Estimating the NEO Population and Impact Risk: Past, Present and Future . ... Since most of the risk resides in the largest impactors, finding that fraction of the largest bodies, and that none of them has a significant chance of impacting in the next century or so, "retires" more than 90 % of the impact risk, including most of the risk of a globally catastrophic impact event. ... In the mid-size range, from ~150 m to ~1 km, the main risk is from tsunami generated by an ocean impact. ...

SUMMARY OF THE RESEARCH PROPOSAL by Maxim Vsemirnov Research topic: Hurwitz and (2,3)-generated matrix groups and related problems. ... The reason to study these groups arises from the fact that the class of (2, 3)-generated groups together with three cyclic groups {1}, C2 and C3 is exactly the class of quotients of the classical modular group PSL2 (Z). ... The answer is known for sporadic groups, some exceptional groups of Lie type and for the most series of classical matrix groups of large rank. ...

... Asymptotic Studies of Solar and Stellar Dynamo Waves . Firstly, we describe main concepts of the mean field dynamo-theory. Then we formulate position of the dynamo wave problem following Parker (1955) ideas. Using analogues between this and quantum mechanics theory we use the semiclassical approach for WKB asymptotic study of traveling dynamo waves. ... In addition, we outline prospects of application of this theory not only for the solar but for stellar dynamos. ...
