Detection of high energy solar protons during ground level enhancements
Abstract Registration of high energy solar protons by middle and low latitude particle monitors during ground level enhancements (GLE) is investigated. We have developed a comprehensive method, for revealing weak GLE signals. The main result of the method is estimation of probability of error for given value of observed signal amplitude. We derived, that for middle energy protons, the 99% confidence limit of GLE signal detection is determined by ∼4.3 σ of observed signal, whereas for highest energy protons it is determined by ∼3.7 σ . Applying this method to GLE-65 at 28 October 2003, GLE-69 at 20 January 2005 and GLE-70 at 13 December 2006, we make conclusions about the maximal energy of protons during these events. We claim on the presence of >20…30 GeV protons in GLE-65 with the probability of error ∼7% and in the GLE-69 with the probability of error ∼0.4%. However, during GLE-70 maximal energy of protons was ∼10 GeV.

Microwave gyroscope-novel rotation sensor
High performance microwave gyroscope (MG) is theoretically developed for the first time to our knowledge. MG is based on Sagnac effect in microwave ring resonator (RR), where a specially taylored phase shifter (PS) on the basis of surface acoustic waves is inserted. Due to that beat frequency becomes proportional to square (or cubic) root upon rotation rate and therefore hugely increases. In the result MG has few order higher sensitivity and dynamic range than state-of-the-art laser gyros, so it can serve as an advanced rotation sensor in navigation and fundamental sciences.

The analysis of proton- and deuteron-induced-reaction cross sections on tin isotopes at the beam energy of 3.65 GeV/nucleon
The total inelastic cross sections of the reactions of protons and deuterons on nuclear targets of enriched tin isotopes are compared. The factorization of cross sections of reactions is discussed. Furthermore, the comparison of theoretical estimations on total inelastic cross sections with corresponding experimental ones is made.

Target residues formed in the 4.4 GeV deuteron-induced reaction on gold
The production cross sections for 110 radioactive nuclides, with mass numbers 22 A 198, were obtained from the interaction of 4.4 GeV deuteron with a 197 Au target using the induced-activity method. The deuteron beam was obtained from the Nuclotron of the Laboratory of High Energies (LHE), Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR) at Dubna. Using the charge distribution data, we derived the total mass-yield distribution. The analysis of the mass-yield distribution allowed us to consider the coexistence of different channels in the interaction such as evaporation, fission, and multifragmentation.
