An approach to calculating multipole approximations of the gravitational potential of small celestial bodies with an irregular mass distribution is demonstrated for the asteroid (16) Psyche as an ...example.
Data on the reaction γp→K^{+}Λ from the CLAS experiments are used to derive the leading multipoles, E_{0+}, M_{1-}, E_{1+}, and M_{1+}, from the production threshold to 2180 MeV in 24 slices of the ...invariant mass. The four multipoles are determined without any constraints. The multipoles are fitted using a multichannel L+P model that allows us to search for singularities and to extract the positions of poles on the complex energy plane in an almost model-independent method. The multipoles are also used as additional constraints in an energy-dependent analysis of a large body of pion and photoinduced reactions within the Bonn-Gatchina partial wave analysis. The study confirms the existence of poles due to nucleon resonances with spin parity J^{P}=1/2^{-}, 1/2^{+}, and 3/2^{+} in the region at about 1.9 GeV.
In his book, Vyacheslav Nikonov shows the origins of the modern world and traces the chronologies and histories of peoples and countries. Nikonov discusses the main centers of influence and forces ...that shape the world in which we live. The world demonstrates a variety of development models shaped by the national, regional, historical, religious and other aspects of each country. The center of gravity of world development is shifting from West to East, from North to South, from developed economies to ??developing ones. Thirty years ago, Western countries accounted for 80% of the world economy; now it is less than half. Asia, already home to most of humanity, will become a global leader in the coming decades. What does this mean? What will the world be like and what place will Russia take in it? Will American hegemony continue? Will China become a superpower? Will Europe become a museum for tourists from other continents? History has resumed its course and the world is rushing towards an unstoppable diversity.

Over the last two decades, the scientific community and industry have made huge efforts to develop environmental protection technologies. In particular, the scarcity of drinking water has prompted the investigation of several physico-chemical treatments, and synergistic effects have been observed in hyphenated techniques. Herein, we report the first example of water treatment under simultaneous hydrodynamic cavitation and plasma discharge with the intense generation of radicals, UV light, shock waves and charged particles. This highly reactive environment is well suited to the bulk treatment of polluted water (i.e. E. coli disinfection and organic pollutant degradation). We have developed a new prototype and have efficiently applied this hybrid technology to water disinfection and the complete degradation of methanol in water with the aim of demonstrating its scalability. We have analyzed the mechanisms of water disinfection under the abovementioned conditions and verified them by measuring cavitation noise spectra and plasma emission spectra. We have also used the degradation of textile dyes and methanol solutions as an indicator for the formation of radicals.

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) are promising, environmentally friendly energy sources. Many works are devoted to the study of materials, individual aspects of SOFC operation, and the development of ...devices based on them. However, there is no work covering the entire spectrum of SOFC concepts and designs. In the present review, an attempt is made to collect and structure all types of SOFC that exist today. Structural features of each type of SOFC have been described, and their advantages and disadvantages have been identified. A comparison of the designs showed that among the well-studied dual-chamber SOFC with oxygen-ion conducting electrolyte, the anode-supported design is the most suitable for operation at temperatures below 800 °C. Other SOFC types that are promising for low-temperature operation are SOFC with proton-conducting electrolyte and electrolyte-free fuel cells. However, these recently developed technologies are still far from commercialization and require further research and development.
The problem of the motion of a heavy point along an inclined plane that rotates uniformly around the vertical is considered. The area filled with non-isolated relative equilibria is determined, its ...dependence on the parameters of the problem – the angular velocity, the angle of inclination of the plane and the angle of friction – is studied. The stability of the studied relative equilibria is discussed.
The inertial characteristics of celestial bodies can be calculated using their triangle partitions based on photometric observations. Such partitions can be refined along with the accumulation of ...necessary information. In this regard, the question arises to what extent the approximations of the inertial characteristics of celestial bodies, in particular, the approximations of the components of the Euler–Poinsot tensor of different orders, are susceptible to the choice of such partitions. Such components enter into the expansion of the gravitational potential in harmonic polynomials. In this paper, for some small celestial bodies, a comparison of such coefficients is carried out as coarse partitions are replaced with finer ones.
For asteroid (433) Eros, a multipole representation of the gravitational potential is determined up to multipoles of the fourth order. The obtained expression for the potential is used in ...constructing the areas of possible motion of the spacecraft in the vicinity of the celestial body under consideration.

The problem of motion of a point particle on the surface of a homogeneous gravitating ball with a spherical cavity is considered. It is assumed that the body rotates uniformly around its axis of ...symmetry. At the same time, it is assumed that a particle located on the outer or inner (inside the cavity) surface of the body, in addition to the force of gravity, is affected by dry friction. The gravitational properties inside the cavity and outside the ball are described. The dependence of the existence, bifurcations, and stability of the relative equilibria of a point particle on the outer or inner body surface on the parameters of the problem is studied. The results obtained both analytically and numerically are presented in the form of bifurcation diagrams. The research is motivated by the possible existence of cavities or mass concentrations (mascons) in large and small celestial bodies.
