The Change of Fast Reactivity Effects in the Operation of the IBR-2 Pulsed Reactor

The investigation of the dependence of main fast reactivity effects of the IBR-2 pulsed reactor, i.e. isothermal effect, flow effect and effect of fast power feedback, on the energy production has been carried out. It has been shown that the main fluctuations of reactivity are correlated with the random change of the temperature of sodium. The absolute isothermal coefficient of reactivity weakly increases with the power production (by 20% during the whole operation time of the reactor). The fast power reactivity coefficient has decreased practically by a factor of 6 from -12bp/MW (in 1982, the start-up of the reactor) to -2bp/MW (in 2006, the stop of operation) and has a complicated dependence on the energy production. It has been shown that the flow fluctuation of coolant sodium through the core is small and influences weakly the random change of reactivity. The total sodium flow effect does not practically change with the power production.

Fitter. The Package for Fitting a Chosen Theoretical Multi-Parameter Function through a Set of Data Points. Application to Experimental Data of the YuMO Spectrometer. Version 2.1.0. Long Write-Up and User's Guide

Fitter is a C++ program aimed to fit a chosen theoretical multi-parameter function through a set of data points. The method of fitting is chi-square minimization. Moreover, the robust fitting method can be applied to Fitter. Fitter was disigned to be used for a small-angle neutron scattering data analysis. Respective theoretical models are implemented in it. Some common used models (Gaussian and polynomials) are also implemented for wider applicability.

Track Reconstruction in the CBM TRD

A description, results and the current status of the track-finding routines developed for the Transition Radiation Detector (TRD) of the CBM experiment are presented. The track-finding algorithm is based on the Kalman Filter and track following methods. Two different approaches have been used: a stand-alone TRD track finder (using only TRD information) and an algorithm based on the information from tracks found in preceding detectors. Performances of the algorithms are presented. A detector layout study has been performed in order to optimize the detector set-up while keeping high reconstruction efficiency.

Identification of Metal Emissions from Adjacent Point Sources in Northern Norway Using Moss Biomonitoring and Factor Analysis

Atmospheric deposition of 34 trace metals around an iron-smelter complex in a town in Northern Norway was studied in 2000 and 2005 using neutron activation analysis of naturally growing moss. Specific contributions from two adjacent but distinct smelters and changes in operation that had occurred between the two sampling years were identified by factor analysis, and relative contributions from the two sources at different sampling sites were demonstrated by means of the factor scores. In 2000, emission from a ferroalloy smelter (Smelter I) caused substantial deposition of Cr and Fe, and this smelter was also the main source of Al, V, Co, Ni, As, Mo, and W. Another nearby plant (Smelter II) recovering metals from used materials caused considerable deposition of Mn and Zn and was also the main source of Sb and W deposition. Following a transition from ferrochrome to ferromanganese production, Smelter I in 2005 showed substantial deposition of Mn. This smelter was also still the main source of Cr, Co, Ni, As, and Mo. Smelter II maintained a considerable Zn deposition and showed increased emissions of Sb and W. In most of the urban area the contribution from Smelter~I~was dominant. An exception was two sites in the north-east direction from the industries, where emissions from Smelter II dominated in 2000 as well as in 2005.

Investigation of U(VI) Sorption by Soil from the Region of Repository for Radioactive Waste

The uranium (VI) sorption onto soil from the region of repository for radioactive waste was investigated. The experiments were carried out with the 237U radioactive nuclide, which was produced in the photonuclear reaction 237U(, n)237U at an electron accelerator, the MT-25 microtron of the FLNR, JINR. The forms of the U(VI) state in the solution for various uranium concentrations in the range pH 1-7 were calculated using the programme "Speciation".

Top-Quark Mass Measurement in the 2.1 fb-1 Tight Lepton and Isolated Track Sample Using Neutrino f Weighting Method

We report on a measurement of the top quark mass in the tight lepton and isolated track sample using the neutrino f weighting method. After applying the selection cuts for the data sample with the integrated luminosity of 2.1 fb-1 236 events were obtained. These events were reconstructed according to the t hypothesis and fitted as a superposition of signal and combined background. For the expected number of background 105.8 ± 12.9 wemeasure thetop quarkmass to be Mtop = 167.7 ± 4.24.0 (stat.) ± 3.1(syst.) GeV/c2.

Development of Pharmaceutical Substances Based on Blue-Green Alga Spirulina ðlatensis

A blue-green alga S. platensis biomass is used as a basis for the development of pharmaceutical substances containing such vitally important trace elements as selenium, chromium and iodine. Using neutron activation analysis the possibility of target-oriented introduction of these elements into the S. platensis biocomplexes retaining its protein composition and natural beneficial properties has been proved. The curves of the dependence of the introduced element accumulation in the Spirulina biomass on its concentration in a nutrient medium, which make it possible to accurately measure out the required doses of the specified element in a substance, have been obtained. The peculiarities of interaction of various chromium forms (Cr(III) and Cr(VI)) with the S. platensis biomass have been studied. It has been found that from a nutrient medium its cells mainly accumulate the vitally essential form of Cr(III) rather than toxic Cr(VI). Using the EPR technique and colorimetry, it has been demonstrated that the S. platensis substance enriched with Cr(III) is free from other toxic chromium forms. The developed technique can be used in pharmaceutical industry for the production of preparations containing Se, Cr, I, etc. on the basis of S. platensis biomass with the preservation of its natural beneficial properties and protein composition.

Fine Structure of Strength Function for +/EC Decay of 160gHo (25.6 min)

A strength function for the +/EC decay of the deformed 160gHo (25.6 min) nucleus has been obtained from the experimental data. The fine structure of the strength function S(E) is analyzed. It is found to have a pronounced resonant structure for Gamow-Teller transitions. In S(E) with = +1 the Gamow-Teller resonance is observed to split into two components. This splitting is associated with anisotropy of isovector density oscillation in deformed nuclei. The +/EC strength function for first-forbidden transitions is obtained in the Coulomb () approximation. It is shown that S(E) for first-forbidden transitions does not have a pronounced resonant structure.

The Spin Resonance Strength Calculation at the COSY Accelerator

Papers [1,2] study the effect of an rf-dipole on spin motion at the COSY accelerator (Jülich, Germany). A difference between a theoretically calculated value of spin resonance strength for a deuteron beam and an experimentally obtained value was found [2]. This paper shows that the difference between the experimental data and the theoretical calculation of the strength of a spin resonance, induced by modulated radial magnetic fields, can be explained by using the spin response function.

Recursive Operations for Generating Vertices of Integer Partition Polytopes

Following the polyhedral approach to integer partitions, we look at the set of partitions of any integer as a polytope (convex bounded polyhedron). So, all partitions of a given number are completely defined by the vertices of this polytope as their convex combinations. In this work, we introduce two combinatorial operations on partitions and show that with their help all vertices of any integer partition polytope can be recursively generated from a considerably smaller subset of its support vertices.

A Variant of the Proton Accelerator with a Divided Magnet for the Medico-Technical Complex of the LNP, JINR

A variant of the proton accelerator with a divided magnet for the Medico-Technical Complex of LNP, JINR, is proposed and considered, which, in comparison with the initial variant [1], allows one to exclude from the general layout of the accelerator eight constant magnets for consistency of declined trajectories with trajectories of proton beams in magnetic mirrors, reduce by half the number of the used magnetic quadrupole lenses and therefore simplify the construction of the whole accelerator. Besides, elimination of side defocusing in the vertical plane due to declined trajectories in the new accelerator variant will result in a substantial rising of the accelerator acceptance in the vertical plane and decreasing of the requirements on precision of tune focusing of magnetic quadrupole lenses in that plane.

