Non-covalent structures of negative ions in dissociative electron capture spectra
Abstract
Over the last ten years, a few examples of so-called non-covalent structures of negative ions have been found, the geometry of which differs significantly from the geometry of the original molecules. In particular, the lengths of carbon-halogen bonds reach 2.7–3 Å, and the halogen atom itself can circle the hydrocarbon skeleton of the anion, the so-called roaming effect. Such non-covalent structures can have a significantly higher electron affinity than the original molecules.

Photoinduced electron transfer in deferiprone chelate complexes with nontransition metal ions
Abstract
The formation and photo degradation of deferiprone chelate complexes with calcium and zinc ions have been studied by CIDNP and LFP methods. It was established that deferiprone in complexes undergoes rapid decomposition under the UV irradiation. Radical intermediates of deferiprone have been registered, and it was shown that the quantum yield of deferiprone photo degradation in the complex with zinc increases by 6.4 times.

Evolution of gas-phase hyperthermal fragmental negative ions of 1H-1,2,4-triazole in their interaction with a graphite-like conducting surface
Abstract
It has been established that during the interaction of hyperthermal fragmentary negative ions of 1H-1,2,4- triazole: C2H2N3– and C2N3– with the cleaned soot surface, the intensity of the effective yield curve of the C2H2N3– anion decreases, but the C2N3– anion does not. Based on density functional theory calculations and the use of a surface-induced charge model, a mechanism for neutralizing negative ions on the surface is proposed.

Radiation cooling of long-lived molecular negative ions of phenazine
Abstract
Based on the harmonic cascade model, the rate constants of radiative cooling of the molecular negative ions of phenazine were calculated. It was determined that radiative cooling of molecular negative ions does not significantly affect the rates of electron autodetachment and makes no distortion to the results of measuring the negative ions lifetime by resonance electron capture mass spectrometry.

Micromagnetic modeling of skyrmions in ferro- and ferrimagnetic structures
Abstract
The mechanisms and conditions of existence of skyrmions in ferro- and ferrimagnetic systems are determined because of micromagnetic modeling. The features of current-induced skyrmion motion are also estimated depending on the magnitude of the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, saturation magnetization, magnetic anisotropy and the attenuation parameter. The prospects of ferrimagnetic systems in comparison with ferromagnetic ones for investigation of skyrmions are shown.

Influence formation conditions of polydiphenylenephthalide films on thermostimulated depolarization currents
Abstract
The effect of a constant magnetic field (СMF) on the formation of a polymer film was studied for the first time. It was found that polydiphenylene phthalide films manufactured in СMP demonstrate increased electrical conductivity. The electrophysical parameters of the film were evaluated within the framework of the injection model. By the method of thermally stimulated depolarization, it was found that СMP promotes the ordering of macromolecules in the film.

Application of printing technologies for forming functional copoly(arylene ether ketone) films for flexible electronics
Abstract
The conditions for the formation of copoly(arylene ether ketones) films by layer-by-layer deposition were studied. The possibility of obtaining films with a minimum thickness of up to 1 µm, by the layer-bylayer deposition method, possessing electroactivity and sensitivity to changes in environmental conditions: humidity and temperature, was established. The results obtained can be used to develop additive printing technology for flexible electronics.

Investigation of the corrosion resistance of Ti40.0Ni51.0 alloy in various structural states
Abstract
The study of the corrosion resistance of Ti49.0Ni51.0 alloy in the initial coarse-grained state and in the state after preliminary aging was carried out. 0.9% NaCl, Ringer’s solution, and Hanks’ solution were chosen as corrosive media that mimic the biological environment of the body. We obtained that corrosion occurs in all states studied with the formation of pitting and the release of corrosion products on the surface.

Abstract
We study the effect of the structural state after deformation on the corrosion resistance of pure magnesium. It was found that precipitation by ~ 10% at a temperature of 150 °C, annealed after equal-channel angular compression, allows to obtain the best corrosion resistance (11.2 ± 0.6 mm/year) by increasing the density of the twins to 779 • 10-5 pm-2.

