The integral equations for the wave functions of discrete stationary states of the higher, single-fermion sectors of the Lee model are solved approximately by successive replacement of the nucleus by degenerate forms. A connection is found between an energy level and the reaction constant. It is shown that not more than one discrete state can exist in each sector, the energy of which tends to a finite limit as the reaction constant increases, and that the energy levels of the discrete states of different sections are equidistant for very strong binding.

The effect of intermolecular reaction on the intensity and width of lines of Raman scattering of pyridine in solutions containing acetic and formic acids is investigated. The equilibrium constants К and the reaction energy ∆U for the pyridine-formic acid and pyridine-acetic acid systems are determined from the temperature dependence of the pyridine line intensity in ternary mixtures.

The turbulent vertical-exchange coefficient and the heat-flow coefficient in the surface layer of the sea are calculated on the basis of experimental data and an extension of Fjeldstad's method. The amplitudes and phases of the radiative and turbulent heat flows and their ratios are estimated.

Einstein's equation is considered in Friedmann-Lobachevskii space. The equation of state is given in the general form and in the particular cases p=0, p= ρ/3; in the case p=ρ closed ana lytic solutions are given. The properties of the solutions obtained under the transformations λ⇆-λ are examined and solutions are shown to exist which give a change from expansion to compression when λ⇆-λ.

The solutions of the Dirac equation for an electron in the field of a plane electromagnetic wave, distinguished according to the states of polarization of electron spin, are considered. As an application of the solutions obtained we examine the problem of the Compton scattering of light by a moving polarized electron.

A centimeter-wave-band frequency multiplier in a sealed-off envelope with two helices through which a common electron beam pass was constructed and investigated. For a multiplication ratio of three, a positive conversion coefficient of the order of 30 dB is obtained. It is established that the maximum output power of the multiplier is comparable with the power delivered by the second stage under saturation conditions when used as an amplifier. The possibility of operating the multiplier over a wide frequency band is demonstrated.

The connection between the matrix elements of direct nuclear reactions in the usual formalism, which employs wave functions, and in the diagrammatic approach is studied. In the case of stripping (capture), inelastic scattering, spallation, and double decay reactions and a specific choice of vertex functions in the diagrams, the matrix elements of these two methods are identical. The problem of what vertex functions should be used in the sequential diagrammatic approach is discussed.

A picture of the gas flow close to a gradually opening diaphragm in a shock tube is obtained. The velocity distribution in the shock wave along the length of the tube, in the range of Mach numbers 2.13 to 2.75, is found for various diaphragm opening speeds. The gas flow in the tube is substantially nonuniform and depends on the way the diaphragm opens.
