Experimental Complex NEVOD (MEPhI, Moscow) includes several detectors and installations for measuring different components of extensive air showers (EAS). For the development of multicomponent EAS studies with the implementation of a complementary approach to the analysis of experimental information of the scientific facilities of the complex, a specialized hardware and software system is being created. This system will speed up the obtaining of new physical results by simplification of development and implementation of both traditional approaches and modern methods for data processing, including neural networks and algorithms for analyzing large amounts of data. The hardware and software architecture of the system, its features and prospects of the further development are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A summary of the 12th Russian Conference on Semiconductor Physics (RCSP-12), September 20-25, 2015, at 'Ershovo' hotel near Zvenigorod, Moscow oblast, is presented. The statistics of reports within sections is given, the trends of changing study interests in comparison with the previous 11th Russian Conference on Semiconductor Physics held in 2013 in Saint Petersburg and the 32nd International Conference on Semiconductor Physics held in 2014 in Austin (Texas, USA) are analyzed. The main features of the present conference are indicated, the most interesting lines of research, in my view, are presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Themomentum distribution of nucleons in the deuteron is calculated for the Moscow and Paris nucleon-nucleon potentials. It is shown that the Moscow potential provides a better description of the distribution deduced from data on the reaction d( e, e′p) n in the region close to the kinematical region of quasielastic proton knockout.

Abstract: The purpose of the work was to build a prompt gamma neutron activation analysis (PGNAA) facility at the MEPhI reactor for analyzing the content of various elements for NCT. The facility was implemented on a monochromatic neutron beam. Methods of quantitative 10B and Gd measurement have been developed for pharmacokinetic studies. The facility is capable of measuring 1μg of 10B and 10μg of Gd in biological samples with an error less than 10%. The detection limit of the facility is 0.3μg of 10B and 2μg of Gd. Neutron flux attenuation within biological tissue samples was estimated and a new system for determining the elemental concentration was suggested. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