New Proposals for the External Injection into the JINR Phasotron and Broadening of Its Application Possibilities

New methods of external injection into the JINR Phasotron are proposed and considered. The basic feature of the third method consists in using the H--ions beam for acceleration up to the energy 16 MeV in the U-115T isochronous cyclotron with a beam intensity up to 500 A, developed and created at the Department of New Accelerators, and the compact (about 1 m in diameter) storage ring for H--ions, designed for the same energy and rigidity of the magnetic focusing, providing retention up to 4 1012 H--ions during 3.5 ms. In the fourth method the annular zone inside the Phasotron chamber is proposed to be used as a storage ring. Fast, one-turn extraction of the proton beam with an intensity increased by an order of magnitude from the JINR Phasotron chamber on the basis of the impulsive magnetic deflector and supplementary ferrous magnetic channel is considered. Possible fields of application of the extracted proton beam with a duration of the impulse of ~ 10 ns and frequency reccurrence 250 Hz are outlined, in particular, creation at the JINR of a pulsed neutron source of a superhigh resolution.

Organization of Remote Control of Spectrometers at the IBR-2M Reactor

The development of network infrastructure in Dubna creates conditions for the remote supervision/control of experiment at the IBR-2M reactor beyond the JINR local network. The opportunity of observing an experiment from outside makes it possible to respond to errors or unforeseen situations, to save the reactor time. The principles of organization and peculiarities of implementation of the WebSonix system consisting of the central web-site and communication facilities for spectrometers are considered in the paper. The system allows one to reflect the actual condition of all the components of the instrument, survey log files, visualize the accumulated spectra and to control the experimental procedure on the instruments controlled by the software complex Sonix+ (OS Windows XP). The system is an independent instrument, it is easy to extend or change and easy to adapt to the instrument data specifics. The system is implemented using the PHP and Python scripts. The OS GNU/Linux Debian and web-server Apache 2 are installed on the web-site computer.

Åvaluation of Elemental Content in Airborne Particulate Matter in Low-Level Atmosphere of Bratislava

A one-year study on total airborne particulate matter has been undertaken in the framework of air pollution project in Bratislava. Sixteen filter samples were collected in 2004 in order to evaluate the level of pollution and assess the potential environmental hazards in Bratislava. As a result of two irradiations with neutrons and four gamma-spectrometric measurements the concentrations of 30 chemical elements (Na , Al, Cl, K, Ca, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ga, As, Se, Br, Rb, In, Sb, I, Cs, Ba, La, Sm, Dy, Tm, W, Au, Hg, Th, U) were determined using instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA). Additionally, the concentrations of other 6 elements (Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb) were measured by atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). The comparison with other European cities was carried out. Crustal enrichment factors were calculated in order to distinguish the possible sources of airborne particulate matter. For some elements elevated concentrations were observed for the summer months. The other concentrations were relatively stable over the year.

Application of Digital Signal-Processing Technique to Delayed-Neutron Yield Measurements on Thermal-Neutron Induced Fission of 237Np

The measurement procedure based on the continuous thermal-neutron beam modulation with a mechanical chopper was developed for delayed-neutron yield measurement of the thermal-neutron induced fission of 237Np. The idea of the procedure is similar to that which is widely used in modern communications for the nonauthorized data access prevention. The data is modulated with predefined pattern before transmission to the public network and only the recipient that has the modulation pattern is able to demodulate it upon reception. For the thermal-neutron induced reaction applications, the thermal-neutron beam modulation pattern was used to demodulate the measured delayed-neutron intensity signals on the detector output resulting in nonzero output only for the detector signals correlated with the beam modulation pattern. A comparison of the method with the conventional measurement procedure was provided, and it was demonstrated that the cross-correlation procedure has special features making it superior over the conventional one when the measured value difference from the background is extremely small. Due to strong sensitivity of measurement procedure on the modulation pattern of the neutron beam, one can implement the modulation pattern of specific shape to separate the effect of the thermal part of the beam from the higher energy one in the most confident way in a particular experiment.

The Program of Polarization Studies and Methods to Accelerate the Polarized Beams of Protons and Light Nuclei at JINR Nuclotron

The program of polarization studies is represented. This program can considerably move our knowledge how spin of hadrons and most light nuclei is constructed from spins of constituents. The polarized beams of light nuclei at Nuclotron are necessary for realization of the program. The linear spin resonance strengths at Nuclotron which can lead to the effects of depolarization are calculated. The application of the new method to preserve the beam polarization at spin resonance crossing at JINR Nuclotron is discussed.

The Separator of the Mono-Energy Electrons

The separator of the mono-energy electrons employing two types of the mini-orange form magnetic filters assemblies (by 6 magnets in each) is described. The isotope 207Bi with radioactivity 240 kBq (7 mCi) is used as an electron source radiating conversion electrons K1063 and K1770. Electrons with the energy ~ 970 and ~ 1680 keV are accompanied by the 3- and 4-times radiation intensity increases depending on the assembly type accordingly in comparison with measurements without magnetic filters, with the energy resolution ~ 20 keV. The one-fold pumping-out of the cell provided the instrument parameters constancy in the course of one month.

Quantum-Mechanical Description of Initial Stage of Fusion Reaction

Within the formalism of the reduced density matrix the process of capture of projectile by a target at energies near the Coulomb barrier is considered. The influence of dissipation and fluctuations is taken self-consistently into account. Using the calculated probabilities of the capture, averaged in all mutual orientations of the deformed colliding nuclei, the evaporation residue cross-sections are calculated for the asymmetric fusion reactions.

Preparation of Composite Membranes by Plasma Polymerization of Thiophene

The structure and electrotransport properties of poly(ethylene terephthalate) track membranes modified by thiophene plasma have been investigated. We studied the influence of a degree of oxidation by iodine and UV-irradiation of a polymer layer obtained by plasma on the membrane characteristics. It is shown that the deposition of the polymer on the surface of the track membrane by plasma polymerization of thiophene in radio-frequency discharge in case of forming a semipermeable layer results in creation of composite membranes having in a solution of electrolytes asymmetry of conductivity - a rectification effect. It is caused by presence in the membranes of two layers with functional groups various in nature, and also by changing of the pore geometry. It is shown that doping of this polymer layer by iodine or photo-oxidation causes increase in the density of a positive charge on its macromolecules, which results in changing the electrochemical properties of the membranes treated by plasma. This allows one to obtain a wide spectrum of polymeric composite membranes with the asymmetry of conductivity. Such type membranes can be used for creation of chemical and biochemical sensors.

The Ward-Takahashi Identities to Describe Nucleon and Pion Electroweak Transitions

For nucleons and pions, the relations among the propagators and vertex functions to describe the vector electroweak transitions are acquired as immediate corollary of symmetries of the hadron strong and electroweak interactions. A point of value is that the considered system comprises strongly interacting hadrons of different sorts. The electromagnetic corrections to hadron vertex functions and propagators are taken into account up to e2 order. The sequels are discussed in the light of calculation of the radiative corrections in describing the nucleon and pion electroweak transitions.

Carbon Ion Beam for Radiotherapy at the JINR Nuclotron

The main results of several experiments in the framework of project Med-Nuclotron are presented. The goal of the experiments is to measure the main parameters of 12C ion beam and to draw the first conclusions about the quality of the beam and possibility of using this beam for radiation therapy. The beam of carbon fully ionized ions with energy 500 MeV/u and intensity of 1 · 109 nucleus per spill was used. The principal property, which makes heavy ions beam the most suitable radiation for tumor therapy - its depth-dose distribution (Bragg peak). The shape measurements of the Bragg peak with ionization chambers and diamond detector were performed.

Verification of Monte-Carlo Transport Codes FLUKA, GEANT4 and SHIELD for Radiation Protection Purposes at Relativistic Heavy-Ion Accelerators

The crucial problem for radiation shielding design at heavy-ion accelerator facilities with beam energies to several GeV/n is the source term problem. Experimental data on double differential neutron yields from thick target irradiated with high-energy uranium nuclei are lacking. At present, there are not many Monte-Carlo multipurpose codes that can work with primary high-energy uranium nuclei. These codes use different physical models for simulation nucleus-nucleus reactions. Therefore, verification of the codes with available experimental data is very important for selection of the most reliable code for practical tasks. This paper presents comparisons of the FLUKA, GEANT4 and SHIELD codes simulations with the experimental data on neutron production at 1 GeV/n 238U beam interaction with thick Fe target.

