Heroic Figres in «The Horse and His Boy» by C.S. Lewis
В статье проводится анализ фантастической повести К.С. Льюиса «Конь и его мальчик», которая входит в состав семикнижия «Хроники Нарнии» и которая построена по законам героического мифа. Структура льюисовской повести повторяет структуру героического мифа: рождение младенца, призванного выполнить великую миссию, пророчества о его будущих славных деяниях, изгнание его из отчего дома в некий враждебный мир, пребывание в безвестности, славные путешествия, опасные приключения и триумф. В связи с этим автором статьи подробно рассматриваются мифологические параллели, проявляющиеся на уровне персонажей. Предметом исследования становятся два центральных «героических» образа повести - образ мальчика Шасты и девочки Аравиты, на долю которых выпадают приключения, сопоставимые с инициационными испытаниями, составляющими неотъемлемую часть пути мифического героя. В статье показана динамика развития образов этих двух персонажей, выделены главные характерные черты, роднящие Шасту и Аравиту с героями древности.The article deals with C.S. Lewis’ fantasy fiction «The Chronicles of Narnia». The autor focuses on the chronicle «The Horse and His Boy», built according to the pattern of The He-ro’s Journey, the origins of which lay in myth. The structre of C.S. Lewis’ book establishes the characteristic elements of myth of the Hero: the birth of some infant, endowed with extraordinary value and destined to carry out some great mission, pro-phecies about his glorious exploits, the abandonment and exposure of the child hero at the time of birth in a hostile universe once, obscurity, his glorious joyrney, dangerous adventures and finally a triamph. In connection with that, in the articlae are analysed the most important characteristic features, common for Lewis’ personages and anciernt heros, described in myths. The author of the article claims that both Shsta and Aravis are heroic figures, who go out and achieve great deeds, showing how their adventure repeats an archetypal adventure of the Hero and analysing the process of the moral and spiritual growth of the mentioned personages
Advances in ITER-relevant Nb-Ti and NbSn strands and low-loss Nb-Ti strands in RF
The review of the main results of R&D directed on the enhancement of ITER relevant NbTi and NbSn strands performance recently carried out in Russia (the Bochvar Institute) are presented. For ITER PF type (NbTi) strands with Cu/non Cu ratio of 1.6 the attainment of ITER specified critical current density (Jc) ≥ 2900 A/mm2 (5 T, 4.2 K) has been shown. For Toroidal Field (TF) strands (NbSn) the influence of doping and layout peculiarities of the wires produced by bronze method on their current-carrying ability has been investigated. It was shown that with non-doped matrix and doped filaments Jc exceeds 800 A/mm2 (12 T, 4.2 K) while with the application of the doped bronze and nondoped filaments it exceeds 900 A/mm2. Internal-tin NbSn strand meeting the ITER TF specification requirements was also developed and fabricated. The results of testing of CICC samples in a SULTAN facility have shown that performance parameters are higher than ITER qualification requirements Low loss model fine filament NbTi strands, intended for operating in fields with a ramp rate from 1 up to 4 T/s, has been developed and manufactured. The use of commercial MN-5 alloy (Cu-5wt.%Ni) and the Cu- 0.5wt.%Mn alloy for matrix of strands are discussed. The critical current density higher than 2700 A/mm2 (5 T, 4.2 K was shown to be attainable

Status and initial physics performance studies of the MPD experiment at NICA
The Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA) is under construction at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR), with commissioning of the facility expected in late 2022. The Multi-Purpose Detector (MPD) has been designed to operate at NICA and its components are currently in production. The detector is expected to be ready for data taking with the first beams from NICA. This document provides an overview of the landscape of the investigation of the QCD phase diagram in the region of maximum baryonic density, where NICA and MPD will be able to provide significant and unique input. It also provides a detailed description of the MPD set-up, including its various subsystems as well as its support and computing infrastructures. Selected performance studies for particular physics measurements at MPD are presented and discussed in the context of existing data and theoretical expectations
