改革中的莫斯科民航工程学院

在俄罗斯向市场经济过渡中,俄罗斯民航教育也进入大变革时期。民航的高等院校和中等学校正在为过渡到多级学制进行准备。俄罗斯政府对教育拨款减少,部分毕业生找不到工作,教师工资低,给民航教育的发展造成很大困难。俄罗斯唯一一所培养民航工程干部的学院——莫斯科民航工程学院,在变革时期发挥主观能动性,采取有效措施,稳定了教师和科研队伍,初步经受了困难考验。     

Discovery of a new chert-permineralized microbiota in the Proterozoic Buxa Formation of the Ranjit window, Sikkim, northeast India, and its astrobiological implications

For the foreseeable future, the search for evidence of past life in rocks acquired from other planets will be constrained by the amount of sample available and by the fidelity of preservation of any fossils present. What amount of rock is needed to establish the existence of past life? To address this question, we studied a minute amount of rock collected from cherty dolomites of the Proterozoic Buxa Formation in the metamorphically altered tectonically active northeastern Himalaya. In particular, we investigated 2 small petrographic thin sections-one from each of 2 bedded chert horizons exposed in the Ranjit River stratigraphic section northwest of Rishi, Sikkim, India-that together comprise an area of approximately 5 cm(2) (about the size of a US postage stamp) and have a total rock weight of approximately 0.1 g. Optical microscopy, confocal laser scanning microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy and imagery demonstrate that each of the thin sections contains a rich assemblage of 3-dimensionally permineralized organic-walled microfossils. This study, the first report of Proterozoic microfossils in units of the Ranjit tectonic window, demonstrates that firm evidence of early life can be adduced from even a minuscule amount of fossil-bearing ancient rock.     

图波列夫设计局主要精力设计民机

图波列夫设计局是前苏联历史最长的设计局,于1923年10月成立,在71年历史中,该设计局设计了众多的飞机。据统计,仅上天试飞和投入使用的型号(合改型)逾100种。该设计局擅长设计轰炸机和旅客机。俄罗斯空军现役中的轰炸机均是该设计局设计的,当今俄罗斯航空客运量的65％是该设计局设计的飞机承担的。 在军品订货下降的形势下,该设     

俄罗斯发展地效飞行器

自60年代以来,俄罗斯中央水翼设计局已经制造了几架400～500吨级的地效飞机,俄国称其为机翼地效(Wing-in-ground简称WIG)飞机。这些飞机采用同样的基本布局:T形尾翼,机身两侧、座舱之后各装4台喷气式发动机。目前该设计局正在制造一架称为“母鹞”的新型地效飞机,该机在下诺夫哥罗德工厂进行总装,机体总装工作即将完成。 “母鹞”地效飞机 “母鹞”地效飞机原本是为俄罗斯海军研制的,计划用于岸基反舰和海上营救。由于军费开支大幅度削减,俄罗斯海军无力购买该机,中央水翼设计局现在竭力寻求西方对该机的财政支持。
