The objectives of the methodology application are formulated and expediently justified: educational, educational, communicative and general development. The program of using gaming technologies in foreign language lessons for younger students is described in detail. Each aspect of the technology includes and provides examples taken from the practice of a subject teacher. The technology takes into account the peculiarities of development, perception and adaptation in the new language environment of primary school children. The advantage of this technology lies in its versatility, this technique is described and applicable to learning any foreign language, it is variable and universal. Its practicality lies in testing, correcting and presenting the final result.

The article presents the development and investigation results of a control unit for an open-loop automatic control system (ACS), designed to stabilize a platform equipped with a weapon system without feedback. The subject of the study is the structural and functional organization of the control unit, while the objective is to implement predictive correction of weapon positioning based on a mathematical model of the “vehicle–weapon system,” aimed at improving targeting accuracy and reducing retargeting time between shots through the use of an open-loop control algorithm. The research methodology combines analysis of current trends in weapon stabilization, dynamic modeling of the “vehicle–weapon system,” development of control algorithms in Python/MATLAB environments, and hardware implementation of the control unit based on the ATMega328P microcontroller. The system includes an MPU-6050 gyroscope-accelerometer, ADS1115 analog-to-digital converter, DAC8562 digital-to-analog converter, OPA544 amplifier, Bosch Rexroth hydraulic components, and MPX-5700 pressure and DS18B20 temperature sensors. A second-order Butterworth filter is used to reduce signal noise. The results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed architecture: the control unit is capable of generating a control signal u(t) based on the internal dynamic model of the system, allowing compensation for external disturbances without feedback. The algorithm includes periodic sensor polling, data processing, control impulse generation, and system status indication. The advantages of hydraulic actuators for large-scale platforms are highlighted, including high force output, smooth motion, and overload resistance. In conclusion, the proposed control unit can be integrated into stabilization systems for military equipment, particularly unified platforms for weapon systems. Its implementation enhances firing accuracy, reduces retargeting time, and ensures reliable operation under harsh environmental conditions. Future research will focus on adapting the system to partially closed-loop architectures with feedback elements.

Abstract The anostracan Branchinecta gaini is the largest invertebrate animal in Antarctic freshwater bodies. This crustacean species playing important role in Antarctic ecosystems, was first recorded in the freshwater ponds of Petermann Island (Wilhelm Archipelago, Maritime Antarctica) during the Second French Antarctic Expedition of Jean-Baptiste Charcot in 1909. More complete official information about the distribution of this crustacean within this region of Antarctica is almost absent. Thus, present work aims to investigate the current distribution of B. gaini in the region of Argentine Islands – southern part of this archipelago. During multiyear sampling effort covering 2007, 2008, 2010 and 2020 expeditions, Branchinecta gaini was found in 32 freshwater bodies of 12 islands of the Wilhelm Archipelago region and for the first time in reservoirs of 11 islands.

The article analyzes the main directions of sustainable tourism development as a driver of service economy growth at the state and regional levels. Despite the obvious successes, tourism occupies an unreasonably modest place in Kazakhstan's GDP, which initiates a search for ways to activate its potential, especially in the regions. One of the promising types of sustainable tourism is gastronomic, which has a multiplicative effect in the economy of agricultural regions, such as the North Kazakhstan region. Using a traditional set of scientific methods, the factors of the development of gastronomic tourism have been identified, growth points have been identified based on the preferences of potential acceptors of the tourist product.

In the article, taking into account the challenges of the global information revolution, modern socio-educational realities, the authors substantiate the need for a communicative approach in teaching physics as one of the methodological approaches of a new scientific direction – psycho didactics of physics. The purpose of the article is defined as the coverage of some results of experimental teaching of physics to high school students of a secondary school based on a communicative approach with elements of bilingualism, its essence is characterized. Using a specific example, the author’s methodology for implementing this approach was first demonstrated, the need for its integration with other psycho-didactic approaches with the aim of comprehensive development of the student’s personality in the process of teaching physics is emphasized. Some experimental data are presented that make it possible, as a first approximation, to optimistically evaluate the results of testing the methodology of the communicative approach with elements of bilingualism in physics education, the prospect of further studies to obtain data on a more voluminous statistical sample is outlined , as well as to identify the possibility of using the proposed methodology in studying other disciplines in natural sciences in both secondary and high school.

Abstract The anostracan Branchinecta gaini is the largest animal, the main consumer of detritus and benthos, and a background species of energy harvester in the trophic food chains of Antarctic freshwater bodies. This crustacean species was first recorded in the freshwater reservoir of Petermann Island (Wilhelm Archipelago, Maritime Antarctica) during the Second French Antarctic Expedition of Jean-Baptiste Charcot in 1909. This work aimed to investigate the current distribution and its mechanisms of B. gaini in the Argentine Islands of this archipelago. Branchinecta gaini was found during our research within the freshwater bodies of Uruguay and Galindez Islands in 2007. In addition, this species was registered in reservoirs of three islands in 2008, six islands in 2010, and nine islands in 2020. As a result, B. gaini was found in the 32 freshwater bodies of 12 islands in the Wilhelm Archipelago region and for the first time in reservoirs of 11 islands. Different ways and mechanisms of the distribution of B. gaini in extreme Antarctic conditions were also considered.

We report on experimental evidence for a new, second tetrahedral band in $_{\phantom{\rule{0.28em}{0ex}}\phantom{\rule{0.28em}{0ex}}62}^{152}\mathrm{Sm}_{90}$. It was populated via fusion evaporation reaction $^{150}\mathrm{Nd}(\ensuremath{\alpha},2n)^{152}\mathrm{Sm}$, employing a 26 MeV beam of $\ensuremath{\alpha}$ particles from the K-130 cyclotron at the Variable Energy Cyclotron Centre, Kolkata, India. The newly observed possible mixed parity sequence with absence of $E2$ and strong indication of $E3$ transitions is consistent with the spectroscopic criteria for a tetrahedral-symmetry rotational band that could be constructed from the allowed spin-parity assignments. This structure differs from the structure of the band previously found in the same nucleus, the new one manifesting tetrahedral symmetry not accompanied by the octahedral one. Our new experimental results are interpreted in terms of group representation theory and the collective nuclear-motion theory of Bohr. We propose to generalize the notion of the tetrahedral vibrational bands and believe that our new experimental results support a number of theory predictions related to nuclear tetrahedral symmetry published earlier and bring a new light into the issue of spontaneous symmetry breaking in heavy nuclei.
