The theory of transversely inhomogeneous heavy-current beam-plasma amplifier under conditions of collective Cerenkov effect
M.V. Kuzelev, V.A. Panin
The paper is concerned with both linear and nonlinear theories of amplifying electromagnetic plasma waves in a transversely inhomogeneous beam-plasma system of a general form under conditions of the collective Cerenkov effect. The optimum length and efficiency of amplification, as well as the output electromagnetic radiation power have been calculated analytically and numerically.

The effect of transverse inhomogeneity of the pumping field on electron motion in nonadiabatic magnetic undulators with guiding magnetic field
V.A. Kubarev
Setting up optimal radiation regimes of helical relativistic electron beams requires a definite value of the electron pitch factor. The presence of a transverse inhomogeneity of the pumping field in real undulators leads to the following two main consequences: a widening of the nonlinear resonance and a drift of the guiding centers of the particles. A theory of these effects is developed for symmetric and asymmetric undulators with a homogeneous guiding magnetic field.

Characteristics of intermode striction coupling in spherical electroacoustic resonators
G.V. Belokopytov, N.P. Pushechkin, V.N. Semenenko
Integrated characteristics of the intermode striction interaction of electromagnetic and acoustic oscillations in spherical resonators have been studied. Selection rules are established and integrated striction interaction characteristics are calculated with consideration for the vector character of the fields and the electrostriction tensor anisotropy. There was good agreement between the calculated and experimental data on striction parametric excitation of radial elastic oscillations by UHF pumping in potassium tantalate dielectric resonators.
Show AbstractPolarization effects in light propagation through an acoustic field in an isotropic medium
Polarization effects in light propagation through an acoustic field in an isotropic medium
A.I. Balakshii, D.A. Khasan
The variation of light polarization in the process of Bragg's acoustooptic interaction has been investigated theoretically. It is shown that in the propagation of linearly polarized light through an acoustic field excited in an isotropic medium the light radiation becomes elliptically polarized. By varying the ultrasound intensity or frequency it is possible to control the polarization state. The effect of polarization nonreciprocity has also been studied for two light waves propagating through an acoustic field in the opposite directions.
Show AbstractThe effect of variation of the refractive index and thickness of layers in thin-layer interference filters on their optical parameters
The effect of variation of the refractive index and thickness of layers in thin-layer interference filters on their optical parameters
A.V. Kosar', E.V. Putrina
Changes in the refractive index of a medium to be matched and in the matching wavelength upon variation of the refractive indices and thicknesses of layers in thin-layer interference filters (TIF) were studied theoretically (the optical thickness of the layers is smaller than a quarter wavelength) for TIF with two and three layers in a period. New properties of such filters were discovered, in particular, the invariance of these changes with respect to the number of periods when the refractive indices of the layers vary. Simple analytical expressions were obtained that allow an adequate determination of the shift in the parameters under consideration. A computer-aided numerical analysis confirmed the theoretical predictions.

Fluorescence saturation phenomenon for dissolved organic compound
S.V. Patsaeva, V.V. Fadeev, E.M. Filippova, V.V. Chubarov, V.I. Yuzhakov
Specific features of the effect of fluorescence saturation for an organic compound dissolved in water were studied after fluorescence was excited by an LGI-505 nitrogen laser ($\lambda = 337$ nm, $\tau = 8$ ns, photon flux density $F = 10^{26}$ cm$^{-2}$ $s^{-1}$). The experimental data obtained are discussed in terms of the model concepts of the origin of the fluorescence band for the dissolved natural organic compound.

A study on the concentration dependence of spectral and luminescence properties of Luminophor 59 solutions in toluene, dioxane, dimethylformamide, and ethanol has shown that this dye forms associates at concentrations greater than $10^{-5}$ mole/liter. This conclusion has been supported by the data on the luminescence parameters. The quantum yields and lifetimes of fluorescence have been determined for the dye studied.

Algorithms for multiparameter reconstruction of spectral and luminescence characteristics by the fluorescence saturation method
N.Ya. Serov, V.V. Fadeev, A.M. Chekalyuk
Considered is the possibility of using fluorescence saturation curves to find the following molecular parameters: (i) the quantum yield of triplet states, (ii) the lifetime of the first excited singlet state $S_1$, and (iii) the absorption cross section for a transition from the ground state to $S_1$ at the wavelength of excitation. Algorithms for a simultaneous determination of two and three parameters have been proposed. Requirements to the accuracy of saturation curve measurements were found by mathematical modeling. The results of an experimental check-up of the proposed solution algorithm for a three-parameter problem are presented for the case of eosine aqueous solution.

A hypothesis is formulated which holds that breaking of symmetry in nature occurred in the prebiological evolution stage at the nonequilibrium ocean-atmosphere interface, and origination of aerosols from the ocean surface layer with inverted composition predetermined subsequent biological evolution.

Diffraction of the wave $H_{10}$ by the below-cutoff section of a partially dielectric-filled waveguide has been considered. The problem is solved in an exact electrodynamic statement. Mathematical modeling is done by the generalized scattering matrix method. Propagation constants are obtained by differentiation with respect to a parameter. The dependence of numerical modeling results on the number of modes is studied. The results of the numerical analysis and physical experiments are compared.

Dependence of the ion fractionation coefficient in sea aerosols on the rate of evaporation from the sea surface
M.R. Kuznetsova, E.V. Karavaeva, V.A. Tverdislov
It is shown that the difference between the chemical composition of sea aerosols and that of sea water may be due to irreversible processes of heat and mass exchange between the ocean and the atmosphere. These processes may cause changes in the chemical composition of the ocean surface microlayer, which generates aerosols.

A study of magnetic susceptibility of single-crystal gadolinium under all-round compression
S.A. Nikitin, Yu.I. Spichkin, A.M. Tishin
We measured the dependences of the initial magnetic susceptibility on the temperature $\chi(T)$ of a Gd single crystal along the $c$ and $b$ crystallographic axes in external magnetic fields and up to 1 GPa. The $\chi(T)$ curves were found to have maxima at the Curie temperature $\Theta_C$, the spin-reorientation transition temperature $\Theta_{SR}$, and the temperature $\Theta_A = 140$ К. The derivatives $\partial\Theta_C/\partial P$ and $\partial\Theta_{SR}/\partial P$ are determined, which are -13 and -67 K GPa$^{-1}$ along the $c$ axis and -12 and -29 K GPa$^{-1}$ along the $b$ axis, respectively.
