Lev Davidovich Landau Click here for full size picture (b. Jan. 22, 1908, Baku, Azerbaijan, Russian Empired. April 1, 1968, Moscow), Soviet physicist who worked in such fields as low-temperature physics, atomic and nuclear physics, and solid-state, stellar-energy, and plasma physics. Several physics terms bear his name. He was awarded the 1962 Nobel Prize for Physics. Landau had science-oriented parents. His father was an engineer who worked in the Baku oil industry and his mother a doctor who had at one time done physiological research. Landau was graduated at 13 from the Gymnasium and, because he was too young to go to the university, attended the Baku Economical Technical School. He matriculated in 1922 at Baku University, studying physics and chemistry, and transferred in 1924 to the Leningrad State University, which at that time was the centre of Soviet physics. Graduating in 1927, he continued research at the Leningrad Physico-Technical Institute. Niels Bohr In 1932 Landau went to Kharkov to become the head of the Theoretical Division of the Ukrainian Physico-Technical Institute, a position he combined in 1935 with that of head of the Department of General Physics at the Kharkov A.M. Gorky State University. In Kharkov Landau began to build a Soviet school of theoretical physics, so that Kharkov soon became the centre of theoretical physics in the U.S.S.R. It was also in Kharkov that, with his friend and former student, E.M. Lifshits, he started to write the well-known Course of Theoretical Physics, a set of nine volumes that together span the whole of the subject. His great interest in the teaching of physics is also shown in his plans for a "Course of General Physics" and even a series "Physics for Everybody."

Lev Davidovic Landau was born in Baku on January 22, 1908, as the son of an engineer and a physician. After graduating from the Physical Department of Leningrad University at the age of 19, he began his scientific career at the Leningrad Physico-Technical Institute. The years 1929 - 1931 he spent abroad, partly as a Rockefeller Foundation Fellow, working in Germany, Switzerland, England and, especially, in Copenhagen under Niels Bohr During 1932 - 1937 he was head of the Theoretical Department of the Ukrainian Physico-Technical Institute at Kharkov, and since 1937 he has been the head of the Theoretical Department of the Institute for Physical Problems of the Academy of Sciences of the U.S.S.R. in Moscow. Simultaneously he taught constantly as a professor of theoretical physics in the Kharkov and Moscow State Universities Landau's work covers all branches of theoretical physics, ranging from fluid mechanics to quantum field theory. A large portion of his papers refers to the theory of the condensed state. They started in 1936 with a formulation of a general thermodynamical theory of the phase transitions of the second order. After P.L. Kapitsa's discovery, in 1938, of the superfluidity of liquid helium, Landau began extensive research which led him to the construction of the complete theory of the "quantum liquids" at very low temperatures. His papers of 1941 - 1947 are devoted to the theory of the quantum liquids of the "Bose type", to which the superfluid liquid helium (the usual isotope

At that time there were practically no outstanding senior theoretical physicists in the Soviet Union, and, since the younger men had to teach themselves and each other, it was important for them to go abroad and be in touch with the Western theoretical physics

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

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.
