Subsection: OPTICAL WAVE PROPAGATION

Abstract >>
The solar radiative fluxes in the cloudy and cloudless atmosphere are calculated taking into account multiple scattering and absorption. The cloudy conditions observed in Tomsk and Volgograd regions are considered. A comparison between the fluxes calculated with different water vapor continuum absorption models, such as the MT_CKD empirical model, commonly used in the atmospheric simulation, and the continuum model based on the CAVIAR experimental data, is carried out. The water vapor continuum impact on the shortwave radiative fluxes in the presence of different cloud types is estimated.

Abstract >>
Quantitative estimates of the distribution of absorbed solar radiation and temperature effects in the background atmosphere and under conditions of extreme smoke haze in Siberia from empirical data and numerical modeling are presented. Vertical profiles of the aerosol characteristics are formed on the basis of an empirical model constructed from the results of airborne sounding of the angular scattering coefficient and the concentration of absorbing substance at different altitudes. It is shown that under smoke haze conditions the radiative effect of aerosol particles with a high soot content on the daily influx of solar radiation in the central part of the smoke layer exceeds 50%. The change in air temperature due to the absorption of solar radiation during the daylight time is approximately 2.5-5.5 K at variations in the smoke aerosol optical thickness in the range 2 £ smoke(0.55 m) £ 4.

Abstract >>
The variability of the optical-microphysical properties of the mixed wood smoke is studied in the Large Aerosol Chamber of IAO SB RAS (volume 1800 m3) during smoke aging for six days with periodic changes in the relative humidity of air within the range 45-95%. The dynamics of the size distributions and complex refractive indices for the ultrafine, fine, and coarse particles, their effective radii, lidar scattering parameter, and the single scattering albedo in the visible are analyzed on the basis of the results of detailed nephelometric measurements of the angular scattering coefficients and solution of the inverse problem. It is found that both quantitative and qualitative features of the variations in the optical-microphysical parameters vary significantly with the air humidity at different stages of the smoke aging. The key factors of the mixed smoke variability are the physical-chemical heterogeneity of three fractions of smoke particles and physical processes, such as migration of ultrafine BC particles (< 100 nm) in the size spectrum due to coagulation and the condensation growth of smoke particles. Interconnected effects (interference) of the mentioned processes on the particle’s structure determine the main features of the dynamics of the composition and absorbing properties of the smoke particles.

Keywords: радиально-неоднородная эллипсоидальная частица, radially inhomogeneous ellipsoidal particle

Abstract >>
The Rayleigh-Gans-Debye and anomalous diffraction approximations are used to formulate necessary and sufficient conditions for optical equivalence of randomly oriented radially inhomogeneous optically “soft” ellipsoidal particles and polydisperse radially inhomogeneous spherical particles. The consequences of the optical equivalence are used as a basis for the optical classification of isotropic ensembles of “soft” ellipsoidal particles. Correctness of the classification is illustrated by the T-matrix method and Mie theory calculations.

Abstract >>
A fundamentally new physico-mathematical formulation of the problem of retrieving the average field of atmospheric contaminant concentrations and detecting emission sources from local measurements is presented. This is a problem of passive location of the atmosphere by wind or a problem of fluid location of the atmosphere. The definitions of new functions are given: the mean effective concentration field and the mean effective field of the sources. The differential and integral forms of equations for the solution of the problem are presented. Several particular cases are briefly considered, which show the relationship of the proposed approach with the methods of back trajectories statistics and direct atmospheric dispersion simulation.

Abstract >>
The comparative analysis of the chemical composition of water- and acid-soluble fractions in dry deposits is performed; the ratio of submicron and coarse phases in surface aerosols is assessed and their mineral and material composition are studied for the background region of Tom-Ob interfluve with use of the scanning submicroscopy. Distinctions in the ratios of metals in the water- and acid-soluble fractions are revealed. It is suggested that water-soluble compounds generally form the submicron fraction, and acid-soluble compounds, the coarse fraction.

Abstract >>
Nanosecond discharges in air, SF6, and helium at pressures of units-tens of Torr are studied. Spatial heterogeneity of diffuse jets and autographs of runaway electron (RAE) beams are registered in all three gases in a non-uniform electric field. It is shown that diffuse jets in the discharge gap change their shape and their length increases and changes from pulse to pulse as the pressure decreases; as well, it is confirmed that the RAE beam amplitude increases as the pressure decreases and versus gas, decreasing with an increase in the atomic or molecular weight of the gas. It is assumed that the observed heterogeneity of diffuse jets and RAE beams can be associated with transient light phenomena in the Earth's atmosphere that have sizes of tens of kilometers and occur at high altitudes at low pressures under high thunderstorm activity.

