Abstract
The article aims to substantiate the tendency to solve the problem of the mineral and raw material base of non-ferrous metals due to the involvement of technogenic origin in substandard ...metal-containing raw materials. Critical analysis and systematization of new information on the current state of the mineral and raw materials base of non-ferrous metals and the environmental problems of mining associated with it. New data on the recovery and loss of metals in the process of ore dressing are presented. It is shown that the total value of metals in waste is comparable to the value of potential mineral resources in the bowels. The problems of the use of mining waste should be solved in a single package with environmental problems by creating a single technological cycle for the extraction and processing of industrial minerals of industrial waste, the use of which can make the development of industrial deposits economically viable. The practical significance of the work lies in the possibility of using best practices for non-ferrous metallurgy enterprises that are searching for ways to survive in the conditions of the establishment of market relations.
This paper is addressing the challenge related to understanding the experimental results obtained by Taylor dispersion technique when working under high pressure with supercritical carbon dioxide ...(CO2). We discuss typical experimental problems that arise when using the Taylor dispersion method for measuring diffusion coefficients in the supercritical fluids. The diffusion coefficients of the two samples in supercritical carbon dioxide were measured along the isobars at different temperatures. The diffusion coefficients of ethanol in supercritical CO2 have been measured in the temperature range from 304.15 to 343 K along the isobar

We have analyzed a data set taken over 2.76years live time with the Baikal neutrino telescope NT200. The goal of the analysis is to search for neutrinos from dark matter annihilation in the center of ...the Sun. Apart from the conventional annihilation channels bb¯, W+W- and τ+τ- we consider also the annihilation of dark matter particles into monochromatic neutrinos. From the absence of any excess of events from the direction of the Sun over the expected background, we derive 90% upper limits on the fluxes of muons and muon neutrinos from the Sun, as well as on the elastic cross sections of dark matter scattering on protons.
Abstract
The aim of the research was to create an effective method for producing transgenic wheat plants suitable for a wide range of promising varieties, both spring and winter crops. The plant ...material was cultivated at temperatures ranging from 4 to 25°C, either in the dark or in the light, with a 16-hour photoperiod (16/8 - day / night). Osram L36/77 FLUORA and F36W/33 Cool White lamps were used for lighting. The composition of all nutrient media included macroand micro-salts, vitamins B5, phytohormones and carbohydrates. The pH of the medium was adjusted to 5.8 before autoclaving. The medium was sterilized in an autoclave at pressure of 1.2 atmospheres for 15 minutes. An effective method of regeneration of transgenic wheat plants for ballistic transformation has been developed. Plants obtained by this method are phenotypically normal and fully fertile. The transgenic insertion of the target gene is transmitted to the offspring in accordance with Mendel’s laws. The transformation efficiency was high for all the studied varieties and ranged from 1.4 to 7.8%.
As a result of the identification based on the Hammerstein model of objects of the first stage of iron ore magnetic separation, the adequacy of the model is obtained. All results of the testing of ...the developed identification algorithms show that the subsystem of identification of the automated process control systems of processing plants based on the Hammerstein hybrid model allows to carry out satisfactory identification of objects and, as a consequence, to improve the quality of technological processes. The study of the influence of the coefficient of various typical links on the results of identification using orthogonal parallel and parallel-recursive Hammerstein models showed that these models allow considering the differences in the properties of identifiable objects adequately.
The transmission spectra of films of strontium titanate up to 200 nm thick produced on quartz glass substrates by the sol-gel method were investigated in the region of 200–1100 nm. The sol was ...prepared from strontium acetate, titanium tetraisopropoxide, acetic acid, and ethylene glycol monomethyl ether. The strontium titanate films were formed by successive deposition of five layers with intermediate drying of each layer and final heat treatment at temperatures in the range of 500–700

C. From analysis of the transmission spectra it was established that the obtained films are characterized by a wide forbidden band decreasing from 4.46 to 3.84 eV in the transition from x-ray amorphous films to crystalline films with refractive index of 1.996 (λ = 620 nm) due to the high packing density of up to 81.5% of that for monocrystalline strontium titanate.
Using data of multiangle spectrophotometry and spectral ellipsometry in the UV and visible ranges, spectra of the refractive indices and absorption coefficients and width of the forbidden band of ...one- and five-layer strontium titanate films obtained by the sol–gel method have been calculated. Layer-by-layer deposition of sol on quartz substrates, from one to five layers, leads to an increase in film porosity from 4 to 33%. This causes a decrease in the refractive indices in the middle part of the visible spectrum from 2.33 to 1.87, which leads to a decrease in the reflectance and an increase in the transmittance or transparency of five-layer films. With an increase in the heating temperature of such films from 500 to 750°C, a shift of the absorption band maximum from 239 to 253 nm takes place and the optical width of the forbidden band decreases from 4.63 to 4.20 eV. The absorption band maximum of the single-layer film falls on the wavelength of 252 nm, and its optical width of the forbidden band is 3.96 eV.

The prototyping phase of the BAIKAL-GVD project has been started in April 2011 with the deployment of a three string engineering array which comprises all basic elements and systems of the Gigaton ...Volume Detector (GVD) in Lake Baikal. In April 2012 the version of engineering array which comprises the first full-scale string of the GVD demonstration cluster had been deployed and operated during 2012. The first stage of the GVD-cluster which consists of three strings was deployed in April 2013. We review the prototyping phase of the BAIKAL-GVD project and describe the configuration and design of the 2013 engineering array.
