At present, parallelization technology is a dynamically evolving area in software development. Using parallelization to adapt software to existing multicore and multiprocessor systems, one can ...considerably increase the computational performance and significantly reduce the processing speed for big data arrays. High speed of software operation is important both for real-time data preprocessing and data analysis at all subsequent stages, including data visualization. This is the key requirement for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiments. In this article, the results of using parallelization technology for analyzing LHCb physics data, with the jobs implemented in OSTAP based on pathos and pyROOT, are given.
A simple way of deducing the two-body potential from a given two- or three-body wave function is suggested. This method makes it possible to numerically obtain an unknown potential acting between the ...particles
A
and
B
when we know the potentials of their interaction with a third particle
C
and know the characteristics of the three-body bound state (
ABC
). Using the examples of the systems (

, we show that even very simple three-body wave functions constructed on the basis of the general reasoning and the knowledge of the binding energies and sizes of these systems, allow us to deduce reasonable and realistic

potentials. Within this approach, any artificially constructed wave function automatically becomes an exact solution of the corresponding Schrödinger equation with the
AB
-potential that the method produces. This fact suggests yet another possible application of this method when the
AB
-potential is known. In such a case we can find a bound state solution of the Schrödinger equation by looking for such values of the free parameters in an artificially constructed wave function that minimize the difference between the deduced and the exact
AB
-potentials.

We have studied silicidation of powders of carbide phases in the Ti–Ta–C and Ti–Zr–C systems in a gaseous silicon monoxide atmosphere at 1400°C. The results demonstrate that the silicidation of the ...carbide phases in the Ti–Ta–C and Ti–Zr–C systems has a selective character. Silicidation selectivity shows up in that, in carbide mixtures containing up to 50 mol % TiC, the only siliciding treatment products are zirconium and tantalum silicide phases: ZrSi, Ta

In this paper, we are going to exhibit the system performance using the single, double and three-electrode quantum-dot semiconductor optical amplifier as an intensity modulator (3E-QD-SOA-IM) of the ...adaptively modulated optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (AMOOFDM) signals in the intensity-modulation direct-detection passive optical network (IMDD-PON) systems. Moreover, to compare the bit-rate versus transmission distance of the proposed fiber link model when using both configurations multi-electrode semiconductor optical amplifier intensity-modulator (ME-SOA-IM) and multi-electrode quantum-dot semiconductor optical amplifier intensity-modulator (ME-QD-SOA-IM), to study the improvement of the transmission capacity, distance reach and power efficiency when applying the proposed configurations for optical access networks for distances ranging from 20 km up to 120 km. The three-electrode configuration solved the nonlinearity of the two-electrode configuration and offered a considerably wider range of optimum operating conditions to achieve up to 35 Gbps. Furthermore, the 3E-QD-SOA-IM showed a better performance over the 3E-SOA-IM over all the 120 km, and a 5 Gbps enhancement in the bitrate with a 20 dB less optical input power at 20 km.

An enhanced-performance composite antifriction material was created based on iron-containing material. Features of the structure formation of glass–metal composite materials produced from carbonyl ...iron powder by powder metallurgy methods were considered. The relationship between the method of fabricating the material and the features of its microstructure was investigated, and so was the relationship between the composition and structure of the resulting composite materials and their properties. The obtained samples were examined by microstructural analysis with a VEGA 3 TESCAN SEM microscope.
