Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, it was proved that the counterterm for an arbitrary 4-loop Feynman diagram in an arbitrary model is calculable within the minimal subtraction scheme in terms of rational numbers and the Riemann ζ-function in a finite number of steps via a systematic "algebraic" procedure involving neither integration of elementary, special, or any other functions, nor expansions in and summation of infinite series of any kind.

Using these partitions we estimate the decay of velocity auto-correlation function and prove the central limit theorem of probability theory and Donsker's Invariance Principle for Lorentz Gas with periodic configuration of scatterers.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the eyelotron auto-resonance maser is the most effective free electron laser (Doppertron) at milimetere and submillimetre wavelengths.
Abstract: As follows from theory, supported by experiment, if the electron energy grows to ∼ 1 McV the gyroton preserves its capability to produce single-mode radiation in the millimetere wave range with rather high efficiency. If the electron energy is ultra-relativistic (≳ 1 McV), preference must be given to the eyelotron auto-resonance maser, which is, in principle, the most effective type of free electron laser (‘ doppertron’) at milimetere and submillimetre wavelengths.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, a review is devoted to an examination of quantum systems possessing stochasticity in the classical limit, and the problem of quantization of systems fulfilling the stochasticallyity condition is connected both with a wide class of problems which are physical in principle (destruction of quantum numbers due to interactions, statistics of the energy spectrum, kinetic description and so on) and with applications (molecular dynamics, interaction of atoms and molecules with a strong radiation field and such on).

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present results of a comprehensive analysis that included weaker bursts, which indicate that the presence of lines in the γ-burst spectra is a characteristic rather than an exceptional feature.
Abstract: Venera 11 and Venera 12 have detected emission and absorption lines in the energy spectra of many γ-ray bursts. The similarity between the spectral features observed during different events reveals the similarity in physical conditions and processes which occur within the burst sources. These lines are the most convincing evidence that the γ-burst sources contain neutron stars with a strong magnetic field. We present here results of a comprehensive analysis that included weaker bursts, which indicate that the presence of lines in the γ-burst spectra, in particular of absorption lines in the region 30–70 keV is a characteristic rather than an exceptional feature.

TL;DR: The three-dimensional structure of catalase from the fungus Penicillium vitale is analysed and the haem group has been identified, and the active site localized using the specific inhibitor 3-amino-1:2:4-triazole.
Abstract: Catalase (H2O2 : H2O2-oxidoreductase, EC 1.11.1.6) is an enzyme that catalyses decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to oxygen and water, and is present in all aerobic cells. All catalases studied so far are tetrameric, each subunit (molecular weight ∼60,000) being formed by a single polypeptide chain with haemin as a prosthetic group1,2. Catalase is one of the most efficient enzymes known, resulting in reaction rates approaching the diffusion-controlled limit. Knowledge of the three-dimensional structure of catalase should help to increase our understanding of its mechanism of action, which is at present rather poor. It will also be of interest to compare the structure of catalase with that of other haem proteins, particularly from the point of view of evolutionary relationships. Thus, we have now analysed the three-dimensional structure of catalase from the fungus Penicillium vitale. From an electron density map at 3.5 A resolution it was possible to trace the polypeptide chain. The haem group has been identified, and the active site localized using the specific inhibitor 3-amino-1:2:4-triazole. P. vitale catalase subunits have been shown to be composed of three domains, with α + β, α and α/β type secondary structures respectively. Comparison with the structure of beef liver catalase3 shows that the latter enzyme lacks the C-terminal domain of the P. vitale enzyme.
