Integral Equations in the Problem on Longitudinal Slot Cone Excitation

The work deals with a problem on longitudinal slot cone excitation. An algorithm is given for reducing the problem to solving the first kind singular integral equations. The algorithm is based on using Debye potentials and Kontorovich-Lebedev integral transform. Dirichlet and Neumann boundary problems for Debye potentials are considered. Singular equations are obtained, which have logarithmic and Cauchy singularities.

A Two-Dimensional Model for Pulse Propagation in the Physical Environment: Proper Truncation of Computational Domain in the Finite-Difference Method

The paper presents a two-dimensional model of radiation and propagation of pulse waves in a nondispersive medium characterized by arbitraryly varying electric parameters and . The problem formulation is sufficiently general; throughout the paper we will use the term 'physical environment' to mean natural and man-made media and objects surrounding humans in their everyday activity. In other words, the approach developed permits analyzing impulse propagation both in natural and urban environment. Special attention is paid to the problems of correct truncation of the computational domain of the finite-difference method being among a few ones providing solutions to such complicated problems.

The possibility of super-long meteor-burst propagation by the dual wave reflection from meteor trails and Earth surface is considered. The Earth surface reflection is assumed to be as smooth one. The joint reception area concept is introduced. The duty cycle for super long path sharply decreases as the distance increase and it is less than 0.1% for the 400 km path length.

Interrelation between Two-Parametric Models of Random Signals with Limited Energy in Different Orthonormal Bases

An interrelation between two-parametric models of random signals with limited energy in different orthonormal bases is established. Based on this result, interrelations between two-parametric models of their samples and of the correlation functions of these signal components are determined. These interrelations are obtained by using the mathematical apparatus of the Hilbert random process spaces over the Hilbert space of samples of the Hilbert space of their weighted samples. The energy characteristics of two-parametric models of random signals in arbitrary orthonormal bases are introduced and their interrelation is determined.

Simulation of Error Analysis in a Digital Frequency Meter for Meteorological Signals

The structure design of a digital frequency meter for meteorological signals is analyzed for the case of coherent signal packets . The errors due to discrete data taking are studied, and ways of reducing their magnitude are suggested through increase in the number of frequency channels and interpolated corrections of the maximum likelihood estimates. Mathematical modeling is used to obtain and display the dependences of the root-mean-square error of frequency measurements on the number of pulses in a packet, the number of frequency channels, repetition frequency of the processed pulses and the signal-to-noise ratio.

Nonlinear Surface Polaritons in a Two-Dimensional Electron System Placed Into a Quantizing Magnetic Field

Nonlinear surface polaritons (NSP) are theoretically investigated in an isolated two-dimensional electron system (2DES) arranged at the boundary between linear and nonlinear media and placed in an external quantizing magnetic field directed parallel to the 2DES. It is assumed that the nonlinear medium dielectric permittivity depends on the tangential component of the electric field only. It is shown that under the integer quantum Hall effect conditions all NSP characteristics are quantized magnitudes. It is found that the NSP spectrum contains two NSP modes – high-frequency and low-frequency ones. It is shown that the NSP may exist only in the case when the value of the electric field tangential component at the boundary is less than certain critical value. It is found that the high-frequency mode of the NSP undergoes the resonant interaction with the surface polariton existing in the vicinity of the cyclotron resonance subharmonic.

Efficiency Optimization of a High-Power O-Type TWT on a Irregular Corrugated Waveguide

A self-consistent two-dimensional nonlinear theory has been formulated of a relativist O-type TWT with slow-wave structure TWT. This structure represents an arbitrarily-irregular smooth waveguide in which the electron interaction forces are averaged. Equations of excitation have been derived by the coordinate transformation procedure. A solution to the problem of optimizing the relativist O-type TWT efficiency has been found using the atomic functions to approximate the sought-for optimal slow-wave structure profile. A new mechanism for the efficiency-optimized interaction has been disclosed, enabling the process of phase synchronized focusing of an electronic packet (its center is coincident with the nodal point of field forces) to be sequentially repeated and the power to be extracted from an electron bunch (the mode of the bunch is kept at a maximum of the retarding field phase).

Effect of Microwave Irradiation on Biological Objects

The overview and the analysis of extensive literature evidence for the effects of low-intensity electromagnetic fields (EMF) of microwave band on biological objects are given. The EMF effects are considered at different levels of organization of biological systems: molecular, subcellular and cellular. Some data on the microwave influence on a whole organism are presented. It is shown that the effects of low-intensity microwave irradiation are displayed at all levels of biological system organization. In the author's point of view, of particular significance in determining the response of eucaryotic organisms to irradiation is the reaction of cell nucleus. This reaction is specifically judged from the changes in the bioelectric properties of nuclei and chromatin. The hypothesis of one of the authors as to the role of intrinsic electromagnetic radiation of the nucleus in controlling the cell response to external EMF is considered.

Effect of Electromagnetic Radiation and Temperature on Wheat Seed Viability

The influence of electromagnetic radiation (EMR) of microwave (MW) or EHF ranges and He-Ne laser rays on thermal stability of wheat seeds was investigated. The energetic dose density was common for all the types of radiation under study, being 840 mJ/cm2 or 126 mJ/cm2 in different sets of experiments. The seeds were warmed-up in a water thermostat at 52 oC for 20 min. The EMR effect was examined prior to and after the seed warming-up with different time intervals (5, 60 min and 24 hours) between the impacts of the above factors. The seed reaction was judged from the germination percentage. The results obtained suggest the EMR ability to modify the thermal stability of wheat seeds. The protective effect was observed for the seeds being irradiated after warming-up. In some cases the seed irradiation prior to warming-up was conducive to the sensibilization effect. The similarities in the seed reaction to EMR with different wavelengths but the same energetic dose density were revealed. The present study can be regarded as a model of reactions occurring not only in t he seeds but also in other biological objects, including human organism. This should be taken into account in using a variety of physiotherapy methods.
