Úvod do porovnávacej morfológie živočíchov

E-book

Andrej Mock

The structure of the animal body is extremely varied. Each species has its distinctive morphological features, which bears as a testimony to long-term development and belonging to the developmental lineage. At the same time, the body has been tested for a long time by natural conditions, resulting in unique adaptations to the environment and life strategy. Despite this admirable variety - which includes both recent and fossil animals and which we have far from mapped – a comparison of body parts brings knowledge we can generalize: the main building principles, and boundaries within which phenotypic diversity is realized.

Comparative animal morphology today uses the latest methodological material and knowledge from other disciplines, from genetics, molecular biology and experimental embryology, through progressive imaging methods (e.g. electron microscopy, computer micro-tomography) and the possibilities of subsequent software processing of image material (measurement, staining, etc.) to the view of physics, chemistry, statics and geometry on the structures (to nanostructures) of the living body. Detailed knowledge of historical and contemporary conditions on Earth is an important interpretative context in the study of animal morphology. Surprisingly, the knowledge accumulated after centuries of research is now rapidly supplemented by new knowledge, and often the traditional knowledge is subsequently reinterpreted. Finally, and no less important, in studying animal (and human) morphology, we learn surprising knowledge about ourselves.

The author of the presented textbook had the ambition in a simplified form to introduce the reader, especially the student of biological studies, into a dynamic and fascinating scientific discipline, as the current comparative animal morphology is.

Systematika cievnatých rastlín, 5. vydanie

E-book

E-book

Pavol Mártonfi

The university textbook deals with the latest knowledge from the systematics of vascular plants in a clear manner. Vascular plants arose in the Silurian period in the Paleozoic, when the first primitive plants moved from water to dry land, which required evolutionary progress in the morphological and anatomical structure of these plants. During about 420 million years of the existence of vascular plants, several of their main groups have evolved: the spore vascular plants, including the lycopods (branch Lycopodiophyta) and group of ferns and related plants (branch Monilophyta), and the seed plants, including gymnosperms (branch Gymnospermae) and angiosperms ( Angiospermae), which currently dominate among plants. The textbook provides a brief but comprehensive overview of the main groups, orders and families of plants with their description, distribution, main representatives, while also addressing the useful properties of selected species. The work is complemented by an overview of the system of plants by Cronquist, Tachtadžjan, APG and an overview of the families of the Slovak flora, as well as a taxonomic index.

Janetta Nestorová Dická

The university handbook Elementals of Population Geography and Demography - Part I, as an introduction to population studies, is primary study material for students of the geography study program, as well as for students of the Information Systems in Public Administration study program at the Pavel Jozef Šafárik University in Košice, but also for the wider public interested in about population phenomena and their spatiality. Among other things, the handbook offers the latest population reports in the world and its regions. The aim of the handbook is to introduce young geographers to the basics of population research, which includes the most frequently used tools and methods in geographic analysis. The first part of the handbook contains an introduction to the scientific disciplines of population geography and demography with an overview of basic sources of demographic data. The next part discusses the issue of anthropogenesis, i.e. the development of humans from our ancestors and the spatial spread of humans across our Earth. Part of this part is the recent development of the world population and changes in the size and distribution of the global population over time. The last part analyses how the population is distributed in the world and in relation to the geographical components of the space.

Exactly Solvable Models in Statistical Physics

E-book

E-book

Jozef Strečka

Over the past fifteen years, the course on ’Exactly Solvable Models in Statistical Physics’ has become an indispensable ground of the study programme ’Theoretical Physics’ at Faculty of Science of Pavol Jozef ˇSaf´arik University in Koˇsice. At first, the course based on the first edition of this textbook was intended for undergraduate students only, however, I have later prepared follow-up course taught at a postgraduate level on demand of several ambitious students who wished to continue in studying this exciting research field. It is already more than decade when our students enrolled in the study programme ’Theoretical Physics’ graduate from ’Introduction to Exactly Solvable Models in Statistical Physics’ at a master level and ’Exactly Solvable Models in Statistical Physics’ at a postgraduate level. Of course, it was necessary somehow to rearrange topics for the courses of undergraduate and postgraduate students. More specifically, a few more challenging topics concerned with exact solutions of 2D Ising model (chapter 3) were moved to a more advanced course intended for the postgraduate students, while an introductory course intended for the undergraduate students was contrarily supplemented with a few new topics requiring the second edition of this textbook. The second edition of this textbook thus contains a completely new chapter 4 devoted to the exact solution of the Ising model on the Bethe lattice using the method of exact recursion relations, while the chapter 5 was supplemented by exact results for ground state of a few frustrated Heisenberg spin models using the variational method. It is my hope that the next edition of this textbook will come soon and it will involve all topics specifically taught within the postgraduate course as well.

