DEVELOPMENT OF ANATOLY A. VLASOV’S IDEAS AT MRTTI (MRSU): ON THE 110TH BIRTHDAY OF ANATOLY ALEXANDROVICH VLASOV

Abstract

The year 2018 marks the 110th anniversary of the birth of Prof. A.A. Vlasov, an outstanding Soviet and Russian scientist in field of theoretical physics. He modified the Boltzmann equation to describe collective phenomena in plasma and made other discoveries in theoretical physics. We summarize the development of his ideas and traditions in modern science, especially by his followers at the Moscow Region Teachers Training Institute (MRTTI), currently MRSU. His ideas laid the foundation for the discovery of cumulative-dissipative charged structures in plasmas of various nature and for the investigation of the features of their interaction through electromagnetic fields and energy-mass-momentum flows of charged particles (electrons, protons, and various ions).
