Magnetic and magneto-optical properties of CoFeCrSiB amorphous ribbons

In this paper we investigate the surface magnetic properties of as-quenched (AQ) CoFeCrBSi ribbons prepared by planar flow casting method with using magneto-optic Kerr effect (MOKE). Measured hysteresis loops in longitudinal and transversal configurations enable us to obtain the information of ribbons surface magnetic properties. Moreover, we suggest new magneto-optic method, which is based on measurements of magneto-optical effects depending on DC current flowing through the ribbon. Experimental data of AQ ribbons are then compared with the model, which describes the influence of incidence angle on magneto-optical angles.

Determining the statistical parameters of nonstationary stochastic processes

We construct estimators of the expectation of a nonstationary stochastic process with time-dependent variance. Limit relations are obtained for particular correlation dependences.Translated from Statisticheskie Metody, pp. 98–103, 1982.     

Asymmetry in the Multiprotein Systems of Molecular Biology

Signaling in living systems needs to achieve high specificity, to be reversible, and to achieve high signal to noise. Signaling mediated by multiprotein systems has evolved that avoids the requirement for high-affinity binary complexes that would be difficult to reverse and which, in the overcrowded cell, would lead to excessive noise in the system. Symmetrical structures are only occasionally formed. When they are, it is principally to colocate components, for example, the tyrosyl kinases of growth factors, where dimers form. Symmetry is, however, often broken, presumably to create more sensitivity and specificity in the signaling system by assembling other components, into higher-order multiprotein systems. The binding of a single heparin to two 1:1 FGF:FGFR complexes is an example, as is the binding of a single ligase to the Xrcc4 dimer, perhaps so creating a further DNA-binding site.     

Synthesis of pyrido[1,2-c][1,3]benzoxazines based on 1-benzyl-3-hydroxy-3-methyl-6-(2-benzyloxyphenyl)-4-piperidones

The stereomeric 1-benzyl-3-hydroxy-3-methyl-6e-(2-bemyloxyphenyl)-4-piperidones on debenzylation and subsequent reaction with formaldehyde are converted into cis- and trans-1,3,4-10b-tetrahydro-3-hydroxy-3-methyl-2-oxopyrido-[1,2-c][1,3]benzoxazines.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 124–127, January, 1991.     

Fourier-Galerkin numerical technique for solitary waves of fifth order Korteweg-de Vries equation

The present paper is aimed to display the performance of the Fourier-Galerkin technique developed earlier by the authors for numerical treatment of localized solutions in ²(-∞, ∞) for higher-order equations. The solitary-wave solution of the Kortweg-de Vries fifth order equation is obtained numerically and compared with approximate results of other authors.     

A generalization of Connor's inequality to t-designs with automorphisms

In this paper the incidence algebra for t-designs with automorphisms and the fundamental theorem discovered in [4] are exploited to obtain a generalization of Connor's inequality.     

Illumination of the shadow zone in a two-channel oceanic waveguide with a fine structure of sound speed inhomogeneities

The experimental data on the sound field structure, which were obtained by emitting a continuous pseudonoise signal (a midfrequency of 3.2 kHz) in a two-channel oceanic waveguide, are compared with the calculations performed by the wave program with allowance for the fine structure of the sound speed inhomogeneities. A considerable increase in the intensity of the sound field with a definite angular spectrum is observed in the upper channel in the first shadow zone, and, in the experiment, the increase begins nearer to the sound source than predicted by the wave and ray calculations for a smooth sound speed profile. These features of the field structure are explained by the illumination of the shadow zone by the regular scattering of signals from highly anisotropic fine-structure inhomogeneities of the sound speed profile, which are clearly pronounced in the region of the given oceanic experiment.     

Ultrasonic attenuation in a LiIO3 crystal

The temperature dependences of the attenuation of longitudinal acoustic waves along the x axis of a LiIO₃ crystal are studied experimentally by the method of Bragg diffraction of light by ultrasound. The measurements are performed in the temperature range from 215 to 335 K at frequencies of 400–690 MHz. Above 260 K, the attenuation is found to exhibit a frequency-independent growth of a relaxational character, which is used to calculate the enthalpy of the activation of ionic motion in the direction normal to the hexagonal axis. In addition, resonance attenuation peaks are observed; as the frequency increases, the peaks are shifted toward lower temperatures. A phenomenological model is proposed to explain the origin of the resonance absorption.