Abstract >>
Experiments are described on the excitation of amplified spontaneous emission on the D-lines of sodium (D2 = 588.9 nm; D1 = 589.6 nm) at longitudinal optical pumping with a large detuning from the D2 line toward shorter wavelengths. The radiation spectra are measured, which proves gain on the both lines, at Na concentration of (1-5) ∙ 1014 cm-3, buffer gas (helium) pressure of 600 Torr at the working temperature, and pumping power density of more than 1.5 MW/cm2. The time characteristics show that the output radiation varies versus the concentration of sodium atoms in the active medium. The dependences of radiation absorption at the D-lines of sodium on the concentration of Na atoms and buffer gas pressure are given.

It is shown that the efficiency of adaptive correction of turbulent distortions of laser radiation increases if the correcting mirror is controlled via an algorithm synthesized on the basis of prediction of Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor measurements. The use of the predictive control algorithm makes it possible to minimize the error that associated with the time delay of the system. The prediction of the surface reproduced by the mirror is performed on the basis of an analysis of phase fluctuations in time.

Keywords: урбанизация, экономический рост, численность населения, миграция, регион, город, Россия, urbanization, economic growth, population, migration, region, urban area, Russia
Subsection: Economic Issues of Regional Development

Abstract >>
The article shows that the level of urbanization in Russia is trending upward. Within the period under study (1992-2014), the size of Russia’s urban population changed due to natural population growth and migration, as well as administrative and territorial transformations. The evaluation of urbanization factors indicates the relocation of Russian economic activity to the biggest cities. We have found a distortion of a long-term positive impact of economic growth on the level of urbanization in the existing spatial structure of the Russian economy, defined by a large diversity of regional socio-economic systems. The article demonstrates a statistically significant positive effect of economic growth on the level of urbanization over a long-term period, provided that we exclude regions with a high mining share in the gross added value from the data pool.

Subsection: Economic Issues of Regional Development

Abstract >>
The article considers the conditions, peculiarities, and opportunities for the reindustrialization (new industrialization) of the rural economy in Zabaykalskiy Krai (Transbaikal). We analyze the effects of the collapse of the Soviet agrarian development model in remote Russian regions, which, inter alia, led to a de-graded Transbaikal agri-food sector and chronic losses for local agricultural producers. The article describes the traps standing in the way of sustainable rural development associated with the lack of efficient overcoming mechanisms, regularly arising negative natural and climatic phenomena, investment activity encouragement, and competitive advantages. Based on a sociological survey, we present a spectrum of agribusiness community’s opinions on the existing problems of the agricultural sector, urgent trends, ways for its improvement, and reforming organizational and financial conditions that would give impetus to agribusiness development in Zabaykalskiy Krai. The article contemplates two approaches to the reindustrialization of the agro-industrial complex in Transbaikal. The first approach presupposes an emphasis on attracting large producers, capable of carrying out «industrialization-type» investment pro-jects, which reduce the dependence on unfavorable natural conditions, at their own expense and with state support. The second approach relies on the advan-tages of a multi-structural economy and the creation of mechanisms for the integ-ration of agro-industrial enterprises of various levels and sizes (small, medium, and large) into economic (internal and external) space.

Subsection: SOCIAL ISSUES OF REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT

Abstract >>
By using sociological methods, the article examines fundraising activities in public social service agencies of Omsk Oblast. We give characteristics to the regional system of social services and provide rationale for choosing it as our research base. The article builds a fundraiser’s sociological profile and explo- res the main components of his motivational frame. The study depicts motives for attracting additional resources and special features of fundraisers. We show that there is a need to professionalize fundraising in social service institutions, train fundraisers, and prevent their emotional burnout. A revealed specificity of fundraising activity makes it possible to view it as intermittent work, which has signs of both wage and volunteer labor; thus, this matter demands further economic and sociological study.

Subsection: Regional and Interregional Aspects of Structural and Investment Policy

Abstract >>
The article shows that the global spatial organization of oil and gas services is largely determined by the features of mineral resource assets, while Russian service companies are still referred to as regional-level actors. The analysis establishes the key role of oil services in the innovative processes ongoing within the oil and gas sector. Knowledge-intensive services can significantly reduce the unit cost of incremental reserves and production costs. The processes of shaping and cultivating the oil-and-gas component of regional innovation systems are summarized in endogenous, network, and exogenous base models. There cannot be a single model of innovative development for the needs of the oil and gas sector in resource regions. It is expedient to form and develop such models with due account for a wide range of regional peculiarities. The results obtained demonstrate a need to strengthen the role of resource regions in regulating oil and gas services and innovative processes in the oil and gas sector. The study is oriented towards developing a methodology to study innovative processes within the framework of regional socio-economic systems, as well as towards elaborating practical recommendations on the development of oil and gas services in Russian resource regions.

