
“among other things, pupils inherit their teacher’s mistakes”. Of course some distortions are liable to happen
in the situation when the spoken words were not written down, but the present author aspires to retain the
ipsissima verba, as well as their smart, apodictic turn, sometimes ornamented with grotesque or touched with a
stroke of humour. This circumstance was not the only but the major cause for preserving the original language
here. On the other hand, these sayings turned out to need a commentary — otherwise the original meaning of
some of them might well be misunderstood now. On the whole they seem to preserve the atmosphere Zaicev’s
personality created — extremely active both as teacher and scholar, nourished by the reading of Plato and
Aristotle, formed by the ideas of the (ir)responsibility of modern intellectuals (strong impact of Julien Benda’s
thought) and deeply influenced by his Catholicism. Both his character and thought were steeled by early imprisonment
and further political pressure and — last not least — by everyday hard work at this University until
his last days. His maxims on scholarship and scholars form a unique whole and are well understandable when
regarded in the context of his tasks, reading and ideas.

dc.description.abstract

The article investigates the uses to which the figures of the Muse(s) are put in the poetics of Pindar and
Bacchylides, considered against the background of their earlier employments in elegiac and melic poetry.
Based on a thorough examination of the evidence, it argues that the two poets pursue different strategies:
whereas Bacchylides develops a poetic mythology of named Muses (particularly, Ourania), Pindar redeploys
the single unnamed Muse of the earlier hexameter and choral traditions, envisioning her as the poet’s
collaborator. Pindar may thus be seen to originate the notion of the Muse as a deity associated with poetic
composition, as contrasted with her mnemonic-epistemic role in hexameter verse.

title: THE SWEDISH PERIPHRASTIC CONSTRUCTIONS WITH THE VERBS FÅ AND KOMMA

dc.contributor.author

value: Chekalina, Elena

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article discusses Swedish periphrastic constructions with the telic verbs få ‘receive’
and komma ‘come’ and the infinitive of verbs that only take animate semantic
subjects.
In the construction få + infinitive the first element is used only with intransitive
verbs and has modal meaning either caused by external factors of possibility (may, be
allowed to, be permitted to) and/or necessity (have to). In certain contexts the construction
can also have actional meaning of delimitative aktionsart, especially when used
with adverbials denoting a short time period: en stund ‘for a while’ and litet ‘a little’.
With intransitive verbs of perception se ‘see’, höra ‘hear’, veta ‘know’, känna ‘feel’, erfara
‘learn’, uppleva ‘experience, know’ the verb få loses its modal semantics and becomes a
set phraseological unit with ingressive semantics of efficient result.
In the construction komma att + infinitive the first component can be used with
both transitive and intransitive verbs. Its semantics is based on the meaning of a sudden,
unexpected onset of an action which contains temporal and actional features.
When used to refer to past events, especially with adverbials sedan ‘afterwards, after
that’, senare ‘later’, i framtiden ‘afterwards’, med tiden ‘in [the course of] time’, därefter
‘after that, afterwards’ the construction has a temporal-taxis meaning of sequence.
When used with intransitive verbs it can denote inchoative aktionsart, semantically
close to the Russian combination of the verb стать ‘become’ with the infinitive; in
some contexts the temporal meaning of sequence and the actional inchoative semantics
are manifest simultaneously. Used with the verb tänka ‘think’ the construction becomes
a set phraseological unit with ingressive semantics: jag kom att tänka ‘it occurred to me,
I happened to think of the fact’.

title: ‘HUNGRVAKA’: ON THE WAY FROM THE SAGA TO THE CHRONICLE AND HAGIOGRAPHY?

dc.contributor.author

value: Gvozdetskaya, Natalya

dc.description.abstract

value:
The paper deals with some generic characteristics of Hungrvaka, a 13th c. monument
of Old Icelandic literature, which describes the lives of the first local bishops of
Iceland. The author discusses some features of composition, narration and language
which make this work close to family sagas, medieval chronicles and lives of Christian
saints — genealogies, chronology, the annalistic list of secular and Church leaders, the
bishops’ gesta, their portrait characteristics, miracles and omens. Despite the presence
of some signs of foreign genres, in general this work remains within the poetics of
family saga. The closeness to the family saga is found in genealogies and detailed description
of the family ties that bind bishops to the epoch of the settlement of Iceland.
Skalaholt, the first episcopal see in Iceland, is presented as a religious center, endowed
with sacred significance; in its description we hear echoes of mythological notions of
an ideal prototype of things. In accordance with family saga stereotypes are constructed
the ‘portrait’ characteristics of bishops which correspond to the ideal image of höfðingi,
a representative of the local nobility. It is only the portrait of Þorlákr Runólfsson (a prototype
of Þorlákr Þorhallsson, the first national saint of Iceland) that fully meets the
hagiographic canon. However, the secular behavior of the bishop may be combined in
the story with his ascetic way of life or be interpreted in a Christian spirit. The anonymous
author seeks to paint a picture of national consensus under the auspices of the
Church, pushing into the background the war as the spring of action that leads to the
generic transformation of the family saga. Death, accompanied by suffering and wonders,
clarifies the meaning of the earthly ministry of the bishop. Its description contains
predominantly hagiographical topoi, but sometimes also conveys the realistic details
of everyday life. The death of every Icelandic bishop is correlated with the death of his
contemporaries abroad, both the Church hierarchs and secular rulers. Noticeable is
also the author’s desire to draw parallels between his characters and significant figures
in world history.

title: FREDERIKA BREMER: PROTESTANTISK PILGRIM I PALESTINA ÅR 1859

dc.contributor.author

value: Bohlin, Anna

dc.description.abstract

value:
Pilgrimage Studies is a growing field of research; however, Protestant pilgrims in
the 19th century have so far received little attention. Fredrika Bremer (1801–1865),
world-famous Swedish author at the time, published an account of her five months in
the Holy Land in 1859, in the travel book Life in the Old World (1860–1862), covering
Switzerland, Italy, Turkey and Greece apart from Palestine. Throughout the narrative of
the Biblical lands, Bremer discusses the significance of pilgrimage in relation to pilgrims
of other Christian denominations. As a Protestant, she needs to ask herself in what
way the physical place, the materiality of the holy sites, carries a meaning. In applying
Charles Lock’s concept “the Protestant optic”, the analysis shows that Bremer concur
with British and American Protestant pilgrims of her time in preferring landscapes
to monuments and in complaining about the emotional expressions of devotion by
Catholic and Orthodox pilgrims. Nevertheless, she also diverges from their standing on
devotional practices. Her own critical method of making sense of holy sites results in
what I call “allegorical geography”: she understands the inner meaning of the Gospel to
be inscribed into the topography. Ultimately, in Bremer’s travel account, the pilgrimage
is motivated, I suggest, by the aesthetic impression of the landscape, the sensuous
perception that gives evidence to the truth of the Bible.

