Features of the tomography of the marine crust are described, based on the use of coastal laser strainmeters and broadband low-frequency underwater acoustic projectors. This approach is useful in ...studying the structure and composition of the marine crust in shelf areas, including ones covered with ice without destroying it. Numerous experimental studies have established that at sea depths equal to or less than half the length of a hydroacoustic wave generated by low-frequency underwater acoustic projectors, the hydroacoustic energy is mainly transformed into Rayleigh-type surface waves that radiate through the bottom on the hydroacoustic source–coast path.

The construction, digitizing electronics and results of test with cosmic rays of cylindrical drift chamber for CMD-3 detector are described. To uniformly fill the sensitive volume small hexagonal ...cells were chosen. The coordinate along the wire is measured by charge division technique. A resolution in the R–ϕ-plane of better than 110μm and about 3mm along the wire as well as a dE/dx resolution of about 12% were obtained in cosmic test runs.

On the basis of experimental data obtained during a comprehensive experiment in Vityaz Bay of the Sea of Japan using onshore laser strainmeters and a low-frequency hydroacoustic emitter generating ...complex phase-manipulated signals with a central frequency of 33 Hz, we developed the basic principles of contactless tomography of the Earth’s crust in the shelf regions of various seas, including those covered by ice, making it possible to determine efficiently the structure and composition of the upper Earth’s crust under seas.
A method for experimental studies of crustal structure and composition in marine areas during warm and cold seasons is described. The method employs an electromagnetic low-frequency hydroacoustic ...transmitter, which generates complex phase-shift keyed signals (M-sequences) in water with a center frequency of 33 Hz, and a mobile laser strainmeter with a measuring arm length of 6 m. In an area with a sea depth of 14 m, the transmitter was lowered to a depth of 12 m. Processing of the obtained experimental data revealed five arrivals of transmitted phase-shift keyed signals to the laser strainmeter, which propagated along the layer boundaries of the upper crust of marine areas. The propagation velocities of these signals have been determined. In winter, they are approximately 2600, 2140, 1750, 1550, and 1280 m/s; in spring, 2250, 1950, 1700, 1480, and 1300 m/s. The calculated velocities agree well with the model data. Future results will make it possible to create a technology to remotely study crustal structure and composition in shelf zones, including shelf zones covered by ice, without destroying it.

The strategy for the development of nuclear power presupposes the construction of thermal water-cooled reactors and fast reactors 13. At present, water moderated and cooled power reactors are the ...foundation of our countrys nuclear power. The organizations of the State Corporation Rosatom have developed designs for new-generation reactor setups AES-2006 and VVER-TOI, which are the result of evolutionary development and improvement of operating water moderated and cooled power reactors, which proved their reliability in thousands of reactor-years of accident-free operation. To secure the possibility of increasing the power and validating the serviceability of new passive safety systems for VVER, a large-scale program of thermophysical and experimental studies has been completed.