Subsection: REGIONAL AND INTERREGIONAL ASPECTS OF STRUCTURAL AND INVESTMENT POLICY

Abstract >>
The article describes an interregional input-output optimization model for the fuel and energy sector (OMMM-TEK model complex), experience of its use, and functioning scheme. From the methodological point of view, we show how its application allows modeling and analyzing macroeconomic consequences of reducing coal and gas exports to Europe, presented as various scenarios. The article examines previous experience of OMMM-assisted gas exports modeling and reproduces it in experimental calculations. We compare it with the analysis concerning the ratios between specific coal and gas exports and imports of products with high added value based on input-output tables. In calculations, we use a method of linking negative incremental values of regional coal and gas exports to the national imports of engineering products in certain quantitative proportions. We draw a distinction between the concepts of a national economic scenario and situational scenarios. Options for expor- ting fuel and energy resources are built upon parametric analysis within the given national economic scenario. The article shows that potential GDP (GRP) losses following a reduction in coal and gas exports and in the imports of engineering products may be rather significant. However, they can be largely compensated by import substitution.

Subsection: Environmental and Economic Issues of Regional Development

Abstract >>
The article analyzes the impact of climate change on the overall well-being of households. It provides quantitative estimates of the dependence of subjective well-being valuations on regional climate parameters. As a hypothesis, it is assumed that subjective happiness estimates recovered via panel surveys reflect rational individual preferences that may be represented by a utility function while its parameters can be assessed with an econometric model. We conduct an econometric estimation of the parameter values of a happiness function using an ordered probit regression model. The model is built on the data provided by the Rosstat statistical agency and the primary data of the Russian Longitude Monitoring Survey (RLMS-HSE). We show that the climate factor has a highly significant effect on a respondents’ self-reported life quality valuation; as significant as the impact of other, more common factors such as money income, employment status, health condition, the quality of drinking water and air, etc. The findings may be used in the economic valuation of climate change consequences, as well as the development of policies aimed at preventing climate change.

Subsection: Economics of Enteprises

Abstract >>
The article proposes an approach to estimating sustainability and stability of company leadership, applied to analyze leading Russian high-tech firms’ positions. As an empirical basis, we use data from the RBC rating of 50 largest technology companies and the TechUp National Rating. According to the article, high-tech business is characterized by large uncertainty. We justify and calculate indicators suggestive of the emergence of several stable core leaders in the short term. Stability indicators do not show any positive trends. Com- panies that could potentially form the leadership core will not be able to maintain their positions if developing independently; they need support and encouragement. We identify a few regions (including Moscow, St. Petersburg, Novosibirsk, the Republic of Tatarstan, and others) and industries (biotechnology, pharmaceutics, IT, engineering, and others) that are key to the development of high-tech business.

Keywords: conjugate heat and mass exchange, rotation, ablation, thermal protection material
Pages: 657–669
Abstract >>
Some methods of thermal regime control for three dimensional flows around a body due to the simultaneous impact of body rotation around the longitudinal axis, mass ablative surface, and heat transfer flow in the body shell material are considered. The solution to the dual formulation allows us to take into account the impact of non-isothermal shell wall on the characteristics of heat and mass transfer in the boundary layer. The effect of the body rotation and the injection of cooler gas on the characteristics of heat and mass exchange in a thermal protection material is analyzed.

E-mail: zarvin@phys.nsu.ru
Keywords: supersonic jet, molecular beam, condensation, cluster formation, mass-spectrometry, cluster ionization
Pages: 671–681
Abstract >>
The structure of clustered supersonic underexpanded jets of molecular nitrogen and argon was measured by the method of molecular beam mass-spectrometry. Peculiarities of application of the molecular beam methods for recording the supersonic rarefied gas jets under the conditions of weak and developed condensation (i.e., in the pre­sence of small and large clusters in jets) have been discovered, identified, and studied. An unusual shape of longitu­dinal and transverse cross sections of the clustered supersonic jets was revealed and explained when scanning with a molecular-beam system. It has been determined that small clusters and monomers are the sources of double-ionized monomers available near the flow axis, and dimer ions at the early stages of condensation, whereas another mechanism of such ion formation dominates, when large clusters area available in the flow. A marker for fixing the stage of formation of small clusters in a supersonic flow is proposed.