title: The Historical syntax on the modern stage of development of Linguistics

dc.contributor.author

value: Piotrovskii, Dmitry

dc.description.abstract

value:
The completeness of the language material collected by the comparative linguistics
makes possible the further step in the development of the historical syntax which is to
place the comparative studies into the system of views formed lately in the linguistics.
The modern historical syntax is to begin with the classification of languages as oral
and written. Some important language characteristics depend on the type of the text.
In the first instance it is about the main syntactical unit. An oral text presupposes
that the main syntactic unit is a period, which is determined on the base of both
structural and rhythmical characteristics. The latter depend on the situation of the text
performance and are bound with memory, breath, etc. The main unit of a written text
is a phrase, determined only structurally. But whatever the main unit of syntax would
be: a period or a phrase, its basic characteristic is the same. This is the predicativity.
It is necessary to distinguish the predicativity as an ontological phrase characteristic
from its technical realization. Ontologically the predicativity is the connection between
linguistic structures and the outer world. Technically the predicativity represents a kind
of structure. The completeness of the structure depends on the self-sufficiency of the
outer factors to make the connection between linguistic structures and the outer world
obvious. Mononuclear phrases provide the highest degree of obviousness. Whereas
such a connection is unevident it is to be guaranteed by the structure. In this case
the structure of the main syntactical unit has to be more complicated. It represents
a dependence tree with its own head. The type of the head depends on the main
syntactical unit type. For a phrase it is a verb. For a period it is a noun.

An imagological approach to contemporary Dutch poetry demonstrates what kind
of stereotypes of Central and Eastern Europe find expression in the poetry written by
immigrants from the countries of the Eastern Bloc on the one hand and by autochthonous
poets on the other hand. The first ones see the relation East ←→ West as the
dichotomy warm = cordial ←→ cold = rational, the latter see the otherness of the inhabitants
of Central and Eastern Europe in their devotion to the history and in permanent
looking back, to the past, and in two results of the long decades of communist ideology:
the inability to think freely and the economic backwardness of their countries. Most
of the verses written by autochthonous poets are devoted to historical events that had
their specific features in Eastern Europe: the two world wars and the tragedy of the
Jews, the civil war in Yugoslavia. However, for a number of Dutch poets the theme of
Eastern Europe results from free associations and has no ideological loading.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The author of the article examines forms of English borrowings in sports articles in
Latvian and Norwegian during the period 1946–2005. The present contrastive analysis
reveals similarities and differences of anglicisms as part of the Latvian and Norwegian
language vocabulary and tendencies of equivalent formation.
The collected data illustrates assimilated loans, hybrids and non-assimilated words.
The English pattern shows a tendency to be more favoured in Norwegian than Latvian.
Among non-assimilated forms we find instances of original forms with Norwegian
inflections and hybrids where one of the components is English, but the other —
Norwegian.
The attitude towards borrowing from English seems to be rather similar in both
languages though with a stronger tendency towards openness in the Norwegian
language environment throughout the whole period under research. It can be explained
with several factors, such as the language typology and language contact time scale
within the Norwegian speaking society and its English language competence. Though
now preference for English borrowings has evened out, there is still greater openness to
anglicisms in Norwegian than Latvian.

title: DANISH COMPOUND WORD, BASED ON V+N-MODEL

dc.contributor.author

value: Krasnova, Elena

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article discusses compound nouns with a verbal first component; they
represent a non-uniform group that includes composites both with the infinitive and
with the imperative verb as the first component. A semantic analysis of compounds
with an infinitive first component reveals main types of relation between the
components that can be compared with nominative models. Of most interest is a group of compounds where the first component is the result of compression of an imperative
sentence (bland selv-slik, bag selv-bryllupskage, byt til nyt-koncept, tag selv-bord).
Some of the analyzed elements were originally borrowed from English (gør det selv
from English ‘do it yourself ’), but later developed against the Danish background and
formed the basis for a variety of compounds with a modified first component (“draw it
yourself ”, “paint it yourself ”, “learn it yourself ”, “type it yourself ”, “write it yourself ”).
In compounds following this model, the first component, which originated as the
result of a sentence compaction, substantivizes, takes a qualificative function, and gives
a figurative characteristic of an object, a person, or a phenomenon specified by the
second component; thus the model repeats the most frequent in Danish N+N model.
Some of imperative composites analyzed in the article are registered in dictionaries;
however, occasional forms of this type appear in oral speech, advertisements, and
newspapers, which proves the feasibility of the model.

title: THE REAPING OF DEATH IN “THE SEVENTH seal ” BY INGMAR BERGMAN (to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the film creation)

dc.contributor.author

value: Sinitsyn, Alexander

value: Sinitsyna, Eugenia

dc.description.abstract

value:
Medieval aesthetics, mysticism, sheer symbolism and special stylistics of “The Seventh
Seal” (1956) distinguish this film from other ‘historiographical’ works made by
the Scandinavian director and thinker, Ingmar Berman (1918–2007). In spite of the
historical background of Bergman’s works, none of them can be called, without reserve,
strictly historical. According to art critics, “The Seventh Seal” has had the greatest impact
on all films about the history of the Middle Ages and culture. It is not history as
such that the Swedish director and thinker is concerned about; rather, he is interested
in existential topics, problems tormenting his heroes, their quests, their doubts and
anxieties. Here, likewise in all other ‘historiographical’ pictures made by Bergman, the
historical realities serve as a background against which the drama is being acted out.
The film has nothing to do with the so-called pre-expectant idealization of the culture
of the knightly Middle Ages. The authors of this essay discuss the symbolic nature of
Death in “The Seventh Seal”, Antonius Block’s behaviour, when he faces the Angel of
Death, and the behaviour of other characters featured in the film. For a genuine knight,
whose cause should be that of devotion, Block as a personification of doubt and search
is a ‘wrong kind’ of knight. Isolated from the world, alone to grapple with his doubts,
Block realizes that all that has happened to him is futile, meaningless, and that he must
grasp something essential to fill his spiritual void. “The Seventh Seal” is the most ‘panmortal’
picture wrought by Bergman. Death reigns supreme in the world depicted by
the Master. The ‘finale’ of the article raises the issue of the characters who, though deeply
involved, do not appear in Dödsdansen of the Epilogue.

