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.

The Noëtic Orientations Test (NOT): A Multiscale Russian Modification of the Purpose-in-Life Test

P. 229–240.
Leontiev D., Osin E.

The chapter presents the Noëtic Orientations Test, a multiscale Russian modification of the well-known Purpose in Life test, one of the most popular diagnostic tools elaborated on the basis of logotherapy and existential analysis. However, the Noëtic Orientations Test is not just a Russian adaptation of the Purpose in Life test. Besides the changes in some items and transformation of rating scale, exploratory factor analyses and recent confirmatory factor analyses allowed to transform the uniscale Purpose in Life test into a multiscale test, differentiating the temporal aspects of life meaning. After its first publication in 1992, the Noëtic Orientations Test has been successfully used in thousands of studies providing extensive evidence of its validity and utility
