Alcohol as a Catalyst for Criminal Behavior: Analysis of Its Connection to Violent Crimes in Ukraine

The study of alcohol’s impact on the level and structure of crime in Ukraine is highly relevant, particularly in the context of increased social tension and psychological trauma caused by martial law. The problem of alcohol abuse and its correlation with violent crimes becomes especially acute during armed conflict, necessitating a comprehensive analysis and the development of effective countermeasures.

DETECTION OF FALSIFICATION OF HORILKA BY ADMITTANCE SPECTROSCOPY

The methods of quality control of horilka by electrical parameters, in particular, dielectric constant, specific conductivity, and imitation components are analyzed. The research results of individual samples of alcohol solutions and horilkas of different brands by the method of admittance spectroscopy were also analyzed. Based on this, methods for detecting falsification of horilka products by the method of admittance spectroscopy are proposed. The reactive component of the control object's ad is selected as an informative parameter. Two types of falsification are analyzed.
