The methodology for obtaining fast particles has repeatedly received attention in the pages of this journal. However, since in recent years further major advances have been achieved in this field, quite definite trends in development have emerged, and the production of fast particles itself has acqu…
This review aims to introduce the reader to studies on the spectroscopy of rare-earth ions in solutions.
The Academy of Sciences of the USSR, represented by its Divisions of Physical and Mathematical, Chemical, and Technical Sciences and by the Physical Institute, marked the centenary of the discovery of photography with a joint ceremonial session on April 3 at the Moscow House of Scientists.
Based on a report by P. A. Rehbinder delivered at the ceremonial meeting of the Academician Zelinsky University of Physical Chemistry dedicated to the 100th anniversary of Gibbs’s birth.
This paper examines how to construct a rational work cycle for core drilling with cemented carbide bits, focusing on the relation between net drilling time and auxiliary operations such as lowering, hoisting, core handling, and rod changes. Using statistical processing of time-study observations fro…
This paper examines cleavage and fracturing in thick coal seams of the Prokopyevsk district of Kuzbass and their practical effects on stoping operations, especially face stability and coal breaking. Based on underground observations in the Koksovaya mine and mines 3 and 3-bis, the authors develop a …
This paper addresses the practical problem of locating the displaced limb of coal seams after disjunctive disturbances are encountered in underground workings of the Prokopyevsk district of the Kuznetsk Basin. Drawing on mine-geological observations from the Koksovaya Mine area and on simplified min…
This paper addresses the geometric interpretation of disjunctive disturbances, especially the practical problem of finding the displaced continuation of a bed, seam, or vein after faulting. It argues that existing geological and mine surveying approaches inadequately distinguish the actual relative …
This paper examines several tectonic problems in the Kuznetsk Coal Basin using field observations, stratigraphic relationships, lithologic evidence, petrography, and geomorphological indicators. It argues for distinct pre and post ostracod limestone folding phases near Mount Orlinaya, identifies evi…
This article summarizes hydrogeological investigations conducted from 1932 to 1937 in the Barzas district of the Kuznetsk Basin, an area important for sapromixite coal mining and possible petroleum exploration. Using field surveys, hydrometric observations, borehole data, geological mapping, and wat…
This paper sets out a geotectonic theory in which the evolution of the Earth’s crust is interpreted as an expression of the self-development of Earth’s matter through alternating compression and expansion. It criticizes contraction theory, Tetyaev’s expansion-based explanation of folding, and neo-Ly…
This editorial note introduces the posthumous publication of M. A. Usov’s unfinished article, “The Geotectonic Theory of the Self-Development of the Earth’s Matter,” found among his papers after his death. It explains the manuscript’s condition, including its partly outline-like form, its planned se…
This obituary commemorates Mikhail Antonovich Usov, a Soviet geologist, educator, academician, and public figure who died suddenly in July 1939. It presents his career as centered on the development of Soviet geological science, the reform of higher technical education at Tomsk, and the training of …
At present there are many books and articles devoted to the exposition of the foundations of colorimetry. The methods of exposition adopted in most of them do not seem to the author entirely satisfactory. The present article is an attempt at a more systematic exposition of the subject, intended prim…
In physics, there is hardly any other field in which the problems of practical application are so closely intertwined with the problems of scientific research as in the field of the physics of electronic and ionic processes, or, as it is sometimes called, the field of electrical phenomena in gases a…
On January 20–22, 1939, in Leningrad, at the Club of Scientists in Lesnoy, meetings of the Conference on Secondary Emission and the Photoelectric Effect were held, convened by the Department of Experimental Physics of the Engineering Physics Faculty of the Leningrad Industrial Institute on the initi…
A lecture delivered at the N. D. Zelinsky University of Physical Chemistry in Moscow on November 14, 1937.
This article is a revised version of a report delivered on April 9, 1938, at a meeting of the Department of Physics of the Moscow State Pedagogical Institute dedicated to the memory of H. Hertz.
