An analysis of the dispersion parameter of the rapidity spectrum of particles in individual events in 70 GeV proton–nucleus interactions has been considered. Application of such a method of analysis of the interactions in photographic emulsions permits us to identify the clusters produced in such reactions.

Equidensitometry as developed by E. Lau and W. Krug has been little used in the analysis of ordinary electron photomicrographs, yet its application to the high voltage electron images proves merits of this procedure. Proper sets (families) of equidensities as shown in the next page are able to reveal the contour map of mass thickness distribution in thick noncrystalline specimens. The change in density of the electron micrograph is directly related to the mass thickness of corresponding area in the specimen, because of the linear response of photographic emulsions to electrons and the logarithmic relation between electron opacity and mass thickness of amorphous object.This linearity is verified by equidensitometry of a spherical solid object as shown in Fig. 1a. The object is a large (1 μ) homogeneous particle of polystyrene. Fig. 1b is a composite print of three equidensities of the 1st order prepared from Fig. 1a.

With the advances in preparing biological materials in a thin and highly ordered form, and in maintaining them hydrated under vacuum, electron crystallography has become an important tool for biological structure investigation at high resolution (1,2). However, the electron radiation damage would limit the capability of recording reflections with low intensities in an electron diffraction pattern. It has been demonstrated that the use of a low temperature stage can reduce the radiation damage effect and that one can expose the specimen with a higher dose in order to increase the signal contrast (3). A further improvement can be made by selecting a proper photographic emulsion. The primary factors in evaluating the suitability of photographic emulsion for recording low dose diffraction patterns are speed, fog level, electron response at low electron exposure, linearity, and usable range of exposure. We have compared these factors with three photographic emulsions including Kodak electron microscopic plate (EMP), Industrex AA x-ray film (AA x-ray) and Kodak nuclear track film (NTB3).

Introduction. An osteopathic examination determines the rate, the amplitude and the strength of the main rhythms (cardiac, respiratory and cranial). However, there are relatively few studies in the available literature dedicated to the influence of osteopathic correction (OC) on the characteristics of these rhythms.Goal of research — to study the influence of OC on the rate characteristics of various rhythms of the human body.Materials and methods. 88 adult osteopathic patients aged from 18 to 81 years were examined, among them 30 men and 58 women. All patients received general osteopathic examination. The rate of the cranial rhythm (RCR), respiratory rate (RR) heart rate (HR), the mobility of the nervous processes (MNP) and the connective tissue mobility (CTM) were assessed before and after the OC session.Results. Since age varied greatly in the examined group, a correlation analysis of age-related changes of the assessed rhythms was carried out. Only the CTM correlated with age (r=–0,28; p<0,05) in a statistically significant way. The rank dispersion analysis of Kruskal–Wallis also showed statistically significant difference in this indicator in different age groups (p=0,043). With the increase of years, the CTM decreases gradually. After the OC, the CTM, increased in a statistically significant way (p<0,0001). The RCR varied from 5 to 12 cycles/min in the examined group, which corresponded to the norm. After the OC, the RCR has increased in a statistically significant way (p<0,0001), the MNP has also increased (p<0,0001). The initial heart rate in the subjects varied from 56 to 94 beats/min, and in 15 % it exceeded the norm. After the OC the heart rate corresponded to the norm in all patients. The heart rate and the respiratory rate significantly decreased after the OC (р<0,0001).Conclusion. The described biorhythm changes after the OC session may be indicative of the improvement of the nervous regulation, of the normalization of the autonomic balance, of the improvement of the biomechanical properties of body tissues and of the increase of their mobility. The assessed parameters can be measured quickly without any additional equipment and can be used in order to study the results of the OC.

Repeated sampling of a water (raw, Ssished, recreational) is often used to assess microbial quality. Microbial distributions have often been found to be negative binomial distributed in such repeated samples. Under these conditions, it is shown that it is better to use a large number of small volume samples than vice versa, providing that the negative binomial dispersion parameter remains unaffected by volume. Further research is needed to determine if the latter assumption, which influences the conclusion proposed, is valid for various classes of microorganisms in various types of waters.
