Anelastic Effects in Fe-Ga and Fe-Ga-Based Alloys: A Review.

Fe-Ga alloys (GalFeNOLs) are the focus of attention due to their enhanced magneto-elastic properties, namely, magnetostriction in low saturation magnetic fields. In the last several years, special attention has been paid to the anelastic properties of these alloys. In this review, we collected and analyzed the frequency-, amplitude-, and temperature-dependent anelasticity in Fe-Ga and Fe-Ga-based alloys in the Hertz range of forced and free-decay vibrations.

The first- and second-order isothermal phase transitions in FeGa-type compounds.

Structural features and kinetics of the transition between ordered metastable b.c.c.

Effect of transauricular electroacupuncture on stress-induced changes in cognitive function and erosions of the gastric mucosa in rats.

Transauricular electroacupuncture prevented stress-induced increase in the degree of anxiety and suppression of exploratory activity in rats. This procedure significantly accelerated decision-making process during acute stress in both control and prestressed rats. Transauricular electroacupuncture decreased the number and area of erosions by producing a pronounced antistress effect at the central and peripheral levels.

[The hygienic evaluation of the quality of the water from the Beresh River by its physicochemical indices].

The physicochemical properties of the water sampled from the Beresh [correction of Beresha] River before and after the development of the Sharypovsk industrial center were studied. The rates of increases in the levels of river water pollutants, sulfates, biogenic mineral substances, phenols, and petroleum products were found. Measures against river water pollution are recommended.

[Assessment of bottom sediments of the Uriup River in the area of open coal pit sewage accumulation].

The levels of greater than 20 chemicals were determined in the bottom sediments of the Uryup river. The characteristics of bottom river sediments before and after sewage accumulator outlet were compared. No negative changes in the chemical sediments in the river were revealed.
