Results of research and the complex assessment of beech forest natural seed regeneration on clearcuts of wet beech sites of Ukrainian Carpathians are presented.
The exclusive photoproduction reactions $\gamma p \to J/\psi(1S) p$ and
$\gamma p \to \psi(2S) p$ have been measured at an $ep$ centre-of-mass energy
of 318 GeV with the ZEUS detector at HERA using ...an integrated luminosity of 373
pb$^{-1}$. The measurement was made in the kinematic range $30 < W < 180$ GeV,
$Q^2 < 1$ GeV$^2$ and $|t| < 1$ GeV$^2$, where $W$ is the photon--proton
centre-of-mass energy, $Q^2$ is the photon virtuality and $t$ is the squared
four-momentum transfer at the proton vertex. The decay channels used were
$J/\psi(1S) \to \mu^+ \mu^-$, $\psi(2S) \to \mu^+ \mu^-$ and $\psi(2S) \to
J/\psi(1S) \pi^+ \pi^-$ with subsequent decay $J/\psi(1S) \to \mu^+ \mu^-$. The
ratio of the production cross sections, $R = \sigma_{\psi(2S)} /
\sigma_{J/\psi(1S)}$, has been measured as a function of $W$ and $|t|$ and
compared to previous data in photoproduction and deep inelastic scattering and
with predictions of QCD-inspired models of exclusive vector-meson production,
which are in reasonable agreement with the data.
The passive Q-switching of 1.66-{mu}m Er{sup 3+}:YAlO{sub 3} lasers with the help of some saturable absorbers is studied. Giant 200-ns pulses are generated by using a Cr{sup 2+}:ZnSe crystal as a ...saturable absorber. (control of laser radiation parameters)

Leading-logarithm parton-shower Monte Carlo calculations interfaced to the Lund string fragmentation model describe the data reasonably well in the whole range measured. Next-to-leading-order QCD calculations based on fragmentation functions, FFs, extracted from
