The Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox and the bell inequality in а quantum system with memory
D.А. Slavnov
The Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox and the Bell inequality are considered in а quantum system with memory. It is shown that if several levels of memory are assumed to exist one can oЬtain the same results as in the standard quantum mechanics. The physical interpretation in this case will bе very simple and clear.

V.V. Belokurov and V.V. Kamchatnyi
Solutions to the renormgroup equations depending on two or more dimensionless combinations of some dimensional variables are examined. It is shown that, generally, the form of the functional dependence on the ratio of dimensionless variaЫes cannot bе determined bу the renormgroup method. The structure of such solutions is found for some special cases.

On the theory of nonlinear plasma waves
Р.А. Polyakov
А nonlinear theory of plasma waves in а cold one-dimensional plasma is elaborated using the Lagrange formalism to describe the plasma medium and subsequently pass to the Euler variables. А new representation for nonlinear running and standing waves is obtained, and а new analytical solution for а bounded plasma is found that satisfies the necessary boundary conditions.

Gas heating kinetics in pulse-periodic air discharge
V.V. Lodinev, V.М. Shibkov, and L.V. Shibkova
Gas heating kinetics has Ьееп investigated under the conditions of а pulse-periodic discharge in air. Various mechanisms of energy supply to the translational degrees of freedom of the molecular gas have Ьееп studied. It is shown that in the active phase of pulsed discharge in air, at high values of the reduced electric field $(E/n>10^{15} V/cm^2)$, gas heating proceeds at the expense of quenching the electronically excited nitrogen molecules.

S.Е. Bobkov, Р.S. Bulkin, G.S. Solntsev, and L.I. Tsvetkova
The possibility of determining electron concentration n from the radial distribution of the amplitudes of the field components $Е_{r}(r), E_{z}(r), H_\phi(r)$ of а surface electromagnetic wave in а surfatron is examined. U se is made of а plasma waveguide model taking into account tube walls. Of three types of electromagnetic probes, the one recording $Е_{r}(r)$ gives the best results. Nonlinear effects caused bу the influence of probes on the discharge are observed at small probe-tube distances.

Mutual influence of diffraction-coupled lasers in а Talbot resonator
V.Р. Kandidov and I.V. Pashkova
The amplitude and phase relationships between the fields which form а diffraction coupling are studied as functions of the filling factor of the waveguide array. It is shown that а periodic field is formed in а Talbot resonator as а result of interference of the fields of individual waveguides which sets in at certain amplitude and phase relationships in the plane of their apertures.

Observations of the Earth's deformation spectrum bу means of а laser interferometer-deformograph
V.К. Milyukov and V.К. Kravchuk
Long-term observations of lithospheric deformations were car1·ied out in the frequency range of $5\cdot 10^{-6}$ to 103 Hz in the Northern Caucasus at the Baksan Geophysical Observatory (Shternberg Institute of Astronomy). Observations were made Ьу means of an underground laser interferometer-deformograph with а baseline of 75 m. The obtained estimate of the spectral density of deformations determines the background level of seismic noise over а wide frequency range.

Yu.V. Barkin
The paper is concerned with the study of а subtle geodynamic phenomenonthe secular movement of the Earth's center of mass caused Ьу movements of lithospheric plates. Based on the plate model adopted, it is shown that in this epoch the Earth's center of mass is being displaced relative to the mantle in the direction of а point with the geographic coordinates ip = 42.3° N .L. and $\lambda=131,2°$ E.L. (toward the Sea of Japan) at а rate vc· = 4.45 cm/century. The phenomenon is primarily due to the underthrust effect of oceanic plates.

V.D. Gusev, Е.G. Mikhailova, and L.I. Prikhod'ko
The rigorous solution to the problem of radio wave propagation in а nonuniform ionospheric layer with а linear profile of permittivity and absorption is considered. The exact solution is oЬtained for the complex reflectivity of the layer. It is shown that, even for а low absorption, the attenuation of radio waves in the layer can Ье quite strong, while reflection is virtually absent.

V.А. Krainov and V.Е. Zharov
А voltage-controlled oscillator is described, which is one of the important units of the laser gyroscope used for the study of the Earth's rotation nonuniformity. The existing circuits of high-frequency oscillators do not еnаblе one to measure small variations of the angular speed of rotation. The oscillator proposed in this work is based on the principle of frequency synthesis: the generation of а lowfrequency signal and the mixing of this signal with а reference high-frequency signal.

It was shown that the PrFe2 С14 structure in powder grains is unstaЫe with respect to electron itradiation in the tube of an electron microscope, which results in а radiation-induced phase transition of the PrFe2 С14 intermetallide with а hexagonal lattice into an fcc structure with the space group FmЗm and the parameter а= 9.lA.

There is а decrease and oscillation of the elastic scattering intensity as the ultrasound amplitude increases, which contradicts to previously obtained data [1, 2].