Experimental Study of Swelling of Irradiated Solid Methane During Annealing

Solid methane, notwithstanding its poor radiation properties, is still widely in use at pulsed neutron sources. One of the specific problems is radiolytic hydrogen gas pressure on the walls of a methane chamber during annealing of methane. Results of experimental study of this phenomenon under fast neutron irradiation with the help of a specially made low temperature irradiation rig at the IBR-2 pulsed reactor are presented. Peak pressure on the wall of the experimental capsule during heating of a sample irradiated at 23-35 K appeared to have a maximum of 27 bar at the absorbed dose 20 MGy, and then falls down with higher doses. Pressure always reached its peak value at the temperature range of 72-79 K. Generally, three phases of methane swelling during heating can be distinguished, each characterized by proper rate and intensity.

Estimation of the Nuclotron Radiation Shielding Modernized for the NICA Project

The results of the Nuclotron radiation shielding calculations at the acceleration of uranium nuclei to energy 3.5 GeV/n and beam losses uniformly distributed along the accelerator ring of 1·108 nuclei/s are presented. The calculations were carried out by the FLUKA and GEANT4 codes for the simplified model of the accelerator placed within the synchrophasotron tunnel in compliance with national standards on radiation protection. The neutrons escaped from the Nuclotron shielding and multiscattered in air and ground will form the radiation situation around the modernized Nuclotron. The variant of the Nuclotron shielding design with the use of synchrophasotron magnet element is proposed.

Measurement of the Magnet Field Map for the Analysing Magnet of the "Delta-Sigma" Spectrometer

One of the main goals of the "Delta-Sigma-experiment" project is measurement of the energy behaviour of spin-dependent NN observables A00kk(np), A00nn(np) and Rdp in the GeV region of the neutron beam. These observables are determined by measurement of proton yields from the np pn charge-exchange reaction at 0° using a magnetic spectrometer. Measurements of the magnetic field map of the spectrometer magnet providing high accuracy in determining the proton momentum were carried out.
The "Delta-Sigma" set-up is placed at building 205 of the LHE, JINR. The spectrometer magnet 2-SP-94-1V has the external sizes 2,95 x 2,12 x 1,62 m and aperture 0,30 x 0,09 m. A three-component Hall probe was used. The measurement volume is 0,33 x 0,0645 x 1,02 m.
A description of the measuring equipment, method and results is presented. The results are used for analysis of the physical data.

On the Eigenfunction Expansions Associated with Semilinear Sturm-Liouville-Type Problems

We consider semilinear second-order ordinary differential equations, mainly autonomous in the form -u''=f(u)+lu, supplied with different sets of standard boundary conditions. Here l is a real constant or it plays the role of a spectral parameter. Mainly, we study problems in the interval (0,1). It is shown that in this case each problem we deal with has an infinite sequence of solutions or eigenfunctions. Our aim is to review recent results on basis properties of sequences of these solutions or eigenfunctions. In a number of cases, it is proved that such a system is a basis in L2 (in addition, a Riesz or Bari basis). In addition, we briefly consider a problem in the half-line (0,). In this case, the spectrum of the problem fills a half-line and an analog of the expansions into the Fourier integral occurs. The proofs are mainly based on the Bari theorem and, in addition, on our general result on sufficient conditions for a sequence of functions to be a Riesz basis in L2.

The Research for the Neutron Ambient Dose Possibility of Measurement Using the Instrument Based on the 10B-Counter with Moderator in the Fields at JINR Nuclear-Physics Installation

The results of the research for the neutron ambient dose equivalent H*(10) possibility of measurement using the instrument based on the 10B-counter (ÑÍÌ-14) with polyethylene moderator in the fields of JINR nuclear-physics installation have been presented. It was shown that the instrument can be used to measure H*(10) of neutrons in the energy range from 0.4 eV to 20 MeV with the uncertainty within 46% in radiation monitoring at JINR. The use of the correction factors can extend the energy range of the measurement of the neutron dose H*(10) up to hundreds of MeV. Neutron spectra, which were measured in the fields of nuclear installation of JINR earlier, places and conditions of their measurement, are presented too.

Pecularities of P- and S-Wave Propagation through Textured Rocks

Using the data on quasi-compressional (Vp) and quasi-shear (Vs) wave velocities measured on rock samples at high pressures and high temperatures, and 3D-velocities calculations based on orientation distribution functions of rock-forming minerals obtained by neutron diffraction analysis, the typical discrepancies between experimental and model parameters are revealed. The theoretical analysis of P- and S-wave propagation through anisotropic media is carried out. The study demonstrates that for an anisotropic inhomogeneous media the experimental P- and S-wave velocities could not coincide with numerical velocity calculations due to the physical correlation between two types of waves - compressional and shear waves.

Bifurcations in One Astrophysical Model of Rotating Magnetized Politropics with a Small Index

A solution of the equation of hydrostatical equilibrium was obtained for rapidly rotating gravitating magnetized polytropic with a small index n in linear approach by n. An existence of bifurcation points of this configuration in the interval 0 n 0.1161 was proved, in which solutions asymmetric about the axis of rotation branch off. The analytic dependence of a parameter of asymmetry X on parameter values of velocity of rotation e, index n, values of magnetic tension m was found. The problem of shift of bifurcation points induced by magnetic tension was considered. The dependence of acceleration of gravity at equator of configuration geq on parameters e and n was investigated. For the first time it was proved that a series of rotating polytropes having bifurcation points breaks at nk=0.1161, much earlier than the values specified in [6, 7]: nk=0.83 and nk=0.808. It was shown that this effect was due to the essentially nonlinear dependence of geq on n and connected with the rapidly growing equatorial radius req according to the increase of the polytropic index n.

Investigation of Spatial Distribution of Fission-Rate of Natural Uranium Nuclei in the Blanket of Electronuclear Setup "Energy plus Transmutation" at Dubna Nuclotron Proton Beam at Energy 1.5 GeV

The "Energy plus Transmutation" experimental setup of the Veksler and Baldin Laboratory of High Energy Physics within the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR) in Dubna, Russia, is a lead target (with a diameter of 8.4 cm and length of 45.6 cm) surrounded by a uranium blanket (weight 206.4 kg of natural uranium). A polyethylene plus cadmium shield is placed around the target-blanket assembly to modify the spallation and fission neutron spectra in the system. The setup was irradiated by a proton beam of energy 1.5 GeV using the Nuclotron accelerator. In this work the spatial distribution of natural uranium fission-rate in the assembly and fission-rate in the blanket was determined experimentally and compared with Monte-Carlo predictions using the MCNPX 2.6C code. Besides neutron-induced fission the calculations include the NatU(p, f), NatU(p, f) as well as NatU(g, f) reactions. Good agreement between the experimental and calculation results was obtained. The possible sources of errors in the experiment and calculations are discussed in detail.

Inertial Frame Transformation Based on Lobachevsky Function and Some Optical Phenomena (Michelson-Morley Experiment and Doppler Effect)

The inertial frame transformation based on the Lobachevsky function and some of its properties are reminded. The results of introducing them into a physical consideration of the Michelson experiment and standard Doppler effect in optics, are presented. It is shown that the new transformation approves the negative result obtained in the Michelson experiment in the same way as the Lorentz one. But the crucial result is expected for the measurements performed with unequal lengths of the interferometer optical arms and it will be in favour of the new one. In contrast to Lorentz contraction the relativity requirements of the new transformation again lead to two different formulas for the Doppler effect in optics as in acoustics.

Diagrammatic Theory for Anderson Impurity Model

A diagrammatic theory around atomic limit is proposed for the normal and superconducting states of the Anderson impurity model. The impurity electrons have strong Coulomb repulsion between them. This interaction is the main parameter of the theory. The new method is based on the ordinary Wick theorem for conduction electrons and generalized Wick theorem for strongly correlated impurity electrons. For the mean value of evolution operator the linked cluster theorem is proved and the Dyson-type equations for one-particle propagators of conduction and impurity electrons in the normal and superconducting states of the system have been established. The behavior of the impurity electron spectral function has been studied. The structure of the resonances and their properties are analyzed. We have proved that the thermodynamic potential of this strongly correlated system can be presented, after introduction of special integration by the constant of hybridization strength, as the functional of the full Green function of conduction electrons and its mass operator. The stationary property of this potential related to the changes of the mass operator has been demonstrated as well.

