Aziridinylketones and their cyclic anils. 12

We have measured the PMR spectra of 5, 7-diaryl-1, 4-diazabicyclo[4. ].O]hept-4-enes. We have studied the structure of the 5-(4-nitrophenyl)-7-phenyl derivative by x-ray diffraction. We show that the six-membered heterocycle has the half-chair form. The 6-H and 7-H protons of the aziridine ring are trans, while the 7-aryl is exo relative to the six-membered ring. Introduction of substituents into the aromatic ring has practically no effect on the geometry of the bicycle.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1117–1124, August, 1994.For Communication 11, see [1].     

Experimental investigation of explosive plasma antennas

Explosion-produced plasma jets formed in free spece are experimentally investigated. The feasibility of emitting pulsed electromagnetic signals by plasma jets is shown, and the emitting conditions are studied. Comparison is made between the results of experiments with short and long plasma jets. When the jet passes through the field of a helix, a short-term increase in the emitted signal is detected. A linear parametric model of interaction between the plasma jet and an exciting electromagnetic signal is proposed. The operating performance of instrumentation developed for the investigation is presented.     

Trends in sorption preconcentration combined with noble metal determination.

Nowadays much attention is being paid to the determination of trace amounts of noble metals in geological, industrial, biological and environmental samples. The most promising techniques, such as inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES), inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS) are characterized by high sensitivity. However, the accurate determination of trace noble metals has been limited by numerous interferences generated from the presence of matrix elements. To decrease, or eliminate, these interferences, the sorption preconcentration of noble metals is often used prior to their instrumental detection. A great number of hyphenated methods of noble metal determination using sorption preconcentration have been developed. This review describes the basic types of available sorbents, preconcentration procedures and preparations of the sorbent to the subsequent determination of noble metals. The specific features of instrumental techniques and examples of ETAAS, FAAS, ICP-AES, ICP-MS determinations after the sorption preconcentration of noble metals are considered. The references cited here were selected mostly from the period 1996 - 2006.     

Adaptive classification method and measurement of intermittent random process characteristics

Results are presented of an analytic construction and investigation of adaptive data classification algorithms for intermittent turbulence. A decision making rule is presented, relationships are derived to estimate the classification accuracy. A three-level procedure is described for processing the intermittency, including the calculation algorithms for the initial point, self-teaching, and optimal classification. It is shown that the method proposed permits realization of total automation of intermittency data processing.Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Prikladnaya Mekhanika, No. 18, pp. 119–123, 1987.     

The Limiting Possibilities of Miniaturization of Open-Resonator Mirrors

Using the representation of the field of a quasioptical beam in the form of expansion over plane waves, we derive an expression determining the minimum possible size of mirrors of an open resonator (OR) in which the lowest mode with small energy losses exists. To verify the obtained expression, we study experimentally the field distribution in a semisymmetric OR using the probe method. In this case, the diameter of the scattering probe was chosen on the basis of the equation derived. The difference between the measured and calculated field distributions was smaller than 8%. It is shown that the diameter of the field spot on the OR mirrors cannot be smaller than the wavelength of a microwave oscillator. The attempts to focus a Gaussian beam to a size smaller than the wavelength lead to an increase in the diameter of the field spot.     

Nontrivial manifestation of clustering in fission of heavy nuclei at low and middle excitations

An analysis of the preferable fission path manifesting itself as a fine structure of the total kinetic energy-mass distribution of the fission fragments compelled us to put forward an absolutely new shape of the fissioning system on the descent from the fission barrier. It is a multicomponent nuclear molecule constituted by two magic clusters and a torus-like neck between.
