Physicists Discover What Happens Inside a Stable Vortex
Large vortices with characteristic spiral arms are often observed in the atmosphere and the ocean. Physicists from HSE University have explained how these structures form and why they retain their shape. The researchers found that velocities at points located along the same vortex arc remain correlated even over long distances. At the same time, this correlation weakens rapidly with increasing distance from the vortex centre. These differences help explain the formation of spiral arms and may improve models of atmospheric and oceanic currents. The findings have been published in Physical Review Fluids.

Tokh. A pāśrāk*, (?) B paśrāk "уступ, терраса / gradin, terrasse / ledge, terrace"

P. 251–255.
Itkin I.

The article discusses the Tocharian A token pāśrāk <*>, the existence of which was previously only hypothetical, and the meaning remained unknown. Basing on the analysis of contexts, we concluded that the word pāśrāk <*> is found in the descriptions of the sacred mountain Meru and has the meaning "ledge, terrace". It is suggested that the cognate of the Tocharian A pāśrāk <*> is the Tocharian B hapax legomenon paśrāk.

О природе латинского названия рыбы sargiacus (Arist. Hist. An. 610b6)
Vorobyev G., В кн.: Индоевропейское языкознание и классическая филология - XXII. Материалы чтений, посвященных памяти профессора Иосифа Моисеевича Тронского, 18-20 июня 2018 г.: СПб.: Наука, 2018. С. 333–345.
Latin translations of Aristotle’s Historia animalium had been an important source of scientific animal names at least until the 18th c. Theodore Gaza, the author of the most influential translation, made in the 3rd quarter of the 15th c., rendered many animal names using neologisms of his own coinage. Thus, the word sargiacus was supposed to be his translation of ...

Suspended affixation with Tocharian adjectival suffix A -ṣi / B -ṣṣe and its possible parallel in Old Uighur
Kuritsyna A., Journal of Language Relationship 2018 Vol. 16 No. 4 P. 265–276
In this paper, I discuss a hitherto undescribed property of the Tocharian adjectival suffixes (most commonly A -ṣi / B -ṣṣe, more rarely also -tstse and -ññe) to be shared by conjuncts. I will attempt to prove that such constructions are based on coordinated nouns and not on dvandva-type compounds, and compare Tocharian data with the situation in ...

Aristotle’s 'De animalibus' had been the main source of scientific knowledge about animals till the 18th century, and Latin translations served as an important vehicle for its transmission.

Preterit and imperfect of the verb “to be” in Tocharian: Contextual analysis against “fine semantics”
Itkin I., Kuritsyna A., , in: Time and Language. Book of abstracts.: Turku: [б.и.], 2016. P. 37–38.
Tocharian languages (Tocharian A and Tocharian B) have two past tenses, traditionally named as “imperfect” and “preterit”, however their exact semantic and functional correlation remains disputable. The verb A nas- / B nes- “to be” whose grammaticalized Ipf and Pt forms are used as copula with different parts of speech represents a special case in ...

Именная инкорпорация в древнефризских глаголах: новые данные

The paper discusses 10 Old Frisian verbal constructions that can be considered noun-incorporated verbs. Nominal incorporation is wide-spread in Indo-European. In Germanic, nominal incorporation as applied to verbs is not productive as a word-formation tool, except for Frisian. S. Dyk, a linguist and an expert in Frisian, has carried out a comprehensive research on noun-incorporation in ...