Stress Analysis of the Ti-SS Transition Joint

The bimetallic (titanium-stainless steel) transition sample in the ILC cryomodule design was found to be leak-proof in the tests. Before manufacture and tests of a larger-size sample, displacements and stresses in the transition element arising from its being cooled from room temperature down to the liquid helium temperature were evaluated, and the parameters for both versions (tubes of different diameters) were compared.

The Ratio Rdp of the Quasi-Elastic ndp(nn) to the Elastic nppn Charge-Exchange Process Yields at 0o over 0.55-2.0 GeV Neutron Beam Energy Region: 1. Experimental Results

New experimental results on ratio Rdp of the quasi-elastic charge-exchange yield at 0oLab for the ndp+(nn) reaction to the elastic nppn charge-exchange yield are presented. The measurements were carried out at the Nuclotron of JINR VBLHE at neutron beam kinetic energies of 0.55, 0.8, 1.0, 1.2, 1.4, 1.8 and 2.0 GeV. The data were accumulated by means of the "Delta-Sigma" set-up magnetic spectrometer with two sets of multiwire proportional chambers located upstream and downstream of the analyzing magnet. Inelastic processes were considerably reduced by means of the additional detectors surrounding the hydrogen and deuterium targets. The time-of-flight system was applied to identify a detected particle. The accumulated data treatment and analysis of possible systematic errors are discussed. The obtained Rdp values remain nearly constant with the energy. The new data are compared with the existing ones, which were measured up to 1 GeV. The comparison of these data with the calculations of Rdp obtained by using the invariant amplitude sets from the GW/VPI phase-shift analysis was made in a separate paper.

The Ratio Rdp of the Quasi-Elastic nd p(nn) to the Elastic np pn Charge-Exchange Process Yields at 0° over 0.55-2.0 GeV Neutron Beam Energy Region: 2. Comparison of the Results with the Model Dependent Calculations

In our previous paper, the new experimental results on ratio Rdp of the quasi-elastic charge-exchange yield at 0°Lab for the nd p+(nn) reaction to the elastic np pn charge-exchange yield, were presented. The measurements were carried out at the Nuclotron of the Veksler and Baldin Laboratory of High Energies of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research at the neutron beam kinetic energies of 0.55, 0.8, 1.0, 1.2, 1.4, 1.8 and 2.0 GeV. In this paper, the comparison of these Rdp data with the Rdp calculations obtained within the impulse approximation by using the invariant amplitude sets from the GW/VPI phase-shift analysis, is made. The calculated Rdp values with the set of invariant amplitude data for the elastic np pn charge exchange at p,CM = 0° are in a good agreement with the experimental data. It has been confirmed that at p,CM = 0° the nd pnn process is caused by the elastic np pn charge-exchange reaction. Thus, it has been shown that the obtained experimental Rdp results can be used for the Delta-Sigma experimental programme to reduce the total ambiguity in the extraction of the amplitude real parts.

On Nonregularity of Movement of a Spherical Bead Conveying Pneumatically in a Pipe

Kinematics of a solid spherical bead driven with gas flow along a cylindrical tube is considered. The simplest theoretical analysis of how thresholds and ledges, formed by roughness of pipe walls, affect speed of a bead, is derived. Inevitability of nonregularity of bead movement, that is, alternation of accelerations and decelerations, is concluded. Formulas for estimation of both maximal and minimal speed of a bead at the given spatial distribution of thresholds and their height is derived. Some theoretical assertions are proved experimentally. The investigation has been performed in the frame of a project of the pelletized cold neutron moderator for the IBR-2M reactor.

Spallation and Fission Products in the (p+179Hf) and (p+natHf) Reactions

Production of the high-spin isomers of Hf and Lu has been experimentally studied in the spallation reaction with intermediate energy protons. The targets prepared of enriched 179Hf (91 %) and natHf have been exposed to protons with energy range from 90 to 650 MeV using the internal beams of the Dubna Phasotron accelerator. Activation yields of the reaction products are measured by methods of g-spectroscopy and radiochemistry. The production cross sections for 179m2Hf, 178m2Hf and 177mLu have been found comparable to the values measured earlier through spallation of Ta to Re targets. Thus, the exclusive reactions with emission of only a few nucleons, like (p, p'), (p, p' n) and (p, 2pn), can transfer enough angular momentum to the product and provide reasonable cross sections.

The acceleration of uranium ions with the charge Z = 32 and atomic mass A = 238 is discussed. In the first section of the spiral waveguide working at the frequency f1 = 10 MHz with the RF power P = 3 MW, ions are accelerated from Wi = 11.25 keV/nucleon to W1i = 500 keV/nucleon on the length L1 = 2.5 m. The magnetic field focusing ions B1 = 1.5 T. The second section working at the frequency f2 = 150 MHz has the length L2 = 12.5 m. The focusing magnetic field B2 = 2 T. The final energy of ions Wi2 = 5.6 MeV/nucleon.
The acceleration of ions in coaxial resonators begins from the energy Wi = 84 keV/nucleon to Wi1 = 500 keV/nucleon on the length L1= 3.6 m after crossing 30 resonators. The RF power of each resonator P = 50 kW, frequency f2 = 150 MHz, high voltage on each gap E1 = 100 kV/cm. Focusing of the ion beam is realized by quadrupole magnetic lenses between the resonators.

On the Possibility to Verify Multidimensional Gravity by Means of Neutrons

The possibility to verify the Newtonian gravitational law for short distances with neutrons is discussed. Deviation from the law may be expected in case of validity of the idea on the existence of multidimensional gravity. Within the framework of the theoretical model related to the length of electroweak interaction in the Born approximation expressions for the amplitudes of gravitational neutron scattering have been obtained. Influence of the gravitational scattering on the asymmetry (forward-backward) of the neutron scattering interacting with nuclei at the neutron energies from ultracold ones (10-10 eV) up to several GeV has been calculated. Analysis of the results shows that such experiments may scarcely serve as verification of the idea of existence of multidimensional gravitation at the existing accuracy.

Measurement of Nuclear Charges of Fission Fragments Using Big Ionization Chamber in the Frame of a Double-Armed Time-of-Flight Spectrometer

Multiparameter identification of the reaction products proved to be very actual in studying of rare collinear multibody decays of the low excited heavy nuclei. This work is dedicated to the method of measuring nuclear charges of the decay products detected by high aperture ionization chamber in the frame of a double-armed time-of-flight spectrometer. Two versions of the nuclear charge calibration procedure were worked out using the data from the reaction 235U(nth, f). Simulation showed that charge parameterization based on the Bohr-Willer empirical equation used in the framework of the calibration procedure proposed here allows one to estimate satisfactorily the fragment nuclear charge in a wide energy range. The predicted charges for the light ions from He up to C prove to be overestimated by approximately two charge units.

Study of the Properties of the Nanostructured Magnetic Systems on the Fe3O4 Basis by the SR-Technique

The ferrofluid on the basis of the Fe3O4 nanoparticles dispersed in the heavy water D2O has been investigated by the SR-technique. The experiment was carried out at the temperatures 26-300 K. It was observed that muon (diamagnetic) fraction is created in the ferrofluid approximately in the same proportion as in D2O; however, the muon spin relaxation rate is considerably higher in the ferrofluid than in D2O. The essential frequency shift of the muon spin precession in the ferrofluid was found. It is shown that this frequency shift of the muon spin precession is described by the Langevin function typical for the paramagnetic. The value of the mean field in the matter due to polarization of the magnetic nanoparticles is determined experimentally for the first time. The nanoparticles size was estimated.