title: The title of Ivan III according to late-medieval Danish sources

dc.contributor.author

value: Pape, Carsten

dc.description.abstract

value:
The first treaty between Denmark and Muscovy was concluded in 1493, to be followed by
further treaties in 1506 and 1516. Based on extant copies of the Danish letters of treaty and the early
correspondence between Vasiliy III and Danish King Hans, the article scrutinizes the Danish version
of Ivan III’s title (in Latin), in particular the inclusion of the term imperator (i. e. tsar) in the title. At first
glance, the use of the term seems unlikely, both in the general context of late-medieval Catholic notions of
empire, and because Ivan III did not use tsar as part of his title in communications with European sovereign
princes. As it turns out, however, he used it consistently in his diplomatic dealings (through his Novgorod
namestniki) with the less sovereign political subjects of the Baltic region, and there is reason to conclude, as
does the article, that he persuaded or forced the Danish envoy to Moscow in the summer of 1493 to include
the term in his full title ― a fact which would mean the recognition by the sovereign monarch of Denmark,
Norway and (soon-to-be) Sweden of the Muscovite Grand Prince as co-equal with the Holy Roman Emperor
in terms of rank. This was a first step on the road to general European recognition of the imperial title of the
rulers of Russia — and no mean achievement on the part of Ivan III.

value: Mikhailova, Yulia A.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Political functions of demonstrative emotional behavior have been extensively studied by Western
medievalists, but little, if at all, discussed by scholars of Rus. This article offers an analyis of representations
of emotions in Russian political narratives; it is informed by the concept of Spielregeln («rules of play»),
developed by the German historian Gerd Althoff, and by application of anthropological theories to the
medieval studies practiced by Anglophone scholars, such as Stephen White and Paul Hyams. These historians
showed that societies lacking explicit normative documents regulated political and social interaction by means
of implicit «rules of play» manifested in ritual behaviors. Public display of emotions was probably the most
prominent among such behaviors. A comparison of information derived from Russian primary sources with
the picture that emerges from scholarly literature on emotions in political narratives of the high medieval
West suggests that social functions of emotions and the ways to send a political message by means of public
emotional display were essentially the same in Rus and Latin Europe.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article is devoted to the general overview of the creative work of V. I. Lamansky an outstanding
Russian Slavonic scholar (1833–1914) and presents the introductory text to the publication of the
first part of the series of his works «Historical letters about the relations of the Russian nation to its tribesmen»
(1859). The article explicates the important details of the scientist’s biography and gives a brief analysis of
the essential content of the archive materials published for the first time. V. I. Lamansky had studied the Slavs
throughout his scientific career. However, not a series of interesting and separate special investigations typical
of modern historians and philologists but the monumental conception of the political and cultural structure
of Eurasia divided by Lamansky into three independent worlds, i. e. European (Roman and German), Middle
(Greek and Slavic) and Asian, has become the main outcome of his creative searches. Although Lamansky’s
studies were carried in the quiet of the room and were the result of the scrupulous scientific work, they were
oriented towards the understanding of the basic principles of the social life. V. I. Lamansky understood a
scientist’s work an indispensable element of social being and strived to lead it out into the spear of opinion
journalism and free intellectual life. This trait of Lamansky’s creative works is already notable in his early
series of articles named «Historical letters about the relations of the Russian nation to its tribesmen». The
very first «Letter…» reflects a number of the most important ideas of Lamansky’s theory: the unity of the
Slavs on the fundament of the unity of their languages, animosity of the Western — especially German —
culture towards the Slavs and understanding of language as an expression of the volksgeist. Moreover, it is
important to mark that in «Letter…», there is evident influence of the theories which were contemporary to
Lamansky and had appeared in Germany on the wave of the Romanticism. This fact primarily concerns the
obvious W. von Humboldt’s influence which lent the conception of language to this work. The examination
of both Lamansky’s «Letter…» and his whole creative work gives an idea about the level and character of the
Slavic studies in Russia throughout the second half of 19th century, allows to realize that deep transformation
which has happened to this science since the time when Lamansky worked and affords to understand how
its development begins in Russia.

The subject of this analysis shall be the earliest history of the medieval principality of Dioclea.
It originates from a sclavinia created at the south-eastern part of then roman province Dalmatia, where a
new province Praevalitana was formed during the reign of Diocletian (284–305). The centre of the sclavinia
consists of remains of the antic town Doclea after which the principality itself was named, while an array of
the fortified roman cities that survived the migration period is located along the shore it gravitates to. The core
of indigenous people remained in itssouthern neighbourhood, the territory which Slovenian colonisation has
touched at a lower scale and the Byzantium quickly regained its control over that area. This is the reason why
Dioclea, being the southernmost Dalmatian principality, has been the one the most exposed to the Byzantine
influence especially since the early 9th century, when Theme of Dyrrhachium was founded. Roman population
sustained its presence the longest in the mountainous areas and in agers of the Roman cities. Development of
the Slovenian principality and embracing of the culture-enhancing attainments was significantly enabled by the
symbiosis of the Slovenian and Roman population, primarily in the areas of the said agers. Dioclea also felt
the influence of the Bulgarian invasion to the hinterland of Dyrrhachium, which resulted in Dioclea’s being
imprisoned in a triangle between Byzantium, Bulgaria and Serbia. Its future political position shall depend on
the power ratio of these three countries. During the reign of Vasilije I (867–886), Byzantium has experienced
a growth severely experienced in the basin of the Adriatic Sea, so the Dalmatian Slovenians become subject
to its supreme authority. As can be concluded, over the course of 9th century, the Byzantium authority over
Dioclea was much more prominent and immediate as compared to other Dalmatian principalities.

