Anatoly Ivanovich Larkin ((ロシア語:Анатолий Иванович Ларкин); October 14, 1932 – August 4, 2005) was a Russian theoretical physicist, universally recognised as a leader in theory of condensed matter, and who was also a celebrated teacher of several generations of theorists.〔 (Anatoly Larkin, world-renowned physicist, dies: News Releases: UMNnews: U of M )〕 Born in a small town of Kolomna in Moscow region, Larkin went on to receive his education at the Moscow Engineering Physics Institute. He worked on his PhD on the properties of plasmas under the supervision of A.B.Migdal and later received the degree of Doctor of Science (1965) for studies of superconductivity. Research at the I.V. Kurchatov Institute in Moscow (1957–66) was followed by nearly 40 years of work at the L.D.Landau Institute for Theoretical Physics in Chernogolovka, Moscow region, where he moved in 1966. During 1970–1991, he was also a Professor of Moscow State University. Since 1995, Larkin was a Professor of Physics at the University of Minnesota and a member of William I. Fine Theoretical Physics Institute.〔 (William I. Fine Institute Homepage )〕 The list of his publications (233 entries) consists of papers on condensed matter theory, theory of elementary particles, and nuclei and plasmas.〔 A.A. Vedenov, A.I. Larkin, Equation of state of plasma, Sov. Phys. JETP 9, 806-821 (1959)〕 Citation index of publications by A. Larkin exceeds 14,000. The dominant part of his work is devoted to superconductivity, magnetism, ferro-electricity, properties of metals, semiconductors and dielectrics. He pioneered the concept of spontaneous symmetry breaking in the physics of elementary particles,〔 V.G. Vaks, A.I. Larkin, On the application of the methods of superconductivity theory to the problem of the masses of elementary particles, Sov. Phys. JETP 13, 192-193 (1961) 〕 discovered collective pinning of magnetic flux in superconductors,〔 A.I. Larkin, Effect of inhomogeneities on the structure of the mixed state of superconductors, Sov. Phys. JETP 31(4), 784 (1970) 〕 predicted paraconductivity〔 L.G. Aslamazov, A.I. Larkin, Effect of Fluctuations on the Properties of a Superconductor Above the Critical Temperature, Sov. Phys. Solid State, 10(4), 875-880 (1968)〕 and effects of fluctuations on properties of superconductors,〔 A. Larkin, A. Varlamov, Theory of fluctuations in superconductors, Oxford University Press, 2005, xviii, 412 pp. ISBN 0-19-852815-9 (Series of Monographs on Physics 127 ) 〕 made essential contributions to the theory of weak localization,〔 S. Hikami, A.I. Larkin, Y. Nagaoka, Spin-Orbit Interaction and Magnetoresistance in the Two Dimensional Random System, Prog. Theor. Phys., 63(2), 707-710 (1980) 〕 as well as developed the concept of the Ehrenfest time〔 I.L. Aleiner, A.I. Larkin, Role of divergence of classical trajectories in quantum chaos, Phys. Rev. E 55 (2), R1243-R1246 (1997) 〕 and its effect on phenomena of quantum chaos. A.I. Larkin was the famous teacher of a large number of actively working theorists. His students and collaborators are teaching and conducting research in Russia, USA, Great Britain, France, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Israel and other countries. He died suddenly at 6pm on August 4, 2005 in Aspen, Colorado, where he was attending a physics workshop. ==Honors and Prizes== * (Bardeen Prize )(2004) * Lars Onsager Prize (2002) * Award of Excellence of the World Congress on Superconductivity(1994) * (Hewlett Packard Europhysics Prize )(1993)〔 * Alexander von Humboldt Medal (1993) * Member of Russian Academy of Sciences(1991). * London Prize in Low Temperature Physics(1990) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anatoly Larkin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
