It is about time to reflect on the year and recall the most memorable events in Russian and world physics
The atomic clock that the modern satellite navigation can hardly manage without has a lot of non-obvious applications: from a search for dark matter and a drift of fundamental constants to Earth’s gravitational potential mapping. Head of the Complex Quantum Systems Optics Laboratory of P.N. Lebedev Physical Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences Ksenia Khabarova has told the Scientific Russia portal about the purpose of the atomic clock and its working principle
Observations and calculations show that the Milky Way will collide with its nearest neighbor, the Andromeda Galaxy, in about four billion years. What happens to galaxies during a merger? What effect will the future merger have on the Solar System?
The scientist discusses the mathematical view on the structure of our reality, the weirdness of the quantum world, and other themes in his interview with Scientific Russia
Scientists of the Joint Institute for High Temperatures (JIHT) of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS) have conducted a unique experiment that allows studying the emergence of quantum effects in our macrocosm in detail
What do we know about antimatter today? We asked this question to Alexander Dolgov, Dr. Sc. (Phys.-Math.), Professor, Director of the Novosibirsk State University Interdisciplinary Center of Elementary Particle Physics and Astrophysics
Academician Valery Anatolyevich Rubakov, Chief Researcher at the Institute for Nuclear Research (INR) of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS) and Head of the Neutrino and Particle Astrophysics project, describes the most sensational project results in his interview with Scientific Russia
The amount of vapor in the atmosphere has increased by 4% since the mid-1990s. How significant is the impact of water vapor on climate change?
How do physical factors, processes in the seas affect aquatic ecosystems? Why study the changes in phytoplankton blooms in different seas? How are these processes related to climate change?