The author analyzes problems of early modern Romanian identity in context of development
of «national locus» and «national body» concepts. The tactics and strategies of formation and promotion of
identity are analyzed. Romanian poets and intellectuals were the main formators of Romanian identity. The
author presumes that ideas of homeland, Roman-Romanian continuity, struggle against external enemies
formed the core of early Romanian identity. Secondary school system also promoted unification and rise of
serial Romanian national identity. The concepts of Romanian «national locus» and «national body» were
formed during the second half of the 19th century. The evolution of collective representations about national
body and locus has not ended by the beginning of the 20th century that assisted to radicalization of Romanian
political class and actualized war scenario of national body and locus institutionalization.

value:
The article makes a combining analysis of two types of sources which reflect the Serbian traditional
culture and history. The first is represented by ethnographic narrative observations of the second
part of the 19th – early 20th century and another one by museum artefacts of the same period. This approach
demonstrates the existence of a close connection between the ornamental embroidery, as a product of preindustrial
era home needlework, with magic belief system which prevailed in that period, in particularly with
belief in the evil eye. Placing the museum artifacts in the cultural-anthropological context provides a deeper
understanding of the nature of their origin, which in turn contributes to the articulation of their value as an
ethnomuseological heritage.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article focuses on the «German potekhi» (entertaiments), played in the Muscovite court during
the 1630s. These entertainments resembled circus performances. They were based on rope acrobatics. The
principal changes leading to a new phenomenon in the Russian court culture appeared in the turn of 1634 and
1635. From this time a small acrobatic troupe began to develop, the backbone was formed with two German
artist and five of their Russian pupils. The development of the «German entertaiments» was connected with
the youth of Tsarevich Aleksei Mikhailovich. First he looked at poteshniki (entertainers), then apprenticed
three of his nakry players to the foreign artists, dressed them together with himself, his younger brother and
the stolniks in the German comic costume. This period ended because of the tragic events in the life of the
royal family in 1639: in January died Tsarevich Ivan, five years old, and in March died newborn Tsarevich
Vasilii. To this the Empress’s health deteriorated. At the end of mourning the «German entertaiments» were
not renewed. The author concludes in pointing out the similarity of «German entertaiments» from 1630s
with the performances that were played at the court of Tsar Aleksei Mikhailovich in early 1672: no German
actors on stage were professionals; the people close to Aleksei Mikhailovich played a significant role in the
organization of the performances; the shows were based on the plastic actions that were understood without
the help of an interpreter; the Tsar and his sons was shown for the audience. These performances have become
an important preparatory step to the production of the first theatrical performance ― The Play of Artaxerxes
(Ahasuerus; Artakserksovo deistvo).

title: Emotions as an object of interpretation in the Slavic prophetic dream narratives

dc.contributor.author

value: Lazareva, Anna A.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article is devoted to the folk tradition of dream interpretation in the eastern Slavic culture.
Emotions, appearing during dreaming, are one of the objects of interpretation, for example «happiness in
dream means misfortune», or «be crying in the dream predicts happiness». Such researchers, as N. I. Tolstoy,
S. Niebzegowska and others, who studied oral dream book, paid no particular attention to the interpretation of
emotions, because their main interest was about symbolic of visual images of dreams. Drawing on fieldwork
conducted in the Poltava region, the author examines traditional patterns of interpretation emotional-laden
dreams. These narratives can be divided into two groups: 1) the dream tales in which feelings meant opposite:
«happiness in dream means misfortune», «be crying in the dream predicts happiness», 2) the narratives in
which emotions were interpreted literally (unpleasant feelings meant unpleasant events in life, for example —
the sense of shame in a dream predicted dishonor). Comparing these two groups we can make a conclusion,
that the first case is not exclusively about emotion themselves: in the first place were interpreted the actions
aimed at the expression of emotions (laugh, crying, dancing and so on). The dreams, which were interpreted
literally, had been related to the notion of disturbing dreams. The dreams causing unpleasant emotions
(anxiety, perplexity, fear, dissatisfaction, aversion) were interpreted by the respondents as a «bad dreams»,
even though the dream plot predicted something favorable according to the oral dream book and opinions of
other interlocutors (during the group interview). The negative emotions experienced in the dream influence on its interpretation, because a dreamer tends to pay attention on the «negative» images (from the traditional
point of view) and ignore «auspicious» signs.

This article is devoted to the contemporary (Published during 1989 to 2016) scholar works about

The author touch not only works of historians, but also political scientists, linguists, lawyers, ethnologists,
anthropologists and experts in the field of international relations. articles. Author found that the peak of
Kosovo myth publication activity was 1989–1990 years. The interest was decreased after 1991 and only a
relatively small number of specialists are interested in Kosovo myth now as in pre-Milohevic era. Increasing
of number publications devoted to Kosovo myth was directly related to the deterioration of the quality of
the majority of publications by attracting non-specialists for this issue: as we can see, most of the Albanian
historians and many Serbian historians «patriotic» school, weren’t professionals. They were too negligent
for the sources, deliberately neglected uncomfortable facts and replicated unscientific stereotypes, hiding behind the concept of the protection of national interests. In his article, the author resumes that sides will not

title: Bulgars and Slavs among enemies and «friends» of the Byzantine Empire in the 7th–9th cc.

dc.contributor.author

value: Polyvyannyj, Dmitry Igorevich

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article considers role and dynamics of mutual images in the communication of Bulgars and
Slavs with the Byzantine Empire and among themselves in connection with their migration across Danube,
settlement in the Balkans, formation and enlargement of the Bulgarian state in the 7th–9th cc. The Byzantines’
phobias towards Bulgars and Slav incorporated both the reminiscences of the ancient fears of enemies
and new eschatological fears. They were being overcome by real and symbolic interiorization of the outer
enemies, which in political contacts were perceived as military opponents and trouble-making neighbors,
untrustworthy allies, friends by status or insubordinate subjects. Their transfer from the world of images to
the world of politics obviously did not make the Rhomeoi’s relationships with the «inner barbarians» free
from the impact of traditional images and their remnants, which in the case of the Bulgars and integrated into
their state Slavs kept on existing after their conversion to Christianity. In their turn, the relations between the
Bulgars and Slavs, on the one side, and Byzantium on the other, were determined not only by political and
militaly challenges, but with their acculturation into the symbolic space of the Christian Empire conjugated
with their attitudes to the statuses and nominations offered by Constantinople. The Bulgar-Slav relations and
their symbolic expressions were shaped during their cooperation, which had begun long before the arrival
of Asparuch to the Balkans, and in the course of the competition of the Bulgarian state with Byzantium for
Balkan Slavinias. Nevertheless, the reminiscences of the ancient ethnic phobias in the mediaeval Byzantine
and Slavonic texts existed more as literary fashion than as reflections of the current social and political
realities.