Fusability and Survivability in Reactions Leading to Heavy Nuclei in the Vicinity of the N=126 Shell

The production of heavy nuclei from Rn to Th around the N = 126 neutron shell in complete fusion reactions of nuclei has been considered in à systematic way in the framework of the conventional barrier-passing fusion model coupled with the Standard Statistical Model (SSM). Available data on the excitation functions for fission and production of evaporation residues obtained in very asymmetric combinations are described with these models rather well. In the interaction of massive projectiles with heavy target nuclei quasi-fission effects appear in the entrance reaction channel. The quantity of the fusion probability introduced empirically has been used to reproduce excitation functions with the same SSM parameters (fission barriers) as those obtained in the analysis of very asymmetric combinations. À lack of stabilization against fission around N = 126 for Th nuclei was earlier explained with à reduced collective contribution to the level density in spherical nuclei. However, the present analysis shows severe inhibition for fusion, i.å., the drop in production cross sections of Th nuclei in the vicinity of N = 126 is mainly caused by entrance channel effects. The macroscopic component of fission barriers for nuclei involved in à deexcitation cascade has been derived and compared with the theoretical model predictions and available data.

Self-Organization of Physical Fields and Spin

The subject of the present investigation is the laws of intrinsic self-organization of fundamental physical fields. In the framework of the Theory of Self-Organization the geometrical and physical nature of spin phenomena is uncovered. The key points are spin symmetry (the fundamental realization of the concept of geometrical internal symmetry) and the spinning field (space of defining representation of spin symmetry). It is shown that the essence of spin is the bipolar structure of spin symmetry induced by the gravitational potentials. The bipolar structure provides natural violation of spin symmetry and leads to spinstatics (theory of spinning field outside the time) and spindynamics. The equations of spinstatics and spindynamics are derived. It is shown that Sommerfeld's formula can be derived from the equations of spindynamics and hence the correspondence principle is valid. This means that the Theory of Self-Organization provides the new understanding of spin phenomena.

The overdamped diabatic motion may influence also fission of the spallation-residue products in reactions with protons at intermediate energy. The experimental results on fission-to-spallation ratio are analyzed and the evidences for the long-time scale fission are found in the fission excitation functions for medium-mass targets with Z = 70-75.

The Search and Study of Low-Mass Scalar Mesons at the Impulse of Neutron Beam Pn =(5.200.12) GeV/c in the Reaction i>npnp +-

Using irradiation of 1 m HBC LHE JINR by quasimonochromatic neutron beam with impulse Pn =(5.200.12) GeV/c which was produced after acceleration of deuterons in the synchrophasotron LHE JINR, 25650 events of reaction npnp +- were selected. After supplementary sorting out events in which cos p* >0 in the effective mass spectrum of +--combinations there were found out nine peculiarities at masses 350, 408, 489, 579, 676, 762, 878, 1036, 1170 MeV/c2 and with experimental widths not more than several tens of MeV/c2. The resonance effects are significantly increased after using additional criterion - balance of the summary of the longitudinal impulses of +and - mesons in general c.m.s. of reaction. By these conditions values of standard derivations from background are more than 5 for all peculiarities. The direct measurement of the spins of resonances was carried out. Also, other quantum numbers were obtained. All these peculiarities have IG (JPC)=0+(0++). In this way, the sequence of scalar-izoscalar resonances f0(0) with masses in the range M 1200 MeV/c2 is seen. The information about these resonances was absent in literature. The phenomenological dependence of mass of resonance on its number was found. This dependence covers not only resonances shown in this paper but also all the resonances with quantum numbers of f0(0) mesons presented in PDG.

The Use of the Ohmic Heated Sheet in Combination with the ECR Ion Source for the Production of the Ca Ion Beam

The production of intense accelerated 48Ca ion beams is the key problem in the experiments on the synthesis of new super heavy nuclei. For this purpose in the FLNR (JINR) an ECR ion source is used at the U-400 cyclotron. The combination of a microoven with a hot tantalum sheet inside the discharge chamber allowed the production of the intense 48Ca5+ ion beam at the 48Ca consumption of about 0.5 mg/h. In this case the tantalum sheet is heated by microwaves and plasma electrons. The microwave power of up to 400 W is required to heat the sheet to the temperature of about 500 ° C. To decrease the required microwave power a new sheet with a direct ohmic heating was designed. The present paper describes the method, technique and preliminary experimental results on the production of the Ca ion beam.

In the paper an algorithm to find eigenvalues and eigenfunctions for one boundary problem for the equation of 4th order with a small parameter at the highest derivative with Coulomb potential is proposed.

The investigations of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions with different values of have been conducted. In the fixed value of two types of solutions have been found. At 0, one of these solutions converts to the solution of the Schrodinger equation, and the other comes into boundary layer.

3D Finite Elements with Harmonic Basis Functions for Approximations of High Orde

As is known, most wide-spread finite elements are defined as a cell with basis functions. In the present paper for such cells as tetrahedron, cube, rectangular prism, etc., the methods of production of harmonic basis functions with approximation of high order have been developed. In particular, the recursion relations for calculation of the basis functions and the algorithm of their production are presented. The conditions on transformations of coordinates keeping the harmonicity property of the basis functions are also considered. The distinctive peculiarities of obtained finite elements are absence of inner nodes and possibility of adaptive condensation of nodes on a cell boundary. For tetrahedrons and rectangular prisms the constructed basis functions exactly approximate the harmonic polynomials of the second, third, fourth and fifth orders. The proposed finite elements may be used for problems of interpolation and integration of harmonic functions and also for solving the boundary value problems with Laplace and Poisson equations in scalar and vector cases by means of projective numerical methods. The examples of hp-interpolation of dipole magnetic fields with high accuracy are given. The approximations obtained as a result of the interpolation satisfy the vector Laplacian with computer accuracy. In order to construct the approximations a smaller number of nodes is required in comparison with the usual Lagrange finite elements.

The Bogoliubov Renorm-Group

This is a separate publication of the Supplement to volume X of Ñollected Works (in 12 volumes) by N.N. Bogoliubov devoted to his 100th birthday. The paper contains a propaedeutic review of the renormalization group fundamentals in the form ascending to Marius Sophus Lie treatise of the end of the 19th century. This standpoint treats renormalization group as a continuous Lie group of finite transformations, with the underlying symmetry being an exact symmetry of a partial solution. Just this interpretation was put by Bogoliubov as a base of his papers of the mid-1950s. That is the reason that we use the name "the Bogoliubov Renorm-Group".
Such an approach releases the renormalization group from any association with subtracting ultraviolet divergencies. In turn, it lightens the appreciation of foundations of the renormalization group and of the renormalization group method in quantum theory. At the same time it helps to realize its affinity and differences with approximate Wilson's semigroup in the theory of critical phenomena and with some other constructions that employ the related terminology. We give a few simple examples from the classical physics.
The last Section contains an overview of three recently (1980s-1990s) devised fields of application of the Bogoliubov Renorm-Group:
- mass-dependent renorm-group in the threshold vicinity in the context of the Standard Model,
- Analytic Perturbation Theory in Quantum Chromodynamics free of unphysical singularities, and
- the "Renorm-Group Symmetries" method for improvement of boundary value problem solution in mathematical physics.

A Study of Quasi-Elastic Muon (Anti)Neutrino Scattering in the NOMAD Experiment

We have studied the muon neutrino and antineutrino quasi-elastic (QEL) scattering reactions (n- p and p+n) using a set of experimental data collected by the NOMAD collaboration. We have performed measurements of the cross section of these processes on a nuclear target (mainly carbon) normalizing it to the total () charged current cross section. The results for the flux averaged QEL cross sections in the (anti)neutrino energy interval 3-100 GeV are <gel> = (0.92 0.02 (stat.) 0.06 (syst.)) · 10-38 cm2 and <gel> = (0.810.05 (stat.) 0.08 (syst.) · 10-38 cm2 for neutrino and antineutrino, respectively. The axial mass parameter MA was extracted from the measured quasi-elastic neutrino cross section. The corresponding result is MA = 1.050.02 (stat.) 0.06 (syst.) GeV. It is consistent with the axial mass values recalculated from the antineutrino cross section and extracted from the pure Q2 shape analysis of the high purity sample of quasi-elastic 2-track events, but has smaller systematic error and should be quoted as the main result of this work. The measured MA is found to be in good agreement with the world average value obtained in the previous deuterium filled bubble chamber experiments. These results do not support MA measurements published recently by the K2K and MiniBooNE collaborations, which reported somewhat larger values, which are however compatible with our results within their large errors.

