This study investigates a text excerpt containing 20,000 Russian letters of the alphabet, excluding $\Cprime$ and $\Cdprime$, from Pushkin's novel Eugene Onegin–the entire first chapter and sixteen stanzas of the second.

increases tetragonal unit-cell volume and oxygen nonstoichiometry and decreases partial p- and n-type
electronic conductivities studied in the oxygen partial pressure range from 1 × 10-20 to 0.7 atm at 973−1223 K. The solubility of Sc3+ corresponds to approximately x ≈ 0.35. The relatively low, temperature-activated hole mobility indicates a small-polaron mechanism of the electronic transport, as for undoped

δ. The atomistic computer simulations showed that major contribution to the ionic conductivity
is provided by the oxygen sites surrounded by iron cations in the perovskite-type layers of Sr3(Fe,Sc)2O7-

structure, whereas stable ScO6 octahedra are essentially excluded from the oxygen diffusion processes.
Minimum migration energy, 0.9−1.4 eV, was found for nonlinear pathways formed by the apical O1
sites linking iron−oxygen polyhedra along the c-axis and equatorial O3 positions in the perovskite-type
planes. The direct O3 → O3 jumps are characterized with higher energetic barrier, 1.5−2.2 eV. Because
of the increasing concentration of vacant O3 sites induced by scandium doping, the apparent activation
energy for oxygen−ionic transport decreases from about 2 eV, as observed for undoped strontium ferrite
at 1123−1223 K, down to 0.95−1.15 eV for Sr3Fe2
