However, the system of paradiplomacy that has developed between Russia and the EU, and in particular, Finland, is a vivid example ...

Estimation of errors of detecting the condition of a u bitqubit
... To describe this action we introduce an auxiliary subsystem, which is in the entangled states with the original system. This model allowed us to estimate establishment of the steady state of the combined system «double quantum dot — quantum point contact», and identify it as a measurement time and estimate the errors of the qubit states detection.

Evidence from Vicent Rios and Lisa Gianmoena’s work on Italy suggests that temperature and humidity are crucial factors in the spread of the virus, alongside social ties and contacts [9]. Thus, a comprehensive approach would involve examining the influence of the Baltic Sea, which extends to varying degrees across several regions, including St. Petersburg, Leningrad, Kaliningrad, Novgorod, Pskov, Murmansk, and the Republic ...
Transmitting antenna system for radio frequency methods of substance research
The paper considers the design of the transmitting antenna system intended for use in the technique of radio-frequency methods of substance research and justifies its advantages. It is advisable to use the device when studying objects located outside the receiving and transmitting circuits. At the same time, the operating frequencies for which it is designed, occupy a wide spectrum, covering the ranges from myriameter to decameter waves, which implies a high uniformity of the radiated power...
Non-contact method for measuring the specific electrical resistance of liquid metals in the high temperature range
The article offers a new, non-contact method of measuring the specific electrical resistance of liquid metals in the high-temperature range, which is exceptionally simple. The essence of the method is the measurement of the electromotive force induced by a high-frequency electromagnetic field in two circuits of different diameters placed coaxially in the middle of a cylindrical sample, which is a thin-walled ampoule filled with some low-melting metal. The authors substantiate the feasibility of a...

The article concludes that in spite of shortcomings and negative effects for both countries, the mechanism of the mechanism of local border traffic in 2015, launched in 2012, became an important development tool for socio-cultural and business contacts between Kaliningrad and the neighboring province of the Republic of Poland. Rejection of this instrument seriously affected the intensity of the local contacts between the regions located on both sides of the border.

Models for countering the segregation of ethnoreligious immigrant areas in Denmark and Sweden

The obtained results showed that non-compliance / violation of active listening rules and principles hinders the establishment and maintenance of contact between interlocutors throughout the communication process. Such deviations lead to a disruption of the unity between the speaker and the listener, a disturbance of the semantic coordination of communicative partners’ utterances. As a result,...

The Accession of Finland and Sweden to NATO: Geopolitical implications for Russia’s position in the Baltic Sea region

This is aggravated by a significant extension — over 1,300 km — of the land border between Russia and NATO in Finland, and an even greater increase in the line of contact with the Alliance in the Baltic Sea from north to south. Moreover, there is a desire among Western military-political experts and in the media, with a direct interest in justifying the swift integration of the armed forces of new NATO members ...

In Finland, game software development companies tend to concentrate in university cities, as staff communication and inter-firm contacts are essential for them. In Helsinki, knowledge-based firms are usually located closer to the urban core and to universities, whereas the most narrowly focused clusters may be found in relatively peripheral locations [10], [11].

All three philosophers reject conventional translation, proposing instead to consider ordinary words as philosophical terms. Despite the fact that such an approach may make the text appear contradictory to familiar norms, the philosophers insist ...

Amongst other significant factors are psychological considerations [3], attachment to ...
