Study of the Microphonics for Prospective Space-Based Neutron and Gamma-Ray Detectors and Methods for its Suppression

The results of testing a number of space-based detectors that contain PMTs or high-voltage electrodes for the noise from the microphonics that occurs in the signal path due to external mechanical action have been presented. A method for the vibration isolation of instruments aboard a spacecraft has been proposed to reduce their responsivity to vibrations.     

The IMISS-1 Experiment for Recording and Analysis of Accelerations in Orbital Flight

The IMISS-1 experiment represents the second step in solving the problem of the creation of the gaze stabilization corrector. This device is designed to correct the effect of the gaze stabilization delay under microgravity. IMISS-1 continues research started by the Tat’yana-2 satellite. This research will be continued on board the International Space Station. At this stage we study the possibility of registration of angular and linear accelerations acting on the sensitive mass in terms of Low Earth Orbit flight, using MEMS sensors.     

Study of Dynamic Loads of Aircraft Bevel Gear Systems

This paper studies the dynamic loads of bevel gears with circular and straight teeth with the overlap factors less than two (ε_α < 2) and more than two (ε_α > 2). The advantages of the gears with straight teeth with ε_α > 2 are shown.

System engineering design of a vortex aerodynamic angle and true airspeed sensor

Application prospects, a functional diagram and algorithms for processing informative signals from a vortex aerodynamic angle and true airspeed sensor are considered. The requirements for transducers of pressure pulsations downstream of vortex generators are formed, a technique and connection of these transducers to the sensor circuit diagram are described. A technique is presented to analyze individual and resultant errors of the aerodynamic angle and true airspeed channels.     

To Calculation of Regenerative Cooling of a Liquid Fuel Rocket Engine Chamber

This paper demonstrates that in transition from the one-dimensional longitudinal-channel motion of the coolant in the regenerative cooling system of the liquid propellant engine to the twodimensional (interchannel) channel motion (transpiration) through a porous mesh material (PMM), the hydraulic losses decrease. Experimental data on PMM hydraulic resistance coefficients and heat transfer in porous paths with the interchannel coolant transpiration (ICCT) is presented.     

Magnetic Field Amplification in Galaxy Clusters and Its Simulation

We review the present theoretical and numerical understanding of magnetic field amplification in cosmic large-scale structure, on length scales of galaxy clusters and beyond. Structure formation drives compression and turbulence, which amplify tiny magnetic seed fields to the microGauss values that are observed in the intracluster medium. This process is intimately connected to the properties of turbulence and the microphysics of the intra-cluster medium. Additional roles are played by merger induced shocks that sweep through the intra-cluster medium and motions induced by sloshing cool cores. The accurate simulation of magnetic field amplification in clusters still poses a serious challenge for simulations of cosmological structure formation. We review the current literature on cosmological simulations that include magnetic fields and outline theoretical as well as numerical challenges.
