Fyodor Vasilyevich Bunkin

Fyodor Wassiljewitsch Bunkin ( Russian Фёдор Васильевич Бункин ; born January 17, 1929 in the village of Aksinjino (now Moscow ); † May 6, 2016 ) was a Russian physicist .

Life

Bunkin was the son of the geodesist Vasily Fjodorowitsch Bunkin (1894-1943) and the accountant Antonina Sergejewna nee Zelikowa (1893-1947). In 1936 the family moved to Moscow. In 1944, Bunkin entered the Moscow Motorway Technology Center. In 1946 he received the school-leaving certificate and began studying at the Thermal Engineering - Faculty of the Moscow Energetic Institute . In 1947 he moved to the Lomonosov Moscow State University (MGU) in the newly established physical - technical faculty, 1951, the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology was (MFTI). Oleg Konstantinowitsch Surski was a fellow student. 1952 closed Bunkin studies as radio physicists from.

After graduation, Bunkin worked in the vibration laboratory of the Lebedev Institute of Physics of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR (AN-SSSR, since 1991 Russian Academy of Sciences (RAN)). The topics of his first scientific work were the measurement of the temperature of the solar corona and the theory of thermal radiation from anisotropic media. His work on statistical radiophysics led to a general theory of fluctuations in nonlinear non - equilibrium systems . In 1955 he defended his candidate dissertation after completing his apprenticeship with Sergei Michailowitsch Rytow . In 1963 Bunkin received his doctorate in physical and mathematical sciences . Together with Alexander Michailowitsch Prokhorov he worked on problems in laser physics . The main focus of work was the ionization of atoms and molecules by strong laser radiation, the external photo effect in metals and the interaction of short laser pulses with matter . While investigating the possibilities of applying laser physics to acoustics , he discovered the excitation of sound by a laser, the phase conjugation of ultrasonic pulses and the thermal autofocusing of ultrasonic radiation in viscous liquids. The results found applications in biomedicine . In 1976 he was elected a corresponding member of the AN-SSSR.

After the Institute for General Physics (IOF) of the AN-SSSR was founded in 1982 on the basis of Department A of the Lebedev Institute in Moscow with Alexander Mikhailovich Prokhorov as director, Bunkin became vice director of the IOF. In 1992 he became a full member of RAN. In 1998 he founded the Science Center for Wave Research of the IOF and headed it until his death. Bunkin has authored or co-authored a variety of publications.

Bunkin was married to the biologist Lyudmila Sergejewna Bunkina, with whom he had two sons. Bunkin's older brother was the missile designer Boris Vasilyevich Bunkin .

Bunkin was buried in the Trojekurovo cemetery in Moscow .
