35. TECHNICAL AND FORENSIC RESEARCH OF DOCUMENTS

The word “document” comes from the Latin documentum, which in legal practice means “evidence.”

A document is any business paper that serves as evidence of something and has details (stamps, signatures, etc.). The documents reflect various facts and events that are important for resolving a case. The authenticity and truth of documents are protected by law; there is criminal liability for forgery of various types of documents.

Technical and forensic examination of documents solves many issues, which requires the possession of a variety of knowledge and research methods.

Most of the documents that should be examined using technical-forensic examination are fake documents.

Forgery of documents is recognized:

1) complete, in which the document is prepared completely (form and all its details);

2) partial, in which some amendments are made to the document (deleting part of the text or, conversely, adding some new elements to the document). Technical and forensic examination of documents consists of examining the document itself for its authenticity, methods of production, identifying signs of alteration and the possibility of restoring the document.

Documents can be:

1) genuine;

2) fake. Forgery of a document is carried out by printing using rubber fonts, copying, using photocopying, including the use of printing tools;

3) forged, containing false information, but made properly.

Each of the listed types of counterfeit has its own characteristics that make it possible to establish their presence.

The letters of the rubber font are used relatively rarely and are distinguished by thick, blurry strokes, the distance between letters, words and lines is uneven.

Common methods of counterfeiting seals and stamps are: copying an impression from a genuine document using flat clichés; wet copying, etc. When counterfeiting, some methods have the following characteristics: non-standard font, violation of spacing, distortion in the design of the coat of arms, etc.

"Wet" copying involves making an intermediate cliché from an original seal or signature. A fake seal impression is usually paler than the real one, with unclear stroke boundaries.

Signatures are forged using carbon paper, translucent redrawing.

Partial forgery by making changes to the content of original documents is usually carried out through erasure, etching or addition.

Erasure - this is a mechanical effect on paper, causing disruption of its surface layer, ruffled fibers, thinning of the paper with application to it using various recording media.

Etching is the destruction of records by chemical destruction or discoloration of the coloring matter of the original record. Etching is manifested by the appearance of spots of a different color and shade than the rest of the paper, remnants of the original text, thinning of the paper, etc.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

Portable speaker Sony Extra Bass SRS-XB33 16.05.2020

Sony has introduced a portable speaker Extra Bass SRS-XB33. It may also be of interest to those who spend time outdoors and place high demands on the endurance of electronic devices. The shock-resistant housing and IP67 rating make the Extra Bass SRS-XB33 a good choice for such cases.

From the younger model Extra Bass SRS-XB23, the Extra Bass SRS-XB33 speaker differs in shape, large size and weight. At the cost of increasing the size to 97 x 106 x 246 mm and weighing up to 1,1 kg, the designers were able to double the battery life, that is, the column works without recharging up to 24 hours.

The configuration and characteristics of the Extra Bass SRS-XB33 do not differ from the Extra Bass SRS-XB23. A pair of X-Balanced loudspeakers with non-circular cones and a pair of passive radiators are responsible for sound reproduction. The declared range of reproducible frequencies is 20-20 Hz. The Bluetooth 000 interface is used for connection. The list of supported profiles includes A5.0DP, AVRCP, HSP, HFP and SPP, while the list of codecs includes SBC, AAC and LDAC. For charging, use the USB-C port. Cable included.

The price of the new item is $150. Four color options are available.
