Mikhail Grigoryevich Itkis
Mikhail Grigorjewitsch Itkis ( Russian Михаил Григорьевич Иткис ; born December 7, 1942 in the village of Karatalskoje near Qarabulaq ) is a Russian nuclear physicist .
Life
Itkis studied at the Lomonosov University in Moscow with a degree in 1966. He then worked at the Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Kazakh Academy of Sciences. In 1974 he successfully defended his candidate dissertation and in 1985 his doctoral dissertation . In 1988 he was appointed professor.
Itkis has been working at the United Institute for Nuclear Research (OIJaI) in Dubna near Moscow since 1993 . In 1997 he became director of the GN Fljorow Laboratory for Nuclear Reactions of the OIJaI and in 2006 he became the institute's deputy director. He has represented the director since 2010.
Itkis initiated and headed the OIJaI program to research the mechanisms of the formation of super-heavy elements . In a series of papers he investigated the decay products of nuclear fission caused by charged elementary particles and heavy ions . The results allowed a better understanding of asymmetric nuclear fission and the mechanism of the distribution of masses and energies in the fission of cold and hot nuclei. His work was widely recognized and stimulated experimental and theoretical research by other groups of scientists. With his participation, a unique particle accelerator was built as well as nuclear physics precision measuring systems for the investigation of rare processes of the formation and decay of heavy nuclei. His work has been cited more than 3500 times , and his h-index is h = 28.
Honors
- Medal of the Order for Services to the Fatherland
- State Prize of the Russian Federation (2010) for the development of a new stability area of super-heavy elements (together with JZ Oganessian )
