Different types of plastid showed appreciable enzymic activity so that during the period 1948-1951 we began to investigate not only the localization of different enzymes in chloroplasts but also the possibility that they formed a site of protein synthesis. Plastid proteins are very complex and are mainly encountered as proteids (lipo-, nuclco-. chromo-, and glyco-protcins). Thcir clectrophorctic properties and amino acid composition change during the ontogenctic development of the organism. Tbe changes of amino acid composition are of such basic charsocter that they suggest an appreciable renewal of the chloroplast protein during development. ne 6-ijor nuclcic acid fraction of the cbloroplasts consists of RNA. con. taining all the main functional types. Smaller quantities of DNA are present. I'lic nuclcotide composition of the chloroplastic DNA shows essential differences from that of nuclear DNA.

A theory of mutual reaction between dislocations,and Card 2/7 T1_-48341,;;65- ACCESSION NRi A.P5009497 point defects was developed. Wametallic Perromagnetic compounds were oynthe- sized, as were neu ferrites with a rectangulAr b,'Vateresis loop for high- temperatfire instruments. A new effoct of magnetic resistivity oscillation in semiconductors was studied theoretically and experimentally. Progress in quantum.1 i electronics was reflected in the new types of semiconductor quantum, generators. Investigations in nonlinear optics -were centered on obtainirg.of light-osailla- tion harmonics. Applied spectroscopy research resulted in the design of a number 0 f instrLmenti for emission spectrum analysks of difficultly fusible and super- conductive allo.-s and for automatic controPlof metallurgical processes. Tech- nology of luminescence analysis wasimproved. Superior x-ray screens, "Simul'tan-l" and "Simulltan-2,11 wera invented. Experimentation with the phys- Ics of ultrasound and, in particular, with nonlinear acoustics, led to the discovery of intensive currents in acoustical fields in gaseous media. -In the field of physical electronics, the study of the statistics of secondary electron emission for a metal a dielectrict and a semiconductor i-tas carried on. A new trend in the research of plasma physi.c5 ims developed. Astronomers completed the4- 15-year series of photographic observation of\16mall planets. Fine struc- turo and strong nonhomogenoous magnetic fields were discovered in the active solar areas; contrary to common belief, the existence of a general magnetic fieldl- of the sun as a dipole field or an evenly magnetized sphere was not sustained. Card 3/7 L V341- 5 -6 C CESSION NR: AP3009497 A The compilation of a catalog and the construction of the spectra of discrete cosmic radiation sources in the decameter wave region are being continued,, In the field of energetics, the main stress was put on study of the balance of rualst the design of new types oe plants, the search for a direct transforma- tion of thermal into electrical energy, and atomic energy. New technical pro- cedures for the production of structural materials for temperiatures up to 3000C are ready. Special attention was g.-,.van to the study of stability and turbulency mechaniam in plasma. Important ach*- evements wore made in the theory of automatic control. and information transfer. j, M the field of earth sciences, a general theory of tides and oscillations of the eArth was developed. A theoretical basis was worked out for the develojeent of long-term hydrodynamic methods of weather forecasting for the entire g:lobe; "polar" equations of hydrodynamics were derived for,~ghort-term weather forecasts. Progressively greater areas were cov- ered by detailed g2o 1 and ocesnol!~~icall-bxploration; geochemical research was improved by the introduSqon-Rf*Ta-w- analytical methods. Geographers com- pleted the compilation of a tbree-volume climatic atlas of the SSSRi Cybernetic research was directed toward further development of its theoretical basis and I its application to dIfferent branches of agricultural, aiUentific, and social activity. Logical language for the presentation of synthesis algorithms and -the design of corresponding programmin systems were worked out.

Special attention wag given to the study of the effect of different extreme actions on hman and animal physiological functions. Ecological physiology was developed.

Attention is focused on those areas ,.of space biology most gernane to future, prolonged manne'd_orbital__flights~~ ,,..,2.nd_flights to tile mcon and other planets. Special importance is accorded to studies concerning the reaction of living organisms and their cells to low and very low temperatures. Soviet research in this area has made possible the artificial induceamt of total to preserve organisms without damaging the viability of individ- ual cells. In all likelihood, deep-freezing will not prove a barrier to tile preservation of bacteria, yeasts, and invertebrate organisms. Study to determine values for safe and reversible deep-freezing of living sys- tems is under way. Serious artention will be given to the molecular and VolluLar mechanisms of resistance to deep and very deep freezing. In lerms of space biology, techniques for freezing higher animals in order Card 113 ACC NR: AP6014997 to iniuce artificial 1~ypothermia and hibernation are be'ing studied. Since It is known that cooled orf,,~-,nisms better resist hypoxia, radiation, and other deleterious factors, it is possible that this approach may find application in the manned spaceflight program. . The effects of vacuum in a space environment are no less important. A. Imshenetskiy and his associates have revealed the hip ,11 resistance of some organ-isms to this fictor. Some algae have been found to withstand a 10-9-10-9 mm Hg vacuum. Cytological studies of the effects of shortwave UV radial:ion are also of practical importance to space biology.

A rigorous, general spin-lattice relaxation theory was presented, and a number of EPR problems were examined from a unified point of view.

An EPR spectrometer has been developed and made ready for small-. series production; it operates at the tempera:ture of liquid helium (SKB special design office) for scientific instrument building of the Institute of Organic Chemistry).

AP7001865 has been completed; one ser-~es for the investigation of molecular structure and energetics, while the other is used for the study of thormodynarnic i properties of solids. Neither instrument has any counterpart in world ,.production (SK'B for analytical, instrument building of the AS USSR and ;.Leningrad State University). A pH meter/automatic titrimeter was developed, which has an j accuracy of 0.005 p1-1 units (SKB of the Institute of Organic Chemistry AS USSR). I An instrument was produced for rapid oxygen analysis in titanium- aluminum alloys, carbides, nitrides, and other materials (Institute of 0-ochemistry and Analytical Chemistry AN SSSR). A universal, automa ed-Mb-oratOTTdistillation aggrega:te-*wag designed !and constructed with a fractionating capacity of up to 100 theoretical lpldtes (iKB of the AS EstSSR).- These, and many other developments were reported by Academician .. IiSisakyan. Some represented new trends. others were extensions and- irefinements of older work.
