Branch of Science Physicists Nationality Russian ... Physics Prize Landau, Lev (1908-1968) Russian physicist who pioneered the mathematical treatment of magnetic domains. He also pioneered the quantum mechanical study of condensed states, especially helium II. He predicted the remarkable superfluid properties for He-3, the experimental verification of which led to his being awarded the 1962 Nobel Prize in physics. Landau also collaborated with Lifschitz on a classic series of physics textbooks. These books are some of the most concise and comprehensive ever written, and are unfortunately only sold at a very steep price by Pergamon Press. Landau was seriously injured in an automobile accident in 1962 from which he never fully recovered. References Berestetskii, V. B.; Lifschitz, E. M.; and Ditaevskii, L. P.

Landau, Lev Davidovich Soviet physicist, who was awarded the 1962 Nobel Prize for Physics for his work on low-temperature physics. Born into a Jewish family in Baku (his father was an engineer, his mother a physician), Landau was educated at Baku University and the University of Leningrad, where he graduated in 1927. A mathematical prodigy, he travelled throughout Europe visiting most of the leading research centres before being appointed head of the theoretical physics department at the Physical-Technical Institute in 1932. In 1937, at the suggestion of Peter Kapitza , Landau was invited to join his Institute for Physical Problems in Moscow; in 1943 he became professor of physics at Moscow University. At the institute Landau was asked by Kapitza to investigate the recently discovered phenomenon of superfluidity. In the early 1940s Landau worked out the mathematical theory of superfluidity, introducing a number of new concepts into the work. Involved in a serious car accident in 1962, Landau was unable to attend the Nobel ceremony, and although he lived another six years was unable to do any creative work. In addition to his theoretical work, Landau is well known in the West for his much-translated multi-volume encyclopedic

Lev Davidovich Landau No dia 7 de janeiro de 1962, chegou ao hospital de Moscou uma vítima de um desastre automobilístico. Ela perdera bastante sangue, sofrera onze fraturas e dezessete lesões graves no coração, pulmões, cérebro, rins e sistema nervoso central. Parecia haver pouca esperança, mas os melhores médicos da União Soviética se empenharam em salvar o que lhe restava de vida. Durante vários dias, Lev Landau, na época um dos maiores físicos teóricos do mundo, permaneceu em estado de coma, e remia-se que não tivesse possibilidade de recobrar suas faculdades mentais. A notícia logo se espalhou, e a consternação invadiu os círculos científicos de todo o mundo; cartas e telegramas chegavam a Moscou às centenas, pedindo informações e manifestando desejos de restabelecimento do acidentado. Além de o estado geral ser muito ruim, seu organismo não respondia ao tratamento dos antibióticos aplicados que ele estava habituado a tomar. Assim, foi preciso buscar medicamentos no exterior: um avião britânico especialmente fretado transportou a Copenhague um novo tipo de antibiótico, que podia combater a infecção que se alastrava; de lá, o remédio foi levado a Moscou. Mas outros problemas dificultavam o restabelecimento do paciente: o número de fraturas era muito grande, e qualquer tentativa de colocar os ossos na posição correta poderia piorar as coisas. Os médicos, então, deixaram que os ossos se soldassem nas posições em que estavam, com o intuito de, mais tarde, corrigir a situação.

Lev Landau, Nobel Laureate in Physics Landau did pioneering work in many-body theory as well as relativistic quantum field theory. His analysis of Feynman diagrams led to the theory of surfaces in spaces several complex variables, and are known as Landau curves.

Virtual Journals Articles Family Lines Sketched in the Portrait of Lev Landau Arguably the greatest Soviet theoretical physicist of the 20th century, Landau is intimately seen through the eyes of his loving niece in these excerpts from her memoir. Ella Ryndina Translated from Russian by Arthur Gill In this brief memoir, I shall try to describe academician Lev Davidovich Landau; his parents, Lyubov Veniaminovna Harkavi-Landau and David Lvovich Landau (my grandparents); his sister Sofia Davidovna Landau (my mother); and my association with him and our encounters in various periods of our lives. My earliest memories of Dau (as Landau was known to those close to him) date back to 1937, when I was four years old. Into the quiet and calm of our home burst, unexpectedly, a strange kind of person. He brought an atmosphere of bustle, festivity, noisy and lengthy arguments, excitement, and shouting. Mom said that this was my Uncle Lyova [his familiar name], her brother, and that he had just arrived in Leningrad. He was very tall (especially from my four-year-old's perspective), very thin, very disheveled, and very lively. He couldn't stay in one spot for a second; he kept measuring our modest-sized room with his long legs, running back and forth. Not knowing what to talk to me about, he bent down, stuck his cold fingers in the scruff of my neck, cheerfully called me "chick," and continued running around the room.

Russian ... the greatest triumph of the power of the human genius is that man is capable of apprehending things beyond the pale of his imagination. L.D.Landau From article "Lev Davidovich Landau (1908-1968)" by E.M.Lifshitz In the spring of 1937 Landau moved to Moscow where he became head of the Theoretical Division of the Institute of Physical Problems which had not long before been established under the direction of P.L.Kapitza. There he remained to the end of his life; in this Institute, which became a home to him, his varied activity reached its full flowering. It was there, in a remarkable interaction with experimental research, that Landau created what may be the outstanding accomplishment of his scientific life-the theory of quantum fluids.
