| Bemærkning | Evgenii Mikhailovich Lifshitz (1915 - 1985) was a Ukrainian physicist. He studied at the physics and mechanics faculty of Kharkov Mechanics and Machine Building Institute. He graduated in 1933, having completed the examinations and had a diploma thesis accepted. In 1933 he began working as a graduate student at the Ukrainian Physicotechnical Institute having been accepted as one of Lev Landau's first Ph.D. students. He completed the course and took the Ph.D. examination in 1934.
From September 1939 he worked entirely at the Academy of Sciences Institute of Physical Problems in Moscow. Pyotr Kapitza (1894 - 1984) was a Russian physicist. Kapitza began his scientific career in A.F. Ioffe’s section of the Electromechanics Department of the Petrograd Polytechnical Institute, completing his studies in 1918. At the suggestion of A.F. Ioffe in 1921 Kapitza came to the Cavendish Laboratory to work with Rutherford.Kapitza was a Clerk Maxwell Student of Cambridge University (1923-1926), Assistant Director of Magnetic Research at Cavendish Laboratory (1924-1932), Messel Research Professor of the Royal Society (1930-1934), Director of the Royal Society Mond Laboratory (1930-1934). In 1934 he returned to Moscow where he organized the Institute for Physical Problems at which he continued his research on strong magnetic fields, low temperature physics and cryogenics. Kapitza was director of the Institute for Physical Problems. From 1957 he was a member of the Presidium of the USSR Academy of Sciences. He won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1978. The Institute for Physical Problems was established in 1934. It's key experimental and theoretical was work in the field of superconductivity (intermediate state, thermal conductivity) of the electron spectrum of metals (Fermi surface, surface levels in a magnetic field, the effect of interference of electrons in a metal), of superfluid helium (Kapitza jump, second sound, viscosity superfluid spin current in helium-3), quantum crystals (quantum diffusion, crystallization wave faceting phase transitions) magnetism (antiferromagnetic resonance, weak ferromagnetism, magneto-electric effect, light scattering by magnons, spin waves). The Institute is now named after Kapitza. |
