The B. Verkin Institute for Low Temperature Physics and Engineering is a research institute that conducts basic research in experimental and theoretical physics, mathematics, as well as in the field of applied physics. It was founded in 1960 by Borys Verkin, Oleksandr Galkin, Borys. Eselson and Ihor Dmytrenko. The first director was Borys Verkin. Main areas of research are high-temperature superconductivity, weak superconductivity, magneto antiferromagnets, physics of low-dimensional systems, point-contact spectroscopy, quantum crystals, nonlinear phenomena in metals, physics of disordered systems, quantum phenomena in plasticity and others. The institute has published about 250 monographs, textbooks, reference books, more than 12,000 articles and reviews in ranking scientific journals, and has trained more than 850 highly qualified experts — PhDs.

Monument to the Liberator Soldier (Kharkiv)
Monument to the Liberator Soldier (Kharkiv)

The Monument to the Liberator Soldier (Ukrainian: Пам'ятник Воїну-визволителю, Russian: Памятник Воину-освободителю), commonly called "Pavlusha" (Ukrainian: Павлуша, Russian: Павлуша) is a large monument in Kharkiv to the Soviet troops who liberated the city from German occupation in 1943. The monument is located across from the August 23 metro station. It was dedicated in 1981. The sculptors were Y. I. Ryk and I. P. Yastryebov, and the architects were A. A. Maksimenko, E. A. Svyatchenko, and E. Y. Cherkasov. The centerpiece is a large statue of a Red Army soldier with a carbine raised high in his right hand. The statue is flanked by two artillery pieces and walls with replicas of the Order of Victory and the Order of the Patriotic War.By 2009, the monument was in need of repair and maintenance. Previously, this had been the responsibility of the Green Areas Trust, but this body was now defunct, and so the monument had not been maintained for a decade, and required attention including testing for structural integrity, cleaning, and refacing of the pedestal.The repair was paid for by extrabudgetary funds. Money was raised by local and regional party leaders. Repair and cleaning of the pedestal alone cost more than 60,000 hryvnia. The project was completed within six months, in time for Victory Day (May 9) of 2010. Further cleaning and restoration was done in 2012.Kharkivites call the monument "Pavlusha" (by way of analogy with the Bulgarian monument "Alyosha" in Plovdiv), or simply "The Soldier". It is a popular meeting place and background for photographs. In 2013, the National Bank of Ukraine issued a commemorative coin "Liberation of Kharkiv from the Fascist Invaders" as part of the series Victory in the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945, showing the statue on the obverse.
