Self-similar solutions and large time asymptotics for the dissipative quasi-geostrophic equation

We analyze the well-posedness of the initial value problem for the dissipative quasi-geostrophic equations in the subcritical case. Mild solutions are obtained in several spaces with the right homogeneity to allow the existence of self-similar solutions. While the only small self-similar solution in the strong L^p{\cal L}^{p} space is the null solution, infinitely many self-similar solutions do exist in weak- L^p{\cal L}^{p} spaces and in a recently introduced [7] space of tempered distributions. The asymptotic stability of solutions is obtained in both spaces, and as a consequence, a criterion of self-similarity persistence at large times is obtained.     

Specific features of the effect of annealing on the transmission spectra of GaP:N light-emitting diodes

The effect of annealing in a hydrogen atmosphere on the transmission spectra of GaP:N light-emitting diodes at temperatures of 550, 570, and 590 °C has been investigated. Temperature-induced rearrangement of defects has been observed. The band gap of the material studied is determined. The dependence of the transmission and difference transmission spectra on the annealing temperature and the effect of annealing on the electroluminescence spectra are shown.     

NMR study of products of thermal transformation of substituted N-aryl-o-quinoneimines

Products of thermal transformation of substituted N-aryl-o-quinoneimines were studied using NMR spectroscopy. The formation of 4aH-phenoxazine, which was further dimerized by the Diels—Alder reaction, was established.     

Excitation of localized spatial structures of different symmetry in a system of two thin films

We consider spatial dissipative solitons arising in the system of two nonlinear thin films which interact resonantly with light. Symmetric and nonsymmetric solitons and methods of their exciting and switching are studied.     

Moving and oscillating transversely one-dimensional laser solitons

Transversely one-dimensional moving and oscillating solitons in a wide-aperture laser with saturable absorber with fast (inertialess) nonlinearity are found by numerical simulation. The regions of existence of such solitons and of their complexes are presented.     

Areal objects and the problem of the λ term in the theory of gravitation

The following areal objects are considered: an ether thread contracting two material points and a multidimensional ether fibre in the pseudo-Euclidean world of events. An ether space-time model with an arbitrarily determined Riemannian metric is constructed and the problem of the λ term in Einstein equations is discussed in this regard.
