We consider the production of heavy quark jets at the Z-pole at the next-toleading order (NLO) using the Cambridge jet-algorithm. We study the effects of the quark mass in twoand three-jet observables and the uncertainty due to unknown higher order corrections as well as due to fragmentation. We found that the three-jet observable has remarkably small NLO corrections, which are stable with resp...

We report here the complete genome sequence (GenBank KP997032) of rabies virus strain RABV/Ursus arctos/Russia/Primorye/PO-01/2014, isolated in November 2014 from a brown bear (Ursus arctos) that attacked a person in Primorsky Krai (Russian Federation). This strain was clustered into the Eurasian genetic subgroup of genotype 1 (street rage).

In this work, we explore epidemiological dynamics by the example of tuberculosis in Russian Federation. It has been shown that the epidemiological dynamics correlates linearly with the virulence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis during the period 1987-2012. To construct an appropriate model, we have analysed (using LogLet decomposition method) epidemiological World Health Organization (WHO) data (p...

This article explores the inter-relationship of collective action within the business community, the nature of the political regime and the security of firms’ property rights. Drawing on a pair of surveys recently administered in Russia, we present evidence that post-communist business associations have begun to coordinate business influence over state actors in a manner that is sensitive to re...

We report here the draft genome sequences of eight Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated during three large food poisoning outbreaks in the Russian Federation. The strains were collected from clinical specimens and various foodstuff samples.

The article deals with the prospects for Development of the market of electronic payment systems in the context of accession of the Russian Federation to the WTO. The authors investigate the benefits of electronic payment systems for the national economy in the context of accession of the Russian Federation to the WTO, evaluate the competitiveness of the russian market of electronic payment sys...

biogeochemical investigation on s. orientalis, a flora growing on the soils derived from serpentinized dunite in the forumad area, sabzevar ophiolite has been conducted in order to examine the plant-soil relationship in chromite prospecting. due to engagement of cr in the chromite crystal structure and its non-essential role in the plant’s life cycle, ni was used as pathfinder element in biogeo...

Some chemical characteristics of root, shoot and litter of index species such as Salsola rigida, Artemisia sieberi and Stipa barbata commonly used in rangeland development projects were evaluated and compared. Chemical properties of soil under and between the above mentioned species were also studied. For this purpose, vegetation types of Stipa barbata and Artemisia sieberi - Salsola rigida wer...
