“…Usually formed with gnate (or gnata) rather than puer (puella) or indeed fili (filia), it may in fact have been to some extent quite consciously Greek. 69 This may mean that there was little risk of the misinterpretation that might have arisen in Greek by addressing slaves in an analogous way; but it also suggests that in general Latin did not make wide use of forms of address with the structure [noun in the vocative] + [qualifier consisting of a personal name in the genitive].…”

In Quintilian and Festus we read that slaves were, in some antique age, known simply by a derivation from their masters' names; thus Marcipor from Marcus, Lucipor from Lucius, and so on. The practice is also mentioned by Pliny and the grammarians Probus and Priscian. 1 The-por element has been explained as puer, undergoing syncope and passing from an-o-to a consonantal stem in the third declension. It is attached to the genitive of the master's praenomen, the long final syllable of which has, in some cases at least, been shortened. 2 Many have accepted this reconstruction. 3 It has also been noted that Varro bewailed some sort of change in the form or nature of slaves' names, a change which it is easy to identify as the desuetude of these names in-por. 4 As Mommsen observed, names like this are hardly names at all; more like labels. 5 They certainly have a beguilingly archaic flavour that sits well with the legal conception of slaves as property. But the same historian regretted the absence of a useful explanation of their origin and usage. 6 This absence persists today. It will be argued here that this is because there is really no salvaging the standard account of these (in practice, very rare) names, to which scholars have nonetheless generally, if at times uncertainly, clung.

“…The shape of the luminosity function of galaxies yields magnitude limited galaxy catalogs which are dominated in number by L * galaxies (Dickey, 1988). Increasing the magnitude limit of a catalog thus largely increases the number of L * galaxies at large distances while it adds only a few to the nearer dwarfs.…”

Two surveys for intrinsically faint galaxies towards nearby voids have been conducted at the MPI für Astronomie, Heidelberg. One selected targets from a new diameter limited (Φ ≥ 5 ′′ ) catalog with morphological criteria while the other used digitized objective prism Schmidt plates to select mainly HII dwarf galaxies. For some 450 galaxies, redshifts and other optical data were obtained. We studied the spatial distribution of the sample objects, their luminosity function, and their intrinsic properties.Most of the galaxies belong to already well known sheets and filaments. But we found about a dozen highly isolated galaxies in each sample (nearest neighborhood distance ≥ 3h −1 75 M pc). These tend to populate additional structures and are not distributed homogeneously throughout the voids. As our results on 'void galaxies' still suffer from small sample statistics, I also tried to combine similar existing surveys of nearby voids to get further hints on the larger structure and on the luminosity function of the isolated galaxies. No differences in the luminosity function of sheet and void galaxies could be found.The optical and infrared properties of both samples are in the normal range for samples dominated by late-type dwarfs. Follow-up HI studies show that the isolated dwarfs in both samples have unusual high amount of neutral gas for a given luminosity.

Abstract. The mathematical model of heat and mass transfer processes with phase transition is developed. It allows analyzing of integral characteristics for the condenser setup of independent power-supply plant with the organic Rankine cycle. Different kinds of organic liquids can be used as a coolant and working substance. The temperatures of the working liquid at the condenser outlet under different values of outside air temperature are determined. The comparative analysis of the utilization efficiency of different cooling systems and organic coolants is carried out.
