During the World War II, Schafranov attended the school and worked together with his father building roads. In 1943 he got his first national award at the age 14.〔 From 1946, Schafranov studied at the Physics Department of the Moscow State University. After graduating in 1951, he started to work with nuclear fusion in the Theory Department headed by Mikhail Aleksandrovich Leontovich at LIPAN (Laboratory of Measuring Instruments of the USSR Academy of Sciences) as today's Russian Research Centre "Kurchatov Institute" was known at the time. He examined tokamaks stability and gave some parameter estimation for Soviet tokamak experiments. He also dealt with shock waves in plasmas and interaction of electromagnetic waves with plasmas. Later, he worked intensively on stellarators. In 1981 he became the successor of Leontovich as head of the Theory Department of Nuclear Fusion at the Kurchatov Institute. Concepts such as the Shafranov shift (1959), the Kruskal-Shafranov stability criterion and limit value and the Grad-Shafranov equation (1957) are named after him. In 1972, he suggested with Lev Artsimovich a tokamak with D-shaped cross-section.〔Artsimovich, Shafaranov: (JETP Letters ), vol. 15, 1972, p. 72–76〕 In 2001 he received the Hannes Alfvén Prize. In 1981 he became a corresponding member of the Soviet Academy of Sciences and full member of the Academy in 1997. In 1971 he was awarded the State Prize of the USSR and the Lenin Prize in 1984. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Vitaly Dmitrievich Shafranov (in honor of his 80th birthday) )〕 Since 1983 he was editor of ''Plasma Physics Reports'' (''Fizika Plasmy''). From the death of Boris Kadomtsev to his death, he served as the editor of the ''Reviews of Plasma Physics'' collection. 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「Vitaly Shafranov」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
