We present abundance determinations, in particular of carbon, and C/O ratios, for 11 Galactic bulge planetary nebulae (PN) based on our low resolution UV data from IUE observations and optical spectrophotometry from the Anglo-Australian Telescope. We compare the observed abundances with those predicted by dredge-up theory for the high metallicity Galactic bulge. The sample abundances are also contrasted with the abundances found for PN in the Galactic disk. The mean C/O ratio for the bulge PN is significantly lower than that found for Galactic disk PN. Further, we present an abundance analysis of the very metal-poor bulge PN M2-29. From an analysis of the differential extinction found from the observed ratios of the He ii 1640,4686Å lines, we find that the ultraviolet reddening law towards the bulge is steeper than in the solar neighbourhood.

This article presents the results of the analysis of energy distribution of optical radiation emitted by electrical discharges in insulating liquids, such as synthetic ester, natural ester, and mineral oil. The measurements of optical radiation were carried out on a system of needle–needle type electrodes and on a system for surface discharges, which were immersed in brand new insulating liquids. Optical radiation was recorded using optical spectrophotometry method. On the basis of the obtained results, potential possibilities of using the analysis of the energy distribution of optical radiation as an additional descriptor for the recognition of individual sources of electric discharges were indicated. The results can also be used in the design of various types of detectors, as well as high-voltage diagnostic systems and arc protection systems.

This paper presents the results of analysis of a solid dielectric’s influence on the phenomena associated with the signals emitted by surface partial discharges. Three types of electrode systems were tested, in which solid dielectrics made of pressboard, Teflon, and glass were used. The emission of such signals as radio waves in the Ultra high frequency (UHF) range and optical radiation was analyzed. The measurements were carried out in the insulation systems most commonly used in electrical power equipment, i.e., mineral oil and air. UHF and optical spectrophotometry methods were used to register the emitted signals. The obtained results indicate that the type of material from which the dielectric solid is made may have a potential impact on some ranges of emitted electromagnetic waves during the surface electrical discharges. The research topic undertaken is important in issues associated with high-voltage insulation systems and in particular with surface discharges, which are often the cause of their damage.

Nearly simultaneous FUV and optical spectrophotometry of X-ray selected Seyfert galaxies has revealed an average Ly α/H β ratio of 22, a positive correlation between the ratio Ly α/H β and the width of the lines, and additional Ly α emission in the wings of one source which is not matched by emission in the Balmer line wings. However, we find no distinguishing features in the continuum emission from these X-ray selected objects compared with other samples. If the correlation between Ly α/H β and the width of the lines is found to apply to larger samples of Seyferts, it may be that our objects appear Ly α bright because they are also broad-lined compared with other samples.

AbstractThe results of the studies of uranium valent states in the borosilicate glasses incorporating the components of uranium-containing sludge of Mining and Chemical Combine (MCC, Zheleznogorsks.) is presented in this work. The glasses were made under oxidative and reducing conditions.The optical spectrophotometry, nuclear gamma-resonance (NGR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) showed that glasses produced under oxidative conditions are characterized by the presence of only U(6+), while U(4+) in the reducing conditions is present along with U(6+). The ratio U(6+)/to U(4+) varies in depending on the synthesis conditions.The glass samples synthesized under oxidative conditions were researched at initial solid state. The others synthesized under reducing conditions was dissolved preliminary without distort of uranium valency.The effect of U(4+)/U(6+) ratio on the uranium leach rates from the glasses has been studied at 90° using MCC-1 test.