Investigation of the Possibility of Producing the Bimetallic Tube Transition Element by Explosion Welding for the Cryomodule of the International Linear Collider

The results of the investigation of the possibility of producing the bimetallic tube transition element for the cryomodule of the International Linear Collider (ILC) by explosion welding at the Russian Federal Nuclear Center — VNIIEF (Sarov) are presented. Three options of the bimetallic transition tube were made of titanium and type 316 stainless steel produced by different manufacturers. The quality of the titanium–stainless steel welded joint was checked by the following inspection methods: measurement of leak rate; determination of strength; metallographic analysis. It is shown that the quality of the welded joint of the bimetallic tube billet is satisfactory. All welded joints tested before and after cooling in liquid nitrogen within ~ 10 min show good leakproof (< 1·10-9 atm·cm3/s). Shearing strength of the welded joint is sh 500 MPa. Macrodefects, such as cracks, spills, and peelings, were not found in the welded joints. Small and evenly distributed microdefects (interstices, intermetallides) not forming big aggregations do not influence the working capacity of the welded joints.

Characterization Measurements of Ti–SS Bimetallic Transition Joint Samples

A small set of bimetallic tubes has been investigated for the purpose to determine characteristics of samples at different conditions of tests for more statistics. Nine bimetallic samples have been manufactured at the Russian Federal Nuclear Center — VNIIEF (Sarov, Russia) using explosion technology for welding titanium and stainless steel tubes. During the tests eight samples have shown an excellent behavior. This result is very good and we believe that these samples can be used for the construction of the cavity vessels. A preliminary measurement on the residual magnetic moment around junction line between the two materials has been carried out.

On Pneumatic Conveying of Solid Beads of a Cold Neutron Moderator

Results of numerical modeling of aerodymamics and movement of an ideal smooth single ball conveying pneumatically inside a cylindrical pipe, including aerodynamical forces and angular momentum coefficients, are presented. Ratio of a diameter of the ball to that of the pipe was as much as 0.3. Analytic solutions of a transport equation using calculated coefficients were derived as well. Experiments on a simulating conveying pipe have approved analytical approach for movement of a spherical bead through a cylindrical pipe but for initial stage of acceleration where speed of a ball is up to 30-40 % of an averaged gas velocity. At higher speed of a ball, nonregularity of its movement, that is, alternation of acceleration and deceleration, appears to be inevitable. Reason of it is roughness of pipe walls and deviation of bead shape from spherical one.

Studies on Conformational States of the Chromophore Group, 11-cis-Retinal, in Rhodopsin by Computer Molecular Simulation Methods

Based on computer simulation methods a comparative study of molecular dynamics of rhodopsin, which contains a chromophore (11-cis-retinal) group, and a free opsin has been performed. Molecular dynamics has been traced up within 3 ns time interval; thereby 3 · 106 discrete conformational states of rhodopsin and opsin were compared and analyzed. It is demonstrated that the presence of a light absorbing group (11-cis-retinal) in opsin's chromophore pocket has a considerable influence on the protein neighborhood, surrounding of 11-cis-retinal from beta-ionone ring region, as well as on the distant (cytoplasmic and extracellular) regions. From the simulation results we discuss the molecular mechanism that assumes rhodopsin as a G-protein coupled receptor in the inactivated state functioning as an efficient ligand antagonist.

Transmutation of Th and U with Neutrons Produced in Pb Target and U-Blanket System by Relativistic Deuterons

Lead target and uranium blanket setup called "Energy plus Transmutation" was irradiated by 1.6 GeV deuteron beam from the Nuclotron accelerator at the Laboratory of High Energies of Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (Dubna). Neutrons generated by spallation reactions of deuterons with lead target interact with subcritical uranium blanket. In the neutron field outside the blanket radioactive uranium and thorium samples were irradiated. Reaction rate of some residual nuclei determined using the method of gamma-spectrometry in the experiment is used to calculate the transmutation power of the setup. Experimental results are compared with the Monte Carlo calculation performed by the MCNPX 2.6.C code and with some results of the TARC experiment.

Microstructure of Magnetite Doped Elastomers Investigated by SAXS and SANS

We present some recent results on the SAXS and SANS investigations of the magnetic elastomers. Samples were obtained by polymerizing dimethylsiloxane with Fe3O4 ferrofluid in a magnetic field and without magnetic field and characterized by XRD, SANS and SAXS. The SAXS maximum at large angles, obtained from magnetic elastomers, was fitted by using a Pseudo-Voigt function. It was found that the Fe3O4 particles lead to a change of the local structure of elastomer, meaning the decrease of the quasi-crystalline phase and of the micro-strains induced in the matrix. The average particle size obtained from SANS measurements agrees well with the average particle size determined by XRD and SAXS analysis. The splitting of the SANS intensity owing to an additional scattering in zero field reflects the existence of magnetic correlations inside the Q region of 0.005 < Q < 0.02 -1.

New Properties of z-Scaling: Flavor Independence and Saturation at Low z

Experimental ISR, RHIC, and Tevatron data on inclusive cross sections of particles produced in high energy proton-(anti)proton collisions are analyzed in the framework of z-scaling. New features of the scaling function y(z) are established. These are flavor independence of y(z) including particles with heavy flavor content and saturation at low z. Flavor independence means that the shape of the scaling function y(z) is the same for different hadron species. Saturation corresponds to flattening of y(z) for low z< 0.1. Relations of model parameters used in data z-presentation with some thermodynamical quantities (entropy, specific heat, temperature) are discussed. It is shown that behavior of particle spectra at low z is controlled by a parameter c interpreted as specific heat of the created medium associated with production of the inclusive particle. The saturation regime of y(z) observed at low z is assumed to be preferable in searching for phase transitions of hadron matter and for study of nonperturbative QCD in high energy proton-(anti)proton collisions at U70, RHIC, Tevatron, and LHC.

The averaged values of these parameters of gamma-decay well correspond to main dependencies revealed by now from analogous experiments for 42 nuclei from the mass region 40 A 200. And they do not correspond to the existing ideas of the cascade gamma-decay parameters of compound-nuclei with high level density.

Spline-Collocation Scheme of High Order of Accuracy for Systems of Ordinary Differential Equations

In this paper we propose spline-collocation scheme for solving linear boundary value problems for systems of ODE's of the second order. We discuss the case when the system is given on the embedded intervals too. For smooth enough solutions the scheme precision on uniform grids is O(h4). The scheme can be easily generalized on discontinuous problems without violation of the structure of the algebraic system. The scheme can be applied for solving numerous nonlinear physical problems. As a concrete example we consider the problem for static distributions of magnetic flux in a system of two magnetically coupled long Josephson junctions with different layer lengths.

A key question relating to the discovery of a new nuclide is the probability that the observed event sequence is due to a random correlation of unrelated events.

Bound States and Scattering Lengths of Three Two-Component Particles with Zero-Range Interactions under One-Dimensional Confinement

The universal three-body dynamics in ultracold binary gases confined to one-dimensional motion is studied. The three-body binding energies and the (2 + 1)-scattering lengths are calculated for two identical particles of mass m and a different one of mass m/m1, between which interactions are described in the low-energy limit by zero-range potentials. The critical values of the mass ratio m/m1, at which the three-body states arise and the (2 + 1)-scattering length equals zero, are determined both for zero and infinite interaction strength l1 of the identical particles. A number of exact results are enlisted and asymptotic dependences both for m/m1 and l1 - are derived. Combining the numerical and analytical results, a schematic diagram showing the number of the three-body bound states and the sign of the (2 + 1)-scattering length in the plane of the mass ratio and interaction-strength ratio is deduced. The results provide a description of the homogeneous and mixed phases of atoms and molecules in dilute binary quantum gases.

