2011 marked the hundredth anniversary both of the famous Solvay conferences, and of the Geiger-Marsden experiment that launched the modern understanding of subatomic structure. I was asked to survey the status and prospects of particle…
Since their "discovery" by Pauli in 1930, neutrinos have plaed a key part in confirmation of the structure of the standard model of strong and electroweak interactions. After reviewing ways in which this has been manifested in the past, we…
This talk is dedicated to Alberto Sirlin in celebration of his seventieth birthday. I wish to convey my deep appreciation of his many important contributions to particle physics over 40 years and look forward to many more years of…
History of Neutrino Physics is revied with special emphasis on anecdotal events often neglected.
This is a short overview of the influence of mathematicians and their ideas on the creative contribution of Mikhailo Lomonosov on the occasion of the tercentenary of his birth.
We celebrate the legacies of our friend and mentor Professor Lianshou Liu who was one of the pioneers for the phenomenology of multi-particle interactions and initiated the physics of relativistic heavy-ion collisions in China. In this…
The talks presented at the conference are summarized from an angle of a particle theorist. After presenting a personal impression on the conference, particular emphasis is placed on the spin structure of nucleons and symmetry breaking test.
In the last decades, a very important breakthrough has been brought in the elementary particle physics by the discovery of the phenomenon of the neutrino oscillations, which has shown neutrino properties beyond the Standard Model. But a…
In 2007 Mark I. Gorenstein celebrated his 60th birthday. This report is dedicated to Mark and it sketches the results obtained during the past ten years of our collaboration and friendship. They concern search for and study of the onset of…
The UNEDF SciDAC collaboration of nuclear theorists, applied mathematicians, and computer scientists is developing a comprehensive description of nuclei and their reactions that delivers maximum predictive power with quantified…
I present some reminiscences, both personal and scientific, over a lifetime of admiration of, and friendship with, one of the Grandmasters of our subject.
A.V. Usova (1921-2014) has always been one of the leading figures in Russian physics education. Her theory of physics concept formation was formulated during the 1970s and the 1980s and directly influenced the process of physics education…
This reply to Dr. Smolyakov's comment [2] on our PRL paper [1] was solicited by PRL on Nov. 17, 2021 and submitted to PRL on Nov. 30, 2021. Regretfully, the editors of PRL decided not to publish Dr. Smolyakov's comment; hence, not our reply…
Classical H.Minkowski theorems on existence and uniqueness of convex polyhedra with prescribed directions and areas of faces as well as the well-known generalization of H.Minkowski uniqueness theorem due to A.D.Alexandrov are extended to a…
This Liber Amicorum is a collection of essays ranging from personal memories to technical contributions. It is a tribute to Dave Schmidt and his career, and was composed at the occasion of his sixtieth birthday.
Editorial of the International Conference on Critical Phenomena and Diffusion in Complex Systems held on 5--7 December, 2006 in Nizhniy Novgorod State University, Russia and was dedicated to the memory and 80th anniversary of Professor…
James Chadwick is known for his discovery of the neutron. Many of his earlier findings and ideas in the context of weak and strong nuclear forces are much less known. This biographical sketch attempts to highlight the achievements of a…
This paper reconstructs the half-century evolution of the scientific school founded by Yuriy P. Kunchenko (1939--2006) as the development of a semiparametric methodology for non-Gaussian estimation. Starting with Kunchenko's 1972/1973…
The planned in-ice radio array of IceCube-Gen2 at the South Pole will provide unprecedented sensitivity to ultra-high-energy (UHE) neutrinos in the EeV range. The ability of the detector to measure the neutrino's energy and direction is of…
These lectures aim at providing a pedagogical overview of neutrino physics. We will mostly deal with standard neutrinos, the ones that are part of the Standard Model of particle physics, and with their standard dynamics, which is enough to…
