Igor Mikhailovich Ternov

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Igor Michailowitsch Ternow ( Russian И́горь Миха́йлович Терно́в ; born November 11, 1921 , † April 12, 1996 in Moscow ) was a Soviet theoretical physicist.

Life

Ternow studied physics at the Lomonosov University with the degree in 1951. He was a student of Arseni Alexandrowitsch Sokolow and in 1962 became a professor at the Lomonosov University. He was there vice-rector (1969 and 1973 to 1978), head of the department of quantum theory and theoretical physics and he was party secretary of the Communist Party in the physics faculty.

He dealt in particular with the theory of synchrotron radiation, for example in accelerators and various quantum mechanical effects of charged particles in external fields, for example the self-polarization of electrons in strong magnetic fields via synchrotron radiation (Sokolov-Ternov effect) and quantum effects in the electron orbits in synchrotron Accelerators. He worked closely with Sokolow.

In 1976 he received the State Prize of the USSR with Sokolov.