title: The Biography of Samoilo Velychko, the Author of the Famous Cossack’s Chronicle

dc.description.abstract

value:
In this article our imaginary and true knowledge of the biography of the author of the well-known
Cossack chronicle Samoilo Velichko are investigated. On the basis of the analysis of a historiography the
history of emergence of myths, and also the most famous versions of the biography of Velichko is shown. For
example, we study the circumstances of the termination of his service in General office of Zaporizhian Army.
The author introduces new archival documents from the Russian governmental archive of ancient arts and
from the archive of the Institute of History of Russian Academy of Art in St. Petersburg and represents own
interpretations of various facts. As a result, we obtain more exact data on study, a social origin, marital status,
and also the «misfortune» which has happened to Velichko and put an end to his career of the army bureaucrat.
Contrary to the most popular opinion in the historiography it is now possible to take for granted that Velichko
didn’t lose his position after V. Kochubey’s disgrace, but remained on service up to his capture in December,
1708. And moreover, he was in army of the hetman I. Mazepa after he joint Swedes. The detailed analysis
of the military company of November–December, 1708 allow to make the assumption of circumstances of
«misfortune» which happened to S. Velichko. Most likely, he was taken prisoner in Romnakh, during the
urgent departure of I. Mazepa’s troops from there. Besides, the revealed documents confirm availability of
close ties of Velichko with Zaporizhian Host and in particular with the Host’s clerk G. Bovguley. And it is
only the myth that S. Velichko taught V. Kochubey’s children.

value: The purpose of the paper is to explore the internationalisation of family firms in the manufacturing sector of the Bulgarian economy, answering the questions: why and how these firms internationalise. A qualitative approach was adopted for the study and data were collected via face-to-face interviews with the owner-managers of family firms. The derived information was coded so that the case firms would be analysed using the same approaches. Research findings show that the early internationalisation of the case firms makes them fall into the category of born globals. The main reasons for the early internationalisation of the studied firms were found to be rooted mostly in the protective behaviour of their owners-managers, their personal characteristics and contacts, the specificity of the transitional context and the market limitations among others. This study is pioneering in transition contexts and is expected to be useful for academics, practicians and policy decision-makers.

dc.description.abstract

value: The purpose of this paper is to explore the relation between career choice and generational differences in order to understand the professional nature for various age groups. It also offers suggestions for how to estimate career choice using career anchors developed by E. Schein, and level of self-monitoring developed by M. Snyder. The paper reviews the literature on career anchors, self-monitoring and the theory of generation. It also considers their roles for career choice. Our analysis was conducted using two samples; 1) undergraduates studying Management for a second academic year; 2) employees working in two Russian companies. All participants were divided into age groups in line with the theory of generations. Career Orientation Inventory developed by Schein and Self-Monitoring Scale developed by Snyder were used to evaluate the career choice. The study applies factor analysis that separates the leading career anchors for each age group. The findings illustrate differences in attitudes towards career choice across generations. Generation Y both employees and undergraduates demonstrates high self-monitoring and role expectations as the key professional activities. Generation X displays preferences to managerial commitment and independence. Baby Boomers is the only one generation that demonstrates technical/functional competence as a core career anchor. Generation Y both employees and undergraduates, show more similarities than differences in self-monitoring and career orientations thereby proving particular postulates of the generation theory. The research limitations relate to the boundaries of quantitative method. The sample of 240 participants cannot be representative for the whole Russian population. The limited quantity of the research, focusing on differences in career choice across generations in Russia, outlines the importance of future investigations. These findings could become a base for the next studies in this field. Practical implications of these findings are to add potentially major insight into the organizations for selection and training the staff by taking into account career needs of employees relating to their age (generation). Company career management practices should accommodate the differences in career orientations and conform to the organizational needs. The value of the findings is to provide extra opportunities for HR experts in the development of effective career management programme taking into consideration individual characteristics of personnel.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article is devoted to the economic substance of one of the most important economic categories — goodwill as a pricing factor on the capital market and the formation of ideas about the economic potential of the business entity. Goodwill as a subject for discussion is considered the most actively by experts in the field of accounting. However, this category is not a pure subject of accounting only; therefore, adequate perception of this category is of interest to a wide circle of business participants. The authors briefly reviewed the history of the emergence of this category in the economic and legislative environment of business activity and demonstrated in historical perspective the main discussion on its interpretation, evaluation and reflection in the information environment. The article shows that the treatment of goodwill as an intangible asset is highly conditional. There was a certain inherent inconsistency of development of Russian scientists direct borrowing valuation models and algorithms in the financial analytics. The authors explain the reasons of occurrence of erroneous definitions and goodwill estimation algorithms given in the domestic scientific, educational, and normative literature. Examples demonstrating the importance of this category in the market economy are presented as well. The authors explain the logic of goodwill evaluation and the practice of corresponding counting algorithms.
The main part of the article provides a brief review of four key topics that reveal the essence of goodwill, respectively, of its typology, logic and pricing options, and finally presenting the specifics of its reflection in financial reporting.

The problem of information reliability securing occurs when making international comparison, and it becomes a particularly pressing one when several sources are used. The official data on foreign trade results in a country nearly always contain discrepancies complicating the macroeconomic analysis. It is traditionally considered that import data are more reliable than the export data; however, there are no any more accurate methods for discrepancies assessment. The article presents a statistical method of comprehensive comparative analysis of foreign trade results based on two sources of information, aimed to assess existing digressions and to detect any patterns in change of their values. The method is based on mirror statistics for export and import commodity structures and is tested using the information on foreign trade in Russia and Norway. To exclude any infl uence of errors conditioned by specific correlation in characteristics of these countries’ customs accounting, only the official data from Norwegian sources, presented in different classification systems, were used.