Počítačová fyzika II

E-book

E-book

Milan Žukovič

This textbook is intended for master's degree students and is a follow-up to the Computational Physics I course studied at the bachelor's level. The content of the textbook Computational Physics II focuses on stochastic methods of solving physical problems, mainly on Monte Carlo (MC) simulation of many-particle systems. The focus on this computationally intensive approach is motivated by the gradual increase in the computing capacities of ordinary computers as well as the introduction of high-performance computing clusters. This has led to significant progress in the development of new simulation techniques, thanks to which MC simulations have found application in various areas of research and application practice. Considering the main research focus of the department, this text is particularly devoted to the presentation of basic and more advanced MC simulation techniques applied to a simple Ising spin model in order to investigate its magnetic, thermodynamic and critical properties. The next part is devoted to MC simulations of random processes. It focuses on the simplest but also the most basic random walk process and demonstrates its applications in financial analysis and the solution of a quantum system described by the time-dependent Schrödinger equation. The last part is dedicated to the basics of molecular dynamics, applied to simulating the classical movement of atoms in a given force field. By mastering the problems addressed in this course, students will obtain a potential tool for working out of their diploma theses, or a methodology useful for their further scientific and research practice in the field of investigating of complex systems. The lectured topic is subsequently exercised in the form of preparing projects implemented in the freely distributable software Octave, which is easy on the user's programming skills and which students have the opportunity to familiarize themselves with in the previous study.

Daniela Kladeková

Tento vysokoškolský učebný text je určený študentom chemických a ekologických odborov na Prírodovedeckej fakulte Univerzity P. J. Šafárika v Košiciach a má poslúžiť ako pomôcka pre experimentálne cvičenie z koloidnej chémie. Koloidná chémia je významnou súčasťou teoretického základu chemických vied, patrí medzi novšie interdisciplinárne odbory prírodných vied. Spája poznatky z oblasti fyzikálnej chémie, fyziky a biológie, pričom využíva aj solídne znalosti z matematiky a ďalších vedných odborov. Pri pochopení problémov koloidnej chémie sú často nevyhnutné aj experimenty, ktoré modelujú predstavy o priebehu javov a zákonitostí, ktorými sa tento vedný odbor zaoberá. Preto je pre zvládnutie učebnej látky z koloidnej chémie také dôležité a podstatné aktívne absolvovanie experimentálneho cvičenia. Pri výbere úloh pre tieto skriptá bolo treba rešpektovať aj značné obmedzenia dané možnosťami laboratórne prístrojového a materiálového vybavenia nášho pracoviska. Napriek tomuto obmedzeniu však môžu študentom ilustrovať základné teoretické fyzikálno-chemické princípy koloidne disperzných sústav, a čo je dôležité – ich pochopenie môže prispieť k porozumeniu niektorých dôležitejších zvláštností koloidných javov.

ANATOMICKÉ TERMÍNY PRE JEDNOODBOROVÉ A...

Juraj ŠevcFilip Mochnacký

Students studying biology as the single-subject or as a part of two-subject programs on various faculties of sciences are often encountered with the problem, how to limit the topics in the subject Human anatomy. This List of anatomical terms is aiming to help the non-medical students to get acquainted with the extensive anatomical nomenclature and to optimize the number of anatomical terms, which should be memorized, to preserve the sufficient capacity of the students for another knowledge of the field of systemic, comparative, developmental and functional anatomy. The emphasis on the arrangement of individual anatomical terms into the logical units supports the hierarchical view on the architecture of the human body.

Despite the common opinion, anatomical nomenclature represents a framework, which is during the further study gradually enveloped with the knowledge of more or less related disciplines concerning with the human body and its biological processes. Moreover, besides this ambition, which exceeds the area of the human anatomy, this List of anatomical terms continues the long tradition with respect to the valid Latin and Slovak anatomical terminology.

Študentská vedecká konferencia PF UPJŠ 2015

E-book

E-book

Vladimír Zeleňák(ed.)

Zborník obsahuje abstrakty príspevky účastníkov Študentskej vedeckej konferencie PF UPJŠ v Košiciach, ktorá sa konala 22. apríla 2015.