E-mail: zaripov.d.i@mail.ru, n.miheev@mail.ru
Keywords: boundary condition, numerical scheme, circular channel, long channel, resonance, acoustic oscillations
Pages: 683–690
Abstract >>
The influence of properties of first- and second-order accuracy finite-difference schemes and of the grid roughness in the computational domain on the prediction of amplitude-frequency responses of pressure oscillations is investigated within the framework of the problem of steady-state oscillations in a semi-closed channel. It is shown that Godunov-type first-order accuracy scheme underestimates the amplitude of high-frequency oscillations relative to experimental data. Second-order accuracy Lax–Wendroff scheme leads to qualitative coincidence of a trend of amplitude-frequency response with experimental data in terms of the harmonics number even at a relatively coarse discretization of a computational domain.

PHILOSOPHY AND SCIENCE: THE STRATEGY OF CONFRONTATION

S. K. Cherepanov
Institute of the Humanitarian, 79, Svobodny av., Krasnoyarsk, 660041, Russia
Keywords: концептуальный прагматизм, реконструкция, модель, определенность, эволюция языка, членораздельность, conceptual pragmatism, reconstruction, model, certainty, evolution of language, articulateness

Abstract >>
Philosophy and science are two opposite manifestations of rationality which compete with one another. Philosophy is the art of producing issues and science is the art of solving problems. Analyzing the confrontation between these rationality streams, the author proposes to interpolate the «methodological concern of philosophy» into the scientific search language that will allow to constitute methodology as a logical theory.

Keywords: теоретико-игровая семантика, дружественно-независимая логика, синтаксис, сколемизация, композициональность, game-theoretical semantics, friendly- independent logic, syntax, skolemization, compositionality

Abstract >>
The paper considers the question of the degree to which Goodstein's theorem may be considered to be an analogue of a true, but not provable Gödelian sentence. It is shown that such an interpretation leads to Isaacson's thesis, according to which the demonstration of the truth of real mathematical analogues of the Gödelian sentence in the formal language of arithmetic uses conceptual resources that go beyond the resources required to understand the basic arithmetic of finite natural numbers. The plausibility of the thesis is disputed from the point of view of the incomprehensibility of the arithmetic content of the Gödelian sentence.

Keywords: частотная интерпретация, субъективистская интерпретация, теорема Бернулли, близость вероятности и частот, устойчивость частот, принцип Курно, Колмогоров, Мизес, frequency interpretation, subjective interpretation, Bernoulli’s theorem, proximity of probability and frequencies, stability of frequencies, Cournot’s principle, Kolmogorov, Mises, Borel, Frechet, Levy

Abstract >>
Kolmogorov’s contemporaries Borel, Frechet and Levy believed that Kolmogorov’s request for the proximity of event probability and its frequency characteristics is redundant in the context of applications of mathematics, since it is deduced by means of Bernoulli’s theorem, being its conclusion. The article shows that French mathematicians’ conclusion is restricted by the subjective interpretation of probability theory. Kolmogorov’ recommendations refer to the frequency interpretation in which his «dependent» request is not the conclusion of the theorem, but the precondition of applying Bernoulli’s theorem. A generalized result is that methods used in the subjective interpretation and conclusions based on these methods are of no value in the frequency interpretation and vice versa.

IS ONE STRUCTURE ENOUGH TO DESCRIBE PHYSICAL REALITY?

E. A. Bezlepkin
Institute of Philosophy and Law, Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 8 Nikolaeva str., Novosibirsk, 630090, Russia
Keywords: унификация, объединение, интертеоретические отношения, синтез, редукция, физическая картина мира, mathematical structure, Platonism, theory of everything, determinism, emergence, exceptionally simple theory of everything

Abstract >>
There are two philosophical prerequisites for creating a theory of everything, namely the possibility to describe the world with the help of (a) a single theoretical object and (b) a generalized mathematical structure. At present, the most popular theories of everything (superstring theory and loop quantum theory of gravity) exploit the first approach. The article considers an exceptionally simple theory of everything which is based on the second approach. The main point of the article is that a single mathematical structure is sufficient to describe only one level of physical reality. The article also considers main problems arising from such an assumption, namely the anthropologism of mathematics, the incompleteness of mathematics and the problem of deterministic description.