Recent research reveals accounting for sustainable development to be both problematic and essential. This paper considers that the problems arising may be intrinsic to the concepts and structures of Modern accounting and that their resolution lies ultimately in the development of the consequences of a new possibility of knowledge or episteme. After a brief presentation of the nature and historic impacts of episteme change, this paper explores the epistemic origins of Modern accounting. Evidence for a new, other than Modern, episteme is then presented and its consequences for accounting for sustainable accounting are explored. Significant evidence in this regard is the work of Bruno Latour from Actor-Network Theory to the plurality of ontologies.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Now there is a common practice in many Russian and foreign companies to include in asset pricing models a premium for small capitalization (size premium). As a rule, companies employing this approach (including Russian companies) use premiums of such reports as Ibbotson SBBI Classic Yearbook or Duff & Phelps Risk Premium Report. However, the information (size premiums) presented in these reports is prepared on the basis of the U. S. capital market, and, respectively, it is necessary to adjust this data when the cost of equity is evaluated for companies operating in other capital markets.
In addition, published studies devoted to the study of size effect, in both developed and emerging capital markets, oft en have opposing conclusions about the presence of this effect and its magnitude. For this reason we have questions about the validity of the calculated cost of equity using the size premium.
The article presents the results of the study of the size premium and cost of equity conducted in the laboratory of the Corporate Finance Center (NRU HSE) in conjunction with PwC. Based on the dataset including stock returns of 101 non-financial companies listed on the Moscow Interbank Currency Exchange and covering the period from 2006 to 2014, we observed that the size premium is typical for Russian medium-sized companies. At the same time, the size premium for small companies was negative. The results obtained in this study have a practical value for management of Russian companies and funds.

The world practice shows for a long time that creation of own venture funds became one of methods of increase of efficiency of innovative activity of the companies. The Russian companies is doing only the first steps in this direction. The article explains that such actions require prior formation in the company of the appropriate innovation culture. Creation of corporate fund will be justified when internal prerequisites are for this purpose created, and long-term innovative strategy is accepted. It was determined that the most appropriate form of the fund is an investment partnership. It is desirable to include in structure of managing company both own, and invited experts. The advantage of invited experts consist in their professional competencies for the implementation of activities associated with investments and asset management. There was a need to address a number of issues requiring legal settlement (the definition of a corporate venture fund, the need to ensure the right of fund manager to make a mistake when making investment decisions, and others). Attention is paid to the specifics of firms which already create funds: in the capital of most of them there are significant share of state participation. In case of failure of investment it can lead to serious problems for managing company.

value:
The article notes the increasing influence of uncertainty and risk factors on the economic development in modern conditions. Some opportunities to consider this impact are connected with the use of stochastic models for economic growth. The authors study the methods of forecasting the economic development based on a discrete stochastic approximation for the constraints of the economic growth model using the Euler-Maruyama method. The proposed approach permits constructing the mean calculated economic growth trajectory starting from the current (initial) state. The method implementation in the simulation mode is presented with regard to the turning point induced by the 2008 global economic crisis. Special attention is drawn to the characteristic features of the proposed method and the problem of the economic growth stochastic model calibration. The calculations of GDP and consumption expenditure trajectories are performed according to the data for Greece, Denmark, and Spain in two time periods — before and aft er the 2008 crisis. The sets of model parameters are found that provide the compliance of the actual trajectories with 50% confidence intervals of calculated values of the macroeconomic indicators under consideration. It is shown that the use of the baseline data defined in fixed 1970 prices for the forecast calculations can increase the compliance.

dc.description.abstract

value: The article aims to develop a conceptual model that integrates main research findings on consumer perception of marketing persuasion and unfolds its content, antecedents, and behavioral consequences. To handle the purpose, the author reviews the related studies published in 1994–2015. The systematic literature review shows that consumer perception of marketing persuasion consists of several perceptual operations, such as recognition, causal interpretation and evaluation of a persuasion attempt. The result of the above operations is a perceptual (mental) image determined by consumer, marketing, and situational factors. Depending on the perceptual image of marketing persuasion formed in the consumer mind, consumers can adopt a variety of tactics to resist persuasion such as counterarguments, discrediting a firm, withdrawal from relationships with a firm, requests to consumer organizations, and market skepticism. The study contributes to marketing persuasion literature by combining conceptual theorizations articulated in the seminal article by Friestad and Wright with empirical evidence appeared afterwards. Thus the theory is enriched and clarifi ed. Firstly, it sheds light upon how different aspects of phenomenon are addressed in the extant studies, and shows how the studies are connected. Secondly, the paper clarifies the content of consumer perception and delineates different perceptual operations. Ultimately, the antecedents and consequences of consumer perception of marketing persuasion are systematized in the article. Considering the fact that consumer perception of marketing persuasion affects consumer response to marketing persuasion attempts, it is reasonable for firms to consider this process before undertaking any marketing action aimed at consumers.

dc.description.abstract

value: The literature repeatedly stresses the role of knowledge intensive business services (KIBS) as a provider of knowledge and information to other businesses and organizations. Thus, KIBS are increasingly considered to be the key for regional development at the age of knowledge economy. Nevertheless, few existing studies are dealing with questions of the KIBS sector extension in Russia using micro firm data. This paper presents an analysis of the spatial distribution of KIBS across Russian regions and focuses on the factors determining market extension of KIBS. The study is founded on the unique empirical base derived from the results of mass surveys of more than 650 Russian suppliers of KIBS. Comparative analysis of central and peripheral groups of regions was also conducted. At the first step of investigation it is detected, that Russian KIBS companies are characterized by high concentration in large urban areas due to the presence of more developed infrastructure, higher human capital development, proximity to the large customer, etc. However, companies in the KIBS sector have the potential for development (new knowledge, experience) in collaboration with agents located in other regions. It is established that index of interregional interaction intensity is higher for KIBS producers from peripheral regions. At the next stage of this research six variables were considered: size, experience, service standardization, quality of personnel, personnel costs for a company, and spatial proximity. Our results confirm that four of these variables, but not quality of personnel and personnel costs for a company, correlate with the market extension of KIBS in Russia. It is recognized that spatial proximity is an important factor for both central and peripheral suppliers of KIBS. This paper may be of interest to researchers focusing on the spatial distribution of the elements pertinent to the knowledge economy in Russia. It is also relevant for regional authorities, because it can help them to assess the innovative development capacity of their regions.

