Small and middle size surface detectors measuring extensive air showers (EAS) initiated by primary cosmic rays (PCR) incident on terrestrial atmosphere have been in operation for the last 50
years. ...Their main goal is to explore the “knee” in all particle spectrum to solve the problem of cosmic ray (CR) origin and acceleration. The recent achievements of atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes and X-ray space laboratories, establishing the supernova remnants (SNRs) as a source of hadronic cosmic rays, pose stringent conditions on the quality of EAS evidence. After establishing the existence of the “knee” itself, the most pronounced result from EAS studies is the rigidity dependent shift of the knee position to the highest energies. This feature was first observed by separation of the primary flux in different mass groups in MAKET-ANI, EAS-TOP and KASCADE experiments. The MAKET-ANI detector is placed on Mt. Aragats (Armenia) at 3200
m above the sea level (40°25′N, 44°15′E). More than 1.3

A measurement of the derivative (∂ lnF2/∂ lnx)Q2≡−λ(x,Q2) of the proton structure function F2 is presented in the low x domain of deeply inelastic positron–proton scattering. For 5×10−5⩽x⩽0.01 and ...Q2⩾1.5GeV2, λ(x,Q2) is found to be independent of x and to increase linearly with lnQ2.

The effect of α
2
-adrenoblocker mesedin (2-(2-methylamino-4-thiazolyl)-1,4-benzodioxane hydrochloride) on the content of oxidative stress biomarkers in the brain tissue was well studied in ischemic ...disorders. The aim of this study is to reveal the possible mechanisms of the antihypoxic effect of mesedin. The quantitative changes of the final product of lipid peroxidation (LP)—malondialdehyde (MDA) and carbonyl derivatives of proteins — aldehyde-dinitrophenylhydrazones of neutral character (ADNPuv), ketone-dinitro-phenylhydrazones of neutral character (KDNPuv), aldehyde-dinitrophenylhydrazones of basic character (ADNPvs) and ketone-dinitrophenylhydrazones of basic character (KDNPvs) were studied in the brain tissue of rats (
n
= 56) under the condition of experimental ischemia caused by the ligation of the right common carotid artery. The study showed that one of the possible mechanisms of antihypoxic action of mesedin is its ability to prevent the accumulation of malondialdehyde and to limit protein carbonylation in brain ischemia. The data received demonstrates that mesedin could serve as a potential medicine for the correction of cerebrovascular ischemic disorders, for the reason that along with improving cerebral blood flow and preventing the development of morphological shifts and neurobehavioral disturbances in brain local ischemia, the medicine also mitigates the aggressive action of oxidative stress while protecting the brain tissue from the consequences of hypoxia.