CORRELATION BETWEEN CRITICAL ARGUMENTS OF THEORY-LADENNESSAND INCOMMENSURABILITY OF SCIENTIFIC THEORIES

St. E. Ovchinnikov
Institute of Philosophy and Law, Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 8, Nikolaeva str., Novosibirsk, 630090, Russia
Keywords: парадигма, теоретическая нагруженность, неопределенность, несоизмеримость, paradigm, theory-ladenness, indeterminacy, incommensurability

Abstract >>
The paper is aimed at demonstrating the justification of logical correlation between main critical arguments. Basing on the analysis, we revealed that there was a mixture of two understandings of experiment results, those are ascertaining of results and their interpretation within the ontology of the theory in question. We show that incommensurability as a relativistic argument appears because of such mixing. We found out that there was a logical circle in sceptic argumentation related to scientific knowledge. Particularly, theory-ladenness of observations as a relativistic argument loses its meaning because various theories differ in basic notions and may explain empirical data in parallel without contradictions.

REMOTE VIEWING IN THE LIGHT OF TWO PARASCIENCE SIGNS

V. E. Osipov
Omsk State Technical University, 11, Mira av., Omsk, 644050, Russia
Keywords: дистанционное видение, дальновидение, парапсихология, паранаука, наука, метаанализ, критерий простоты, remote viewing, parapsychology, parascience, meta-analysis, simplicity criterion

Abstract >>
The paper considers whether the remote viewing research program meets two parascience criteria: (1) the deviation of its methods and cognitive activity standards from scientific ones and (2) the rejection of the simplicity principle. In particular, we consider definitions of remote viewing, as well as various aspects concerning the remote viewing research program, such as a brief historical information, methodological prescriptions, statistical methods, empirical data, cases of experiments, and exerts’ opinions. We found that the program did not meet the first parascience criterion. Basing on reliable empirical data proving the existence of remote viewing, we also conclude that psychologists who hypothesize non-physical interactions should not be attributed with the second parascience sign as well.

«BRAINSTORM»: THE NEUROSCIENCE OUTSIDE OF NEUROSCIENCE

A. A. Filatova
Don State Technical University, 1, Gagarin sq., Rostov-on-Don, 344000, Russia
Keywords: нейронаука, критика нейронауки, культура мозга, функциональная магниторезонансная томография, визуализация мозга, нейронаука в масс-медиа, дисциплинарная интервенция, редукционизм, neuroscience, criticism of neuroscience, drain culture, functional magneting resonance imaging, brain imaging, neuroscience in mass media, disciplinary intervention, reductionism

Abstract >>
The paper analyzes the intervention of neuroscience into various areas of human practice and cognition which results in the formation of the so-called «brain culture». The author draws attention to a number of phenomena showing an active disciplinary expansion which may be observed in recent decades. Three main directions of critical reflection of the problem are marked out. Firstly, the paper shows theoretical and methodological disadvantages of neuroscience itself and raises the question of criteria allowing distinguishing between a «good neuroscience» and a «pseudo neuroscience» or a «junk neuroscience». Then, it considers how neuroscience achievements are presented in mass media and how fMRI brain scans influence the perception of information by average persons. The problem of the social demand for neuroscience and mechanisms forming such a public demand for knowledge of the brain is also touched upon. The penetration of the neuroscience terminology and its interpretation methods into modern social and humanities knowledge is considered; the nature of these reductionist tendencies is conceptualized.

THE DIGITAL AND THE ANALOGOUS IN MEDICINE AND PSYCHOLOGY

E. V. Kosilova
Lomonosov Moscow State University, 24, Lomonosovskiy av., Moscow, 119991 Russia
Keywords: дигитальное, дигитализация, аналоговое, психиатрия, психология, понимание, digital, digitalization, analogous, psychiatry, psychology, understanding

Abstract >>
The paper deals with the problems of digitalization of psychiatry and psychology, digitalization here implies expression in numbers. The question is whether we may express understanding and general cognition could be in numbers. The author argues that understanding demands an analogous (not digital) mechanism. But in psychiatry, understanding is essentially necessary to provide the right diagnosis. So, in psychiatry, digitalization will lead to a wrong diagnostic. As to psychology, the total digitalization (questionnaires, statistic conclusions) is also impossible, but psychology resists such a trend, while psychiatry is helpless against it.

Keywords: система, подход, познание, принцип, формирование, system approach, cognition, formation

Abstract >>
Analyzing the ideas of systematic organization of scientific knowledge whick thinkers and scientists advanced in the Modern times, the author comes to the conclusion that these ideas contributed to the development of systems knowledge in studying of complex objects and served as prerequisites for the formation of the system approach in the form of a theoretical concept named «the general system theory».