The article addresses the issue of risks to be in informal employment in Russia. To estimate them regression analysis was run on the Russian Longitudinal Monitoring Survey (RLMS-HSE) micro-data on individuals. Periods of 2009 and 2014 were taken for reference as periods when the economic crisis reached its peak in the labour market in Russia and a new financial and economic instability unfolding began respectively. The results obtained show the risks of being in informal employment to be distributed unevenly among the employed individuals. In addition, a systematic (stable) differences between the groups of informally and formally employed were found. It was also proved that an individual’s decision on informal employment is not always voluntary but on the contrary appears to be forced in many cases. The concluding remarks in the article address policy makers and highlight a need to take into account heterogeneity of the groups of informally employed when pursuing a policy.

This paper addresses the question of existence of relationships between usage of contemporary
marketing practices and profitability for companies operating on the Russian market. To address
this issue, we utilize a machine learning method that so far was barely present in marketing and
management science. The paper is not only promoting a novel research method, it also establishes
the relationships between profitability and specific sets of marketing practices. We show that the
companies having negative profitability make use of a wide spectrum of marketing practices (with
an exception of interactive marketing) and they do not prioritize any specific types of practices.
In contrary, profitable companies intensively use interactive marketing and also combine it with
IT-marketing and network marketing. This shows that successful companies focus on relationship
marketing in a variety of its forms.

dc.description.abstract

value:
During the last three decades a mathematical theory of dynamical systems, chaos, and
bifurcations has been actively developed and used for the consideration of various fundamental
problems and applications. The attempts of using this theory for the study of economic,
social, and historical processes were made by the well-known specialists in dynamics of natural
sciences and specialists in various social sciences. Such concepts as controlled chaos, dynamical
history, and synergetics emerged and have been spread widely. The main difficulty in the
mathematical modeling of social historical processes is to construct a suitable mathematical
model. Therefore, in recent years there has arisen the trend to give up the idea of constructing
complete mathematical models and to use instead basic concepts and common approaches of
mathematical theory of dynamical systems for socio-economic, historical or political process.
In this paper an approach to modeling the Tunisian social system in the period of 2011 to
2014 is considered and revolution, bifurcation, and controlled stabilization are discussed. Using
statistical analysis of socio-economic indicators of Tunisia there two bifurcation parameters are selected which have influenced the stability of the socio-economic system of Tunisia. Based on
this analysis recommendations for the socio-economic systems of Tunisia and Russia are offered.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The problem of rational interpolant construction is treated as
r(x) = p(x)/q(x), {r(xj) = yj}Nj
=1, {xj, yj}Nj
=1
⊂ 􀀀, {p(x), q(x)} ⊂ 􀀀[x] .
At the basis of one result by C. Jacobi, the interpolant is represented as a ratio of two
Hankel polynomials, i. e. polynomials of the form HK(x) = det[ci+j−1 − ci+j−2x]K
i,j=1. The
generating sequence for these polynomials is selected as {
 N
j=1 xkj
yj/W (xj )}k∈􀀀 for q(x) and
as {
 N
j=1 xkj
/(yjW (xj ))}k∈􀀀 for polynomial p(x); here W(x) =
 N
j=1(x−xj). The conditions for the solubility of the problem and irreducibility of the obtained fraction are also presented.
In addition to formal representation of the solution in determinantal form, the present paper is
focused also at the effective computational algorithm for the Hankel polynomials. It is based on
a little known identity by Jacobi and Joachimsthal connecting a triple of the Hankel polynomials
of successive orders:
αHK(x) − (x + β)HK−1(x) + 1/αHK−2(x) ≡ 0 ,
here {α, β} ⊂ 􀀀 are some constants. The proof of this relation is also contained in the paper
along with discussion of a degenerate case α = 0. With these results, a procedure for the
Hankel polynomial computation can be developed which is recursive in its order. This gives an
opportunity not only to compute a single interpolant with specialized degrees for p(x) and q(x)
but also to compose the whole set of interpolants for an arbitrary combination for the degrees:
deg p+deg q   N − 1. The results of the paper can be applied for problems of Approximation
Theory, Control Theory (transfer function reconstruction from frequency responses) and for
error-correcting coding (Berlekamp—Welch algorithm). Although the presented results are
formulated for the case of infinite fields, they are applicable for finite fields as well. Refs 12.

Phase transformation of natural zeolite under hydrothermal treatment is examined in this paper.
Based on the data of IR-spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, elements analysis methods and electron
microscope studies, we have shown that the hydrothermal treatment of the natural zeolite is
substantially converted into other important minerals of the zeolite group. One of the most important
objectives of the study of zeolite crystallization processes is the creation of materials with
predetermined structure and composition. Crystallization of zeolites with the specified composition
and structure directly depends on the nature and state of the starting materials. In the construction of a hypothetical zeolite framework with a view to their subsequent synthesis, you
must take into account the size of the cations hydration shell, the amount and the possibility of
their location in skeletal cavities. Flow conversion processes according to the processing conditions
(temperature, time, concentration) and the mineralizer were traced. Chemical modification
of natural mordenite is accompanied by the formation of not only individual zeolites but also
aluminosilicate minerals, and processing in the presence of the mineralizer is not accompanied
by the formation of intermediate phases. The regions of stability of minerals under differing hydrothermal
processing regimes was determined, allowing the synthesization of minerals with the
desired characteristics. Refs 11. Figs 4. Tables 3.

Magnetic fluid is a promising material for wide application, which is constrained by the extremely
high cost, as the magnetite — its basis is synthesized from the reactive raw materials. Search of
cheaper sources for magnetite will extend its use for cleaning water and soil from oil petroleum
product, separation of materials by density, reduction of vibratory activity of machines and a
number of other areas. Studies have shown that the basis for the production of magnetite can be
galvanostat resulting from electrocoagulation cleaning of wash wastewater after common operations
of chrome plating. The simultaneous presence of ions of chromium and iron provides the
flow of redox processes at temperature influence leading to the emergency of ions of three — and
bivalent iron, necessary for the synthesis of magnetite (Fe2O3 · FeO). The results of X-ray and
magnetometry studies of galvanic sludge decrepitation up to the 1000°C is shown in this article.
It is shown that decrepitation of galvanic at the temperature 400°C and more leads to rise of
iron containing in galvanic sludge and as a result grain formation of magnetic oxide of iron. The
process is accompanied by the growth of magnetirability saturation of samples. The received
material can be used for synthesis of magnetic fluid. Refs 6. Figs 4. Tables 1.

