Spectral expansions of some representations of Lie groups

We investigate representations of classical noncompact Lie groups induced by representations of the maximal parabolic subgroup. Formulas are obtained for 5O₀(2p, 2q)/U(p, q) and U(2p, 2q) Sp(p, q).Translated from Ukrainskii Mathematicheskii Zhurnal, Vol. 42, No. 1, pp. 128–131, January, 1990.     

Investigation of preheating of laser thermonuclear targets

The preheating level of the thermonuclear fuel and of the gas-compressing shell is the main criterion of the target-compression efficiency in experiments on laserdriven thermonuclear fusion. This paper contains the result of investigations of electronic, radiative, and impact preheating in experiments on compression and heating of hlgh-aspect shell targets in the Del'fin-l laser-derived thermonuclear facility. A procedure, based on analysis of the epithermal emission of the plasma, is considered for measuring the target preheating by fast electrons. The radiative and impact preheating of compressing shells in DD gas are estimated. The results of the investigation demonstrate the high degree of adiabaticity of the compression of the thermonuclear fuel in experiments with the Del'fin-l facility.Nuclear Plasma Laboratory of the Lebedev Physics Institute.

Bahadur effectiveness of Watson-Darling goodness-of-fit tests

The rough asymptotic behavior of the probability of large deviations is found for Watson-Darling goodness-of-fit tests, which are centered versions of Kolomogorov-Smirnov statistics. Their Bahadur effectiveness is calculated and conditions for local asymptotic optimality for the alternative of translation are studied.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

2-Amino-4,4-disubstituted-5-carboxymethyl-Δ2-1,3,4-oxadiazolin-4-ium chlorides and their recyclization in acetic anhydride

2-Methylamino-4,4-disubstituted-5-carboethoxymethyl-²-1,3,4-oxadiazolin -4-ium chlorides were obtained from the reaction of 1,1-disubstituted-4-methylsemicarbazides with ethyl propiolate in the presence of hydrochloric acid. After hydrolysis of the ester these chlorides recyclize in acetic anhydride to 1-substituted-3-acetoxy-1H-pyrazoles. The difference in the direction of ring opening with acetic anhydride in the betaines of 1,3,4-oxadiazolin-5-acetic acids and their thia-analogs has been demonstrated.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1685–1688, 1992.     

Mechanism of breakdown development in a gas in a subthreshold HF field

The development of a breakdown wave in subthreshold HF fields is considered for the condition that the field energy density exceed the plasma energy density E²/4 > nT. It is shown that the breakdown wave propagation mechanism is controlled by HF diffusion with a coefficient _iE²/4en. A model of breakdown development along the direction of the linear field polarization is constructed on the basis of this mechanism.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 8, pp. 55–60, August, 1989.     

Effect of hydrothermal treatment on catalytic properties of superhigh-silica zeolites

The effect of hydrothermal treatment of decationized superhigh-silica zeolite on the mechanism of n-hexane conversion has been studied. It has been established that thermosteam modification sharply decreases the cracking activity and increases the selectivity to aromatization reactions. Zeolite acidity markedly decreases, but its crystal structure does not become amorphous.
