Yuri Mikhailovich Saizew
Juri Michailowitsch Saizew ( Russian Юрий Михайлович Зайцев , English transcription Yuri Zaitsev or Yuriy Zaitsev ; born December 5, 1936 ) is a Soviet / Russian experimental particle physicist.
Saizew graduated from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT) in 1960 and received his doctorate in 1968. In the 1960s he took part in various experiments at JINR and ITEP on pion-pion interaction with small transverse momentum transfer. In the 1970s he was involved in experiments on the scattering of high-energy particles (such as protons) on nuclei at ITEP and in 1978 at Fermilab . From 1979 he was part of the Argus collaboration at DESY (group leader, muon detector). There one found an unusually high mixing angle in the B-meson-anti-B-meson system and thus evidence of the high top quark mass (confirmed when the top quark was discovered in 1995). With Henning Schröder , he received the Panofsky Prize in 1997 . The investigations also provided the basis for the later investigation of CP violation at B meson factories.
Later he was involved in the Hera-B collaboration. He is at the Institute for Theoretical and Experimental Physics (ITEP) in Moscow. In the 1990s he was a professor at MIPT (1997/98 as head of the department of high energy physics).
He was the 1966 handball champion of the USSR.
