      An analysis of existing methods and means of reducing the heating of the final part of the stator core of powerful gas-cooled turbogenerators was carried out. The main shortcomings of these methods and tools have been revealed. Various design factors that affect the distribution of the magnetic field and temperature in the end zone of a powerful electric machine are analyzed. On the basis of a complex study of electromagnetic and thermal processes with the help of mathematical and physical modeling, a new constructive solution of the…

     This is Volume II in a three-volume set on the Behavior of Radionuclides in the Environment, focusing on Chernobyl. Now, so many years after the Chernobyl accident, new data is emerging and important new findings are being made. The book reviews major research achievements concerning the behavior of Chernobyl-derived radionuclides, including their air transport and resuspension, mobility and bioavailability in the soil-water environment, vertical and lateral migration in soils and sediments, soil-to-plant and soil-to-animal transfer, and water-to-aqueous biota transfer. The long-term dynamics of radionuclides in aquatic ecosystems are…
