‘People in Black’: Semantization of the concepts ‘sectant’ and ‘baptist’ in the anti-religious campaign of 1958—1964
In the post-revolutionary era, the population's adoption of a new political vocabulary demanded the Soviet authorities to play the role of the interpretant. They engaged in the process of assigning meanings to new concepts through mass media and fiction. Simultaneously, established concepts had to undergo reshaping to align with the new worldview of the 'Soviet citizen’. The transformation of the semantic structure of religious vocabulary, ideologically marked, reflected the shift in the fundamental...

Political reconsideration of the Soviet past: attitudes and actions of the Lithuanian elites
Different political elite groups of post-communist Lithuania offer different accounts of the Soviet past. Even twenty years later, after the collapse of communism Lithuanian politicians (with the exception of certain conservative anti-nostalgic leaders allied with some populists) still do not have a unified and coherent view on the Soviet political and social practices, truths, and methods. However, conservatives are very consistent in their restrictive views about the past and are willing to engage...
Simultaneous interpreter in multimodal dimension: the role of gestures in moments of non-interpretation
The paper investigates multimodal behavior of simultaneous interpreters during ‘non-interpretation’ regarded as interruptions in the flow of speech due to difficulties. Video recordings of a TEDtalk on biology interpreted from English into Russian by 24 simultaneous interpreters are analyzed with the help of quantitative and qualitative methods. The distribution of gestures with the moments of ‘non-interpretation’ indicates that referential (representational and deictic) gestures serve the...
The influence of implantation on the bright-ness of nitrogen-vacancy centers
We investigate the properties of spin states in the electronic ground state of a single nitrogen-vacancy center (NV–) in 13C-enriched diamond. The analysis is based on application of a method that uses a complete set of commuting operators (CSCO). Each state is characterized by a single set of values of CSCO. The properties of the spin states change at the level anti-crossing (LAC). This change leads to an increase in the spin-lattice relaxation rate and to a change in the ODMR spectrum. The...
Reactions of dibenzothiazine amination of quinone derivatives on a «copper film»
Interest in nitrogen-containing heterocycles can be brought about by the possibility of obtaining organic compounds with new properties by introducing various substituents into the structure. The aim of this work is to aminate quinoid structures with dibenzothiazine to produce condensed heterocycles with a bridged nitrogen atom. It is the N-substituted derivatives that form a bridge between the dibenzothiazine molecule and the substituent that are considered as the most promising substances....

Semiotic representation of Minsk in Viktor Martinovich’s novel “Mova”
The article aims to reveal the principles of urban space organisation in Viktor Martinovich’s novel “Mova”. Due to the fact that the novel is based on a linguistic problem (the author defines the genre of the novel as a “linguistic thriller”), the representation of the city in the novel is subject to linguistic models and principles. The main of these principles is the isomorphism of the part and the whole. The structural generality of the different levels of the novel and the novel space...
On mechanical resonances and anti-resonances
To study resonance and near-resonance phenomena, a symbolic (complex) method was used, which makes it possible to significantly increase productivity, simplify and formalize mathematical transformations. Parallel and sequential connections of elements of a mechanical system with a source of force or a source of speed as a source of external mechanical harmonic action are considered. Four modes are described — resonances and antiresonances of forces and velocities. The use of the symbolic (complex)...

Argumentum ad morti in the violence discourse: the semantics and pragmatics of ‘radical’ argumentation
The appeal to death is a type of argument that either explicitly or implicitly invokes human finitude. This rhetorical device contributes to the credibility of requests, wishes, etc., or blocks communication. The illocutionary power of the appeal to death is determined by the means it uses, which range from inductive generalisation and deductions to approaching the limit of this generalisation, to the threat of going beyond the existential boundaries of the discourse, to the problem domain losing...
Polarization transfer in the NV– — P1 system in diamond
The process of spin polarization transfer in the NV– — P1 system in diamond in the vicinity of LAC is studied. A method based on a complete set of commuting observables was used. It was shown that with optical pumping of the NV– — P1 system in a field of B ≈ 511.5 G at room temperature, polarization can be transferred efficiently from the electron spin of the NV center to the electron spin of the P1-center.

The modifications of the fairy tale genre in the modern Czech literature: The case of A. Mikulka O jelenovi s kulometem and J. Černický’s O Sasance
Fairy tales by two Czech authors — J. Černický and A. Mikulka — are used to consider the problem of modification of the author’s fairy tale genre in the modern Czech literature. On the one hand, writers take into account the traditions of the 20th century Czech author’s fairy tale, which was developed by many other Czech authors. In Mikulka’s works, elements of folklore fairy tale are interpreted based on the principles of surrealism, grotesque, language game, and nonsense literature...
The incidence of malaria in the Kaliningrad region in post-war years
This article considers preconditions for, factors behind, and incidence of malaria in the Kaliningrad region as compared to general infectious disease incidence.
