... In electron-positron colliders, effect of the lattice modification by opposing bunch focusing on the equilibrium radiation emittance is important at high values of the space charge parameter, so one should correctly evaluate this dynamic radiation emittance of the weak beam, which may differ a lot from the nominal emittance, already in the linear beam-beam force model. ... The linearized beam-beam force is equivalent to focusing insertion in linear lattice of the collider. ...

... It satisfies the set of WDVV (associativity) equations in canonical variables. The geometric/integrable content of corrections in 1/N is an important, still unresolved, problem. The only way to construct systematically these corrections is to solve the set of loop equations. We find the subleading correction (the torus approximation) and discuss its possible singularities of the answer in the set of new parameters S_i. ...

... Line radiative transfer in C 18 O, HCO + , and CS lines is considered in a spherically symmetric chemo-dynamical model of a starless core, evolution of which is driven by the ambipolar diffusion. Theoretical line profiles are compared to observational data on the well-known L1544 core, which is one of possible candidates for collapsing protostellar clouds. ... Comparison between modelled and observed spectra suggests that L1544 has flattened structure and is observed at some inclination. ...