In the “Naive Mythology” of Dutch people is their own nation — a collective
image of the name Jan, presented in the language in the form of 74-combinations and
expressions to a greater or lesser extent, have fallen into the category of common nouns.
Analysis of distributive restriction of Dutch proper name Jan , who became a common
name and is used as an endonymmade it possible to identify structure-forming elements of Dutch culture, as well as to trace the evolution of some of them in the
process of historical development. It found out that the reporting endonym contains
two nuclear semes: “regular guy”, “mean level”. All other combinations are formed
mainly on the model of Jan + fictitious surname. From the point of view of semantics
model “above the norm” does not appear in the Dutch language, which is explained
by the desire of a Dutchman to be “one of the all”; “below normal level” model shows
a wide variety of variations in the value of “simpleton”. Analysis of the combination of
a proper name Jan will demonstrate the linguistic structure-tightness values of Dutch
culture, such as the pursuit of equality and equity, moderation in all things, the lack of
authority and heroes, the ability to take care of yourself in any situation. The presence
of such rich material expressions with one key lexeme shows that such “key concepts”
have a remarkable property attract to each other, and often appear in the texts beside
each other.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The word ‘translation’ seems here and there to suffer from a bad reputation. Indeed, it is often replaced
by or competes with other terms which can in turn vary widely according to the particular sector of
activity in which they are used. The emergence of these diverse labels is cause for contemplation. They
reflect diversified professional realities and practices as well as distinct paths of research.
On the basis of this realization, we propose to focus on multimodal areas that exemplify the
different metamorphoses of ‘translation’. 1. Multilingual translation or ‘localization’ affects software programs and applications, Web sites,
video games.
2. Translation ‘going digital’ has impacts on the practices and perception of the work. Continued
use of computer-assisted translation and machine translation technologies does not only challenge the
more traditional economic model but also, and in particular due to crowdsourcing, transforms the
usual denial of translation (and invisibility of the translator) into a desire to translate.
3. Audiovisual translation (AVT) or ‘versioning’: This increasingly popular form of translation
underscores the complexity of the multimodal translation being performed (taking into account
different types of signs — visual, linguistic, audio) as well as the effects of technologies on the diversity
of the AVT. AVT modalities are now multifarious, and the kinds of publics having access to the AVT
products are as well.
4. Translation in written media: From press agencies to live editorial newsrooms, the news is
continuously being filtered through languages. Journalists cannot help but ‘trans-edit’ the news.
Translation Studies is a poly-discipline that is necessarily open to other disciplines and methods of
research. It bears witness to the rapid metamorphoses of ways to communicate as the world continues
to globalize. These communication changes are noticeable in daily, routine professional workflows, but
also in the approaches the discipline is developing in order to better grasp the significance and depth
of transformation. Refs 50. Table 1.

The completion of several fundamental international projects focused on understanding the functioning

creation of new directions in the development of biotechnology and the biopharmaceutical industry.
The rapid emergence of novel high-tech drugs, the needs of potential employers and the demands of
the labour-market have clearly demonstrated that the introduction of new approaches in pharmaceutical
and biotechnology practice requires broad reforms not only in the field of biopharmaceutical
production, but also in the areas of healthcare and education. These reforms should resolve problems
regarding the training of universal specialists who have both fundamental scientific education and
professional competences. In other words, it is necessary for such professionals to have an accurate
algorithm of actions in customary practice and scientifi c activities. Such reforms require one to significantly reexamine revisions of the Higher Education programs in the modern practice of medical

The purpose of this article is to present the analysis of main research directions on strategic
entrepreneurship (SE) published in international peer-reviewed journals on management and
entrepreneurship in 2001–2016. In order to achieve the purpose, a systematic literature review
was conducted. The analysis of 70 publications identified main approaches to strategic entrepreneurship definition, the stages of development, main research directions and suggested possible
themes for future studies. There were identified three approaches to the study of strategic entrepreneurship: 1) antecedents of strategic entrepreneurship; 2) impact of SE on firm’s performance;
and 3) three-way interaction of antecedents of SE and fi rm’s performance. The mentioned areas
of research were evaluated from the perspective of resource-based view which assumes that the
competitive advantage and value creation depend on the resources that are created or acquired
by a company to implement its strategy, and strategic fit concept that implies a need to align a
company strategy with the conditions of external environment. A possible direction for future
research in this fieeld is the use of configurational approach to the study of strategic entrepreneurship in order to understand which combination of entrepreneurial and strategic action enables
strategic entrepreneurship to be beneficial for the company.

dc.description.abstract

value: A theoretical model of transport properties in electronically excited atomic gases in the state-to-state approach is developed. Different models for the collision diameters of atoms in excited states are discussed, and it is shown that the Slater-like models can be applied for the state-resolved transport coefficient calculations. The influence of collision diameters of N and O atoms with electronic degrees of freedom on the transport properties is evaluated. Different distributions on the electronic energy are considered for the calculation of transport coefficients. For the Boltzmann-like distributions at temperatures greater than 15000 K, an important effect of electronic excitation on the thermal conductivity and viscosity coefficients is found; the coefficients decrease significantly when many electronic states are taken into account. It is shown that under hypersonic reentry conditions the impact of collision diameters on the transport properties is not really important since the populations of high levels behind the shock waves are low.

title: Effect of electronic excitation on high-temperature flows of ionized nitrogen and oxygen mixtures behind strong shock waves

dc.description.abstract

value: Strongly non-equilibrium flows of reacting five-component ionized mixtures of nitrogen (N2/N+2 /N/N+/e−) and oxygen (O2/O+2 /O/O+/e−) behind the plane shock wave are studied taking into account electronic degrees of freedom of both neutral and ionized species. The kinetic scheme includes non-equilibrium reactions of ionization, dissociation, recombination and chargetransfer. Two test cases corresponding to the spacecraft re-entry (Hermes and Fire II experiments) are considered; fluid-dynamic variables, transport coefficients and heat flux are calculated, and different contribution to the heat flux are analyzed. The effect of electronic excitation on the heat transfer is governed by the competition of diffusion and heat conduction; it becomes weak if diffusive processes prevail. An important role of thermal diffusion in ionized flows is emphasized. The influence of dissociation rates on the heat flux is assessed.