Peculiarities of Nuclear Reactions Induced by 6He, 6,7Li Nuclei near Coulomb Barrier Energy

Experimental excitation functions are presented for complete fusion and transfer reactions in the interaction of 6He and 6Li with 206Pb, 209Bi and Pt targets. The data on fusion in the 6He induced reactions at energies close to the Coulomb barrier differ from predictions within the framework of the statistical model for compound nuclei decay. For these exit channels a strong enhancement has been observed. Enhancement of the cross section for neutron transfer (6He beam) and deuteron transfer (6Li beam) reactions is observed at deep subbarrier energies. The results are discussed from the point of view of how the nuclear cluster structure influences the probability of interaction at near barrier energies.

Finite-Size Scaling and Strong Space Anisotropy: O() Spin Models

We present analytical results for the finite-size scaling behavior of d-dimensional O() spin systems with strong space anisotropy, described by a model Hamiltonian with interaction between spins which in the k space has leading terms of the form i=0l ai|ki|2i. Here ki are pi-dimensional vectors, such that i=0l pi=d, l>0, ai 0 are some constants and i > 0 are parameters controlling the range of interaction. We consider systems confined to a d-dimensional layer with the geometry Lp0(0)p1(1) ...pl(l) and periodic boundary conditions across the finite p0 dimensions with the characteristic length "L". It is shown that there are dimensions d between the lower and upper critical dimensions for which the finite-size scaling behavior of the model is uniquely determined by the parameters 0, p0, l:=1-i=1l(pi/2i). Prominent examples are systems with the Lifshitz point critical behavior and/or quantum critical behavior.

Controlling the Pore Structure in Track Membranes: The Behavior of Surface-active Substances in Track-Etching Solutions

Surfactants are used in track-membrane etching in order to obtain special pore geometries, for instance, with the aim of manufacturing high-productivity membranes. To understand how the surfactants affect the track etching process, it is necessary to know the behavior of surfactant molecules in etching solutions. In particular, it is necessary to know how they aggregate in track-etching solutions. We present here the results of our investigations of the micelle formation for the dodecyl sulfophenoxy benzene sulfonate and nonyl benzene deca ethyleneoxide (NBDEO) in neutral and alkaline solutions of electrolytes. The measurements are performed using the method of Small-Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS). We found that the micelles formed in etching solutions are cylindrical (elliptical) in shape. We also study the influence of the surfactant concentration and of the type of added electrolytes on the characteristic micelle sizes. We end the paper by discussing how the obtained data is related to the geometry and dynamics of "track" nanopores etching in surfactant-enhanced solutions.

A numerical scheme for solving a system of the nonlinear differential equations describing the evolution of the polaron in a homogeneous environment has been investigated. An accuracy of the computational scheme is analyzed. The obtained results allow us to conclude that if in an initial state the polaron was in a particular state (basic or excited one), it remains in this state irrespective of the presence or absence of damping in the system. It is shown that the initial charge distributions given by some superpositions at presence in the system of damping eventually evolve to a basic state. No evolution to a basic state is observed at the absence of damping in the system.

Mathematical Modelling of Thermal Processes in Materials at Irradiation by Heavy Ions of High Energies

In the work one of the methods of numerical solution of the equations of mathematical physics - the finite-difference method and its application for the equations of thermal spike model has been presented. The numerical analysis of convergence of an explicit finite-difference computational scheme and alternating direction method is carried out, and also the efficiency and deficiencies of these schemes are explored. The obtained results of investigation of thermal processes in nickel at irradiation by uranium ions of the energy 700 MeV with consideration of power losses by phonon oscillations are represented. The sizes of areas in the target, where temperature exceeds the melting point of a material of the target and phase changes can take place, are estimated. A comparative analysis with the model that does not take into account the energy losses of a heavy ion by phonon oscillations is made.

Problems of Monitoring the Cryomodule Cold Mass Displacement

The paper deals with the problems of using the wire position monitor (WPM) for determining the position of superconducting accelerating cavities in the cryomodule which is the main structure element of modern linear accelerators. The circuit of matched connection of the WPM into the cold mass displacement measurement system is proposed. A new appropriately grounded approach to determination of the relation between the displacement and the amplitudes of the coordinate electrode signals and the monitor parameters is developed. This relation takes into account the wire diameter 2R and describes the quantity r with an accuracy order of magnitude better than the previous one in the range of small displacements r 0,15R. For the first time it is shown that two-strip wire monitors can be used, which substantially reduces the cost of the cold mass displacement monitoring system for cryomodules while the measurement accuracy is preserved.

Top Quark Mass Measurement in the 2.9 fb.1 Tight Lepton and Isolated Track Sample Using Neutrino ƒÓ Weighting Method

We report on a measurement of the top quark mass with t dilepton events produced in p collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron ( =1.96 TeV) and collected by the CDF II detector. Events with a charged muon or electron and an isolated track are searched for tt candidates. A sample of 328 events, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.9 fb-1, is obtained after all selection cuts. The top quark mass is reconstructed by minimizing a x2 function in the assumption of the t dilepton hypothesis. The unconstrained kinematics of dilepton events is taken into account by the scan over the space of possibilities for the azimuthal angles of neutrinos, and a preferred mass is built for each event. In order to extract the top quark mass, a likelihood fit of the preferred mass distribution in data to a weighted sum of signal and background probability density functions is performed. Using the background constrained fit with 145.0±17.3 events expected from background we measure mt = 165.5 ± 3,43,3 (stat.) GeV/c2. The estimate of systematic error is 3.1 GeV/c2.

Structural and Electrostatic Regularities in Interactions of Homeodomains with Operator DNA

Interfaces of five DNA-homeodomain complexes, selected by similarity of structures and patterns of contacting residues were compared. The long-range stage of the recognition process was characterized by electrostatic potentials about 5 away from molecular surfaces of both protein and DNA. For proteins, clear positive potential is displayed only at the side contacting DNA, while grooves of DNA display a strong negative potential. Thus, one functional role of electrostatics is guiding the protein into the DNA major groove. At the close-range stage, neutralization of the phosphate charges by positively charged residues is necessary for decreasing the strong electrostatic potential of DNA, allowing nucleotide bases to participate in formation of protein-DNA atomic contacts in the interface. The protein's recognizing a-helix was shown to form both invariant and variable contacts with DNA by means of the certain specific side groups, with water molecules participating in some of the contacts. The invariant contacts included the highly specific Asn-Ade hydrogen bonds, nonpolar contacts of hydrophobic amino acids serving as barriers for fixing the protein on DNA, and interface water molecule cluster providing local mobility necessary for the dissociation of the protein-DNA compex. One of the water molecules is invariant and located at the center of the interface. Invariant contacts of the proteins are mostly formed with the TAAT motive of promoter DNA's forward strand. They distinguish the homeodomain family from other DNA-binding proteins. Variable contacts are formed with the reverse strand and are responsible for the binding specificity within the homeodomain family.

Random Nature in the Dynamics of Slow Power Feedback of the Pulsed Fast Reactor IBR-2

Analysis of the relationship between the parameters of slow power feedback and power production in the pulsed fast reactor IBR-2 has been accomplished. The investigation result has shown that unlike the parameters of fast power feedback, the parameters of slow dynamics are not related to energy production and have considerable noise components. This is caused by the fact that the slow dynamics of the reactor is generated by the processes in the structural components around the reactor vessel, in which relatively mild radiation, thermal and mechanical conditions are observed.
The most possible causes of the random change in the parameters of slow dynamics from one reactor cycle to another are the irreversibility of displacement of the stationary reflectors, change in the parameters of the cooling systems of the stationary reflectors. This randomness in the dynamics of the reactor does not influence the reliability and safety of the reactor.

