TL;DR: The properties of silica aerogel and other types of aerogels are described in this article, and basic information about their manufacture processes are presented, as well as their application in optics, nuclear physics, low-temperature physics, laser experiments, space investigations, microelectronics, electrical engineering, and acoustics as highly efficient heat insulators and trapping media for the analysis or purification of gas or liquid flows that pass through them.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used photodetector arrays sensitive in the wavelength range of 200-1100 nm to record spectra of gaseous and solid-phase flames, erosion plasmas of surface discharges, metals, semiconductors, dielectrics, micro- and nanoparticles, and heterogeneous media (powder mixtures and ceramics) at temperatures both lower and higher than the melting temperature.
Abstract: In the emission spectra of many objects, there are regions where the intensity distribution is similar to the blackbody spectrum. This allows one to determine the temperature by recording the emission spectrum and comparing it to a Planck spectrum. Experimental or calculated data on the emissivity of such objects are not necessary because the temperature is determined as a parameter of the distribution observed. This property characterizes the emission spectra of gaseous and solid-phase flames, erosion plasmas of surface discharges, metals, semiconductors, dielectrics, micro- and nanoparticles, and heterogeneous media (powder mixtures and ceramics) at temperatures both lower and higher than the melting temperature. Spectrometers with photodetector arrays sensitive in the wavelength range of 200–1100 nm are used to record spectra. Such spectrometers allow spectrum recording and determination of the radiator temperature in the temperature range of 800 K–140 kK within a time of ∼1 ms. The specific features of the method, examples of its application, measurement characteristics, unsolved problems, and prospects are discussed in the review.

Abstract: The URAGAN wide-aperture large-area multilayer muon hodoscope is developed for the NEVOD experimental complex of the Moscow Engineering Physics Institute. The hodoscope will be used to study atmospheric and heliospheric processes responsible for variations in the muon flux at the Earth’s surface. The structures of the detector and its system of data acquisition and processing are described. The data obtained during continuous sets of measurements in 2005–2006 using the first two supermodules of the setup are analyzed, and preliminary results of this analysis are discussed.

TL;DR: The DECOR coordinate detector as mentioned in this paper is a multilayer system of plastic streamer tube chambers located around a NEVOD Cerenkov water calorimeter, and the basic characteristics of the detector are as follows: the area is ∼100 m2, the angular resolution is ∼ 1° and the space resolution was ∼ 1 cm.
Abstract: A DECOR coordinate detector is a multilayer system of plastic streamer tube chambers located around a NEVOD Cerenkov water calorimeter. The basic characteristics of the detector are as follows: the area is ∼100 m2, the angular resolution is ∼1°, and the space resolution is ∼1 cm. The structure of the detector, data acquisition and trigger systems, and results obtained during the operation of a pilot assembly (8 chamber layers and a working area of 8.4 m2) are given.
