This research examines a chronic problem in academic settings – inappropriate copying or misuse of source materials–i.e., plagiarism. We conduct a computer-based writing experiment to examine the effects of psychological and situational characteristics on subjects’ propensity to misappropriate text. Specifically, we examine to what extent such misappropriations may be explained by available tec...

Using 3.3 pb of data collected with the CMD-2 detector in the 720 – 840 MeV c.m. energy range, the branching fraction of the conversion decay ω → πee has been measured: B(ω → πee) = (8.19 ± 0.71± 0.62) · 10. The upper limits for the branching fractions of the following conversion decays have been obtained at the 90% confidence level: B(ρ → πee) < 1.6 · 10, B(ρ → ηee) < 0.7 · 10 and B(ω → ηee) <...

Because the electrical installations are nowadays a lot of options and variants, it is necessary to evaluate these complex installation process from several perspectives and objectively. Due to the complexity of evaluation of electrical installation is design a methodology that uses multi-criteria analysis MCA.
