The physical foundations of low-energy neutron scattering methods for studying the structure and dynamics of matter in a condensed state are described. The textbook is written on the basis of courses of lectures given by the authors at the Faculty of Physics of Lomonosov Moscow State University.

The book consists of three parts. The first part contains a consistent presentation of the principles of the theory of low-energy neutron scattering. The second part is devoted to the methods of obtaining and forming neutron beams, as well as their registration. The third part is devoted to basic experimental methods of neutronography, describes the principles of the device of experimental installations and measurements, as well as methods of interpretation of experimental data based on the theory described in the first part.

For students, postgraduates and researchers working or beginning to work in the field of research of physical, chemical and biological systems at the microscopic level.

The textbook is an introduction to methods of implementing computational algorithms for parallel computers. The main goal is to teach the reader to independently develop the most effective programs for such computers. The issues of parallelization of specific algorithms are considered using numerous examples. For students, postgraduates, researchers, programmers and anyone who wants to learn how to develop programs for parallel computers.

As part of the curriculum, this textbook provides a fairly general, complete basic understanding of the basic (including classical) physiological concepts and principles used in the study of the blood coagulation system. The application of modern biochemical approaches to solving the problem of physiological regulation of the blood coagulation system makes it possible to understand the mechanisms of interaction between the processes of coagulation and anticoagulation.

The textbook consists of two parts, the first of which covers modern theoretical concepts of the physiological foundations of blood clotting processes occurring in the body, their relationship with the function of the body's anticoagulation system. The second part is devoted to the practical application of the theoretical knowledge on hemostasis and includes the implementation of tasks in the direction of professional activity of students who study primary and plasma hemostasis, humoral agents of the anticoagulation system of the blood, the relationship of the coagulation and insulin systems of the body. This is the most important difference between this textbook and other books on the physiology and biochemistry of blood clotting.

The textbook examines the current state of the hemostasis system and introduces readers to blood research methods used in physiological and biochemical laboratories and medical practice.

It is intended for students and teachers of biological and medical universities, researchers, doctors.

The textbook provides a complete course in basic physical geochemistry. It considers the subject and methods of physical geochemistry as a science of the physicochemical regularities of mineral, rock and ore formation and gives general points of the thermodynamics of equilibrium natural systems, which are a special type of systems with completely mobile components. It derives main thermodynamic relationships that characterize natural processes and shows their application. The book gives a detailed description of the questions of theory, topology, methods for constructing diagrams used in geochemistry, petrology, and the theory of mineral deposits.
For students, graduate students and all specialists involved in the study of physical and chemical regularities of natural processes.

The textbook consistently examines all the main features of academic writing, the difficulties that arise when mastering it, and the possible mistakes that lie in wait for researchers in the course of scientific work. The examination of the main types of academic texts, stages of academic work, rules for editing and presenting scientific research is accompanied by rich illustrative material and practical tasks. The textbook is intended for university students studying in the field of "Philosophy", as well as for a wide range of readers interested in the problems of academic writing and the presentation of scientific work.

The textbook (its first edition was published in 1997) presents a picture of the organic world of the past as it came into existence 3.8 billion years ago. It outlines general provisions and basic concepts of paleontology including the history of paleontology, types of fossil preservation, evolution patterns; habitat, organisms’ conditions and life in marine and terrestrial environments; bionomics of the World Ocean; biomineralization and fossilization; the role of organisms in sedimentation and rock formation; importance of paleontology for geological and biological sciences. The systematic part of the book contains a description of 30 types, 58 classes and 132 orders of the five kingdoms (bacteria, cyanobionts, plants, fungi and animals), and 6 major mammal families for vertebrates. The final part deals with the evolution of the organic world from the Archeozoic era to the present day and examines in detail the Paleozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic periods. All the sections are accompanied by a set of tasks, exercises and a variety of illustrative material including four fly-leave illustrations, 335 drawings (often composite), 33 tables and 26 diagrams.
For students and teachers of geology, geography and biology at universities and colleges as well as for museum workers and all lovers of paleontology.

The textbook defines the concept and subject of mining law, characterizes the content of subsoil legislation, examines the right of ownership of subsoil, the resources contained in it, extracted minerals, and the structure of the state subsoil fund. It sets out the procedures for granting access to subsoil, the procedure for using subsoil, the specifics of the legal regime of subsoil plots of federal and local significance, the system of payments and taxes, control methods, and legal liability for subsoil use.

Intended for university students studying at the directions "Geology", "Prospecting and Exploration of Minerals", "Natural Resource Management", students of master's programmes of the corresponding profile.