Milí študenti, kolegyne a kolegovia! Už po tretí krát vychádza zborník zo Študentskej vedeckej konferencie (ŠVK) na Prírodovedeckej fakulte Univerzity Pavla Jozefa Šafárika v Košiciach, ktorý práve čítate. ŠVK sa teší dlhodobej obľube medzi študentmi a učiteľmi fakulty a teší nás, že ináč to nebolo ani v tomto roku, keď bolo do ŠVK prihlásených 128 príspevkov. Príspevky boli zaradené do 19 sekcií, ktoré navyše dopĺňala otvorená súťaž v programovaní a finále súťaže IHRA. Vystúpenie na ŠVK je pre mnohých študentov aj jednou z prvých príležitostí na získanie skúseností s prezentáciou svojich výsledkov pred odborným publikom. Ak si uvedomíme počet prihlásených príspevkov, pripočítame k nim členov odborných porôt z radov učiteľov fakulty ako aj divákov, ktorí sa prišli podporiť svojich spolužiakov na vystúpeniach, je ŠVK podujatím, keď sa v jednom čase a na jednom mieste stretáva veľká časť študentskej a akademickej obce fakulty. Mnohé abstrakty príspevkov prezentované v tomto zborníku vznikli v rámci práce študentov na čiastkových úlohách, ktoré sú súčasťou výskumných zámerov na ústavoch PF UPJŠ. Abstrakty príspevkov predstavujú svojim spôsobom prehľad výskumných tém na jednotlivých pracoviskách PF UPJŠ. Zborník z ŠVK je tak dobrým nástrojom, ktorý môžu použiť študenti a učitelia fakulty na jej prezentáciu smerom navonok, k partnerom, zamestnávateľom, potenciálnym spolupracovníkom. O spoluprácu pri organizovaní ŠVK už dlhšie prejavujú záujem aj partneri z praxe. Od roku 2005 udeľuje zoskupenie IT spoločností Cenu za najoriginálnejšiu prácu a Cenu za prácu s najlepšími vyhliadkami na praktické využitie. V roku 2015 bola po prvýkrát otvorená sekcia, s názvom „Predstav svoj nápad!“, založená na myšlienke start-up projektov. Do sekcie boli prihlásené tri príspevky, kde študenti predstavili svoje nápady s potenciálnym využitím v praxi. Ich zámery boli hodnotené úspešnými manažérmi zo spoločností GlobalLogic, Košice IT Valley a AmCham, EXIsport, Investeers, KPMG. Vystúpenie študentov pred porotou, jej komentáre a návrhy boli veľkou devízou a skúsenosťou, ktorú naši potenciálni „start-up-isti“ získali. Vyhlásenie výsledkov ŠVK prebieha od roku 2013 v areáli na Šrobárovej ulici a je sprevádzané s ďalšími akciami ScienceFestu ako sú ŠTRK a Karaoke show. Ukazuje sa, že tento formát vyhlásenia výsledkov si nachádza medzi študentmi a učiteľmi čoraz väčšiu obľubu. Na vyhlásení výsledkov boli ocenené príspevky, ktoré odborné poroty vyhodnotili ako v jednotlivých sekciách ako najlepšie. Samozrejme, nie všetci účastníci ŠVK sa mohli dostať medzi laureátov. Avšak všetci účastníci ŠVK sa môžu považovať v istom zmysle za víťazov, lebo urobili niečo pre rozvoj svojej osobnosti, investovali do svojho vzdelania a prispeli k zveľaďovaniu a rozširovaniu poznania v oblasti prírodných vied, matematiky a informatiky.

Praktické cvičenia z biochémie

E-book

E-book

Erik Sedlák - Rastislav Varhač -  Patrik Danko - Helena Paulíková - Dušan Podhradský

The presented scripts were created in an effort to update and especially clarify the tasks that are solved in the basic practical exercises in biochemistry students of the 2nd and 3rd year of the bachelor's degree in chemistry, biology and their combinations with other disciplines. Most of the tasks come from the original scripts "Podhradský, Mihalovová: Praktické cvičenia z biochémie, Košice 1989".

Some of them have been modified to a greater or lesser extent and adapted to current conditions in the laboratory. New tasks were also added, such as those dedicated to nucleic acids. The scripts are thematically divided into six separate units, each of which consists of several tasks. The names of the units correspond to the nature of the biomacromolecules, which form their central theme. Theoretical introductions at the beginning of the unit are newly constructed and their main goal is to provide a brief overview of the basic biochemical methods used in the study of biomacromolecules.

These scripts are intentionally only available in electronic form. The reason is the effort to continuously update and modernize individual tasks according to the changing possibilities of our laboratory. We hope that the scripts will fulfill their role and that students will have sufficient theoretical knowledge and practical skills in the field of basic biochemical methods after completing these laboratory exercises.