Photophysical characteristics of solutions of divalent europium dihalides EuX2 (X = Cl, Br). Aluminum alkyls as enhancers of luminescence of the Eu2+ ion
Abstract
The photophysical properties of solutions of EuCl2 and EuBr2dihalides in tetrahydrofuran have been studied in detail for the first time. Absorption, photoluminescence (4f65d1 → 4f7 transition) and photoluminescence excitation spectra as well as photoluminescence yields and lifetime of excited Eu2+* ions were measured. The effect of increasing the luminescence intensity of the Eu2+ ion in the presence of aluminium alkyls was discovered to be due to the rigid structure of the four-centre complex formed by the interaction of EuCl2 and EuBr2 with aluminium alkyls.

Low temperature luminescence of poly(diphenylene phthalide)
Abstract
UV-Irradiation of poly(diphenilenephthalide) leads to generation of separated ion-radical states and their stabilization by polymeric matrix. A technique for recording low-temperature luminescence (T = 80–150 K) of poly(arylene phthalides) as a consequence of ion-radical states recombination has been described. The decay kinetics of low-temperature luminescence intensity of poly(diphenilenephthalide) have been found to be polychronous.

Electron-stimulated luminescence of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons under ultrasonic influence on terbium sulfate suspensions in solutions of these hydrocarbons in decane
Abstract
In the sonotriboluminescence spectra (luminescence arising in suspensions during sonication with intense collisions and destruction of crystals) of lanthanide salts in decane containing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, emission bands of molecules of these hydrocarbons were recorded. Luminescence of aromatic hydrocarbons in suspensions is caused by their excitation by electrons.

Modeling of the influence of the aquatic environment on the energies of boundary orbitals of a subnanosized titanium dioxide cluster
Abstract
Within the framework of the “quantum theory of atoms in a molecule”, the ionic nature of the bonding of a subnanosized cluster (TiO2)10 with water molecules and the predominant contribution to the binding energy of contacts of the Ti...O type have been established. The influence of water on the energies of boundary orbitals and the energy gap (TiO2)10 within the framework of the model of a polarizable continuum and a discrete hydrate shell, as well as temperature accounting using ab initio dynamics, is shown.

Structure of hydrogen complexes in hydrates of the 1,2-naphthoquinone molecule
Abstract
The question of the quantitative composition and structure of the formed hydrogen complexes of the 1,2-naphthoquinone molecule with water molecules in its hydration shell is considered. The problem was solved by comparing the calculated shifts of electronic transitions during the formation of hydrogen complexes with n = 5–13 water molecules with the experimental shifts of the absorption bands of 1,2-naphthoquinone in a water solution compared to a solution in n-hexane.

Sagnac effect in the spacetime of tidal black holes
Abstract
We study the Sagnac effect in the space-time of a spinning black hole with a tidal charge ?. It is shown that the greatest influence of the tidal (electric) charge is occured at close distances to the black hole. An increase in the tidal charge leads to an increase in the Sagnac delay. Numerical estimates have shown that for the Earth, the Sagnac delay is determined in the range from –63.8 to –1.5 ns.

Simulation of photon transport in a fractal waveguide considered for 3–5 order nonlinearity
Abstract
We study the features of quantum transport of photons in a waveguide lattice with a fractal structure of two types — a triangle and a Sierpinski square, formed by hexagons. Based on the discrete Schrodinger equation, considering 3–5 order nonlinearity, the evolution of the system is analyzed. The influence of fractal geometry on quantum transport of photons in a waveguide lattice is revealed.

Analysis of the effect of a recurrent neural network size on modeling and prediction accuracy of a stochastic FitzHugh–Nagumo neuron
Abstract
We study the performance of a reservoir computing-based network in dynamics forecast of a FitzHugh–Nagumo model driven by white noise versus reservoir size. We show that the accuracy of signal prediction of a model neuron strongly depends on the number of neurons in the reservoir. The most accurate prediction of both the dynamics itself and the simulation of the coherence resonance phenomenon is achieved when using 500 neurons.