Determination of Heat Leakage into the Pipeline of Mesitylene Balls for Cryogenic Moderator of IBR-2M Reactor

The modernization reactor of IBR-2 takes place in the Laboratory of Neutron Physics of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research at present. The complex of cryogenic moderators based on frozen mesitylene balls is included in the modernization plan of the reactor. The charge of the balls in the chamber of moderators will be produced by pneumatic transport by cold helium flow with a temperature of about 40-50 K. The experiments for definition of heat leakages on the transporting pipe from the quantity of the thermal protection layers are presented. It is shown that the heat leakage per unit surface, which can be achieved, is no more than 1 W/m.

An opportunity of studying hadron azimuthal correlations with the CBM detector (GSI, Germany) is considered. The results include the full simulation of the UrQMD events together with a simplified consideration of the calorimeter near the beam-pipe. The expectations of the correlations are presented. The centrality determination is considered via both the charged particles detected in the tracking system and the energy deposited in the calorimeter. The segmentation of the calorimeter is discussed from the point of view of the determination accuracy of the reaction plane.

State Equations and Molar Volumes of Hydrogen at Super High Pressure

Interpolations of hydrogen experimental molar volumes using logarithm expansion series and Tait equation in pressure interval from P = 3.0 kbar to P = 7.0 kbar for four experimental temperatures were carried out. It was shown that for good approximation of experimental values using logarithm expansion series only three parameters are necessary. Unfortunately, such an expansion gives very bad approximation at pressures P< 3.0 kbar. Extrapolations of molar volumes on high pressures interval up to P=20 kbar using Tait equation and logarithm expansion series allow one to mention that these different functions give practically the same values of extrapolating molar volumes at high pressure. One can conclude that mean distances between hydrogen atoms in high dense hydrogen gas are less than such values in any saturated hydrides.

Comparison of Various State Equations for Approximation and Extrapolation of Experimental Hydrogen Molar Volumes in Wide Temperature and Pressure Intervals

The numerical analysis of practically all existing formulae such as expansion series, Tait, logarithm, Van der Waals and virial equations for interpolation of experimental molar volumes versus high pressure was carried out. One can conclude that extrapolating dependences of molar volumes versus pressure and temperature can be valid. It was shown that virial equations can be used for fit experimental data at relatively low pressures P < 3 kbar too in distinction of other equations. Direct solving of linear equation of the third order relatively to volume using extrapolated virial coefficients allows us to obtain good agreement between existing experimental data for high pressure and calculated values.

Extrapolation of Hydrogen Molar Volumes by the Virial Equation on Wide Pressure and Temperature Intervals

A virial equation was used for approximation of experimental molar volumes at high and low pressures for experimental temperatures. It was shown that the virial equation can be used for wide pressure and temperature intervals in distinction of the Tait, logarithm and other equations. The obtained under ftting of experimental data virial parameters were used for their following extrapolations on wide temperature intervals. The direct solution of the third order linear virial equations relative to molar volumes using the Kardano or Neuton methods was employed for extrapolation of experimental dependences from high pressure to low pressure and from low pressure to high and superhigh pressures. A quite good agreement between experimental values of molar volumes versus pressures and extrapolating ones allows one to conclude that for a defnite temperature interval with high probability and proof it is possible to make extrapolations on superhigh pressures.

Schmidt Equation: "Flexible" Path Integration

A classic method proposed by K.-H.Schmidt for determining an expected probability of random correlations assumes some a priori knowledge on the type of the multiple-link event to single it out of the stochastic stream of the imitator signals. Here, typical are scenarios with fixed order or partially free order (taking the signal from recoil nucleus as the first element of the chain).
The present work considers the case when the elements of order are observed in an arbitrary location of the multiple-link event. Schmidt's equation is integrated just for the "flexible" scenario. The problem of organizing energy intervals for evaluating the probability of random correlations is also considered. Given are evaluations of the amplitudes of signals from spontaneous fission in p-i-n diode in the case that the energy scale is calibrated with the peaks of average light and heavy fission fragments of the 252Cf source.
Description of the detecting system of the Dubna gas-filled recoil separator is given in brief, which makes the process of the formation of multiple-link events in the decay of superheavy elements more understandable to the reader.

The Structure of Carbosilane Dendrimers of Higher Generations

Using small-angle neutron scattering method, we investigate the structure of carbosilane dendrimers of the ninth generation with a four-function core and butyl terminal groups. It is shown that the dendrimers in question are monodispersive objects having anisometric form. The values of the partial volume and the mean scattering length density are determined with the contrast variation method. The studied dendrimers exhibit the same size and distribution of the scattering length density. It is found that about 20 % of the interior dendrimer volume is permeable to a solvent. Performing a Monte Carlo simulation, we reconstruct the spatial distribution of scattering length density over the dendrimers and reveal changing of the excluded volume for different contrasts. The spatial structure features of carbosilane dendrimers of higher generations are discussed.

Microstructure of Dimethylsiloxane Based Magnetic Elastomers

Dimethylsiloxane based elastomers filled with two types of magnetic particles (nano- and micro-sized) were investigated. It was obtained that doping with Fe3O4 nanoparticles and applying of magnetic field during the polymerization process leads to a significant change of the local structure of elastomer. After filling the polymer with Fe3O4 nanoparticles the magnetic elastomer presents a mass fractal structure. The mass fractal dimension is decreasing in the magnetic elastomer polymerized in magnetic field. For the elastomer filled with a large amount of Fe microparticles (75 % particle concentration) a texture effect is detected; for the samples polymerized in magnetic field the texture effect is higher. Surface fractal property is obtained for all microparticle concentrations.

Computation of the Number of Neutrino Events Which Can Be Registered in Borexino Detector from the Sun Neutrino Flux with Energy E = 0.862 MeV

This paper gives an estimation of the number of neutrinos which can be registered in Borexino detector from the Sun neutrinos generated in reaction 7Be + e- 7Li + e with energy Ee = 0.862 MeV in the absence of neutrino oscillations. This number is supposed to be in the range Ntheor = 86.45 96.52 counts/(day · 100 t) in dependence on primary neutrino fluxes. Then ratios between the number of neutrinos Nexper registered in Borexino detector and counted numbers Ntheor are Nexper/Ntheor =0.49 0.54. This value is close enough to the same value obtained in 71Ga-71Ge experiments in the close energy region. The value Nexper/Ntheor obtained at the supposition that 13 0 and in the absence of the resonance effect approximately equals 0.67 and it is noticeably greater than the above value. Probably it means that the supposition that 13 0 is not justified and there can be a definite deposit of neutrinos.

Ion Exchange Behaviour of Ti, Zr, Hf, Nb and Ta as Homologues of Rf and Db in Mixed HF-Acetone Solutions

In order to optimize conditions for isolation and study of chemical properties of Rf and Db, we investigated sorption of their lighter homologues Ti, Zr, Hf, Nb and Ta, from HF solutions in water-miscible organic solvents using the Dowex 50X8 cation exchange (CIX) and AG 1X8 anion exchange (AIX) resins. We studied dependence of sorption on concentration of HF (0.1-25 mol/l) and acetone (1-13.6 mol/l). We found that using the AIX resins the distribution coefficients of Ti, Zr, Hf and Nb increased and those of Ta decreased with increasing content of acetone in HF solutions. The results indicated that in concentrated (> 3 mol/l) HF solutions containing acetone, group 4 elements formed MF73- (M = Ti, Zr, Hf) complexes whose stability decreased in the order of sorption Zr > Hf > Ti. Under the same conditions, group 5 elements predominantly formed complexes NbOF52- and TaF72- with stability considerably different, which decreased in sequence Nb > Ta. We found optimal conditions for separation of the elements using CIX and AIX chromatography. The advantages of studying chemical properties of Rf and Db in aqueous HF solutions mixed with organic solvents are briefly discussed.

Piecewise Smoothing with Two-Part Polynomial Scheme

The present work enhances a recently proposed method for segmentation and smoothing noisy data that used an autotracking piecewise reference points based on cubic model and splines. To overcome the issues with the application of reference points in approximation tasks a two-part polynomial scheme was elaborated. This work is a sequel of these results. Its goal is to show that due to the appropriate localization and assessment of the reference points, the local approximants of the detected segments can be not only constructed without the use of splines, but their number can also be decreased. The method is illustrated with real data.
