Sad Information about I. Ivanchenko


The day before his 80th birthday, Iosif Moiseevich Ivanchenko, doctor of physical and mathematical sciences, professor, chief researcher at the JINR Laboratory of Information Technologies, died.
I.M. Ivanchenko made a great contribution to the formation and development of computing at the Institute. The programs developed by him were included in the first basic library of standard JINR programs. The work of I.M. Ivanchenko in this area was successfully continued in collaboration with CERN employees: problem-oriented software packages have been created that are widely used in world scientific and physical centers.

New publication in Nature Physics with JINR participation


On 13 April, a scientific paper by an international scientific group was published in Nature Physics. A LIT staff member O. Chuluunbaatar and a BLTP employee Yu. V. Popov were members of the group in the frames of JINR international cooperation. The group conducted a kinematically complete experimental measurement of characteristics of Compton scattering at free atoms using the highly efficient method of COLD Target Recoil Ion Momentum Spectroscopy (COLTRIMS). The group also provided a relevant theoretical description of it.

Experimentalists from the Goethe University (Frankfurt am Main, Germany) targeted a strong photon beam of the Petra III synchrotron (DESY, Hamburg) through the helium supersonic flow.

The COLTRIMS method allowed measuring not only the scattered electron momentum but also the momentum of helium recoil-ion for separate scattering processes. Taking into account the law of pulse energy conservation, it gave an opportunity to fully restore the kinematic properties of the scattering process. Moreover,... read more...

A Three-Point Grid Based Polynomial Prediction


We are glad to bring to your attention a new preprint «A Three-Point Grid Based Polynomial Prediction» P5-2020-1 published by the JINR Publishing Department. The author of the paper is N. D. Dikusar.
Abstract:
Within the framework of the recently proposed basic element method (BEM), a new approach is made to the solution of the problem of polynomial prediction and extrapolation of the sixth order for smooth functions. The one step forward forecast is performed using two fifth degree polynomials. The formulae for the coefficients of BEM-polynomials depend on the grid step, the values of the function and its first derivative at the nodes of two three-point grids. The method was tested on the numerical solution of the Cauchy problem for ODE. The efficiency of numerical integration is ensured by a threefold calculation of the right side of the equation and the O(h5) accuracy of the solution. The BEM-prediction can serve as the core for the development and creation of effective algorithms for numerically solving Cauchy problems for ODEs, including stiff ones.
