Hi, I have tried to find following paper which is a Russian paper (translated to English), please let me know where I can find it. L.P. Gor'kov, J. Expt. Theor. Phys. (U.S.S.R) 34, 735 (1958) Sov. Phys. JETP 7, 505 (1958) I have the same problem with other translated Russian publication...

Homework Statement My professor was explaining that he has a several thousand page, Russian book of integrals in his office for solving for practice. Has anyone ever heard of it, or even know the title of the book. I just want to be able to google search it and see how much it costs...

If I wanted to become a theoretical physicist, would it be useful to learn russian? It's a fairly easy language for me, as my native language is czech which is very similar. I somehow have a feeling that they have some good research centers or accelerators. It's not that it's my dream to work...

Where we should talk about great Russian Lit. EG I'm reading Crime and Punishment and Notes from Underground right now. Is Brothers Karamazov more similar in style to C&P or Underground?

Just thought I'd share this and must admit that I definitely would not have done the same: Mathematician Rejected $1 Million Prize "Because It Is Unfair"

I just read the following article, from 2007: I find that pretty worrying, but oddly enough, there is hardly any other information to be found on this subject. The only other articles I can find link back to this one, so I wonder, is this just sensationalist reporting or is there some truth...

Hey! Any1 knows anything about Russia's education system or some russians here could explain to me what the hell are they teaching you in school that you guys are simply dominating math/computer science competition, I'm just amazed at the results. My exact question would be: What is the learning...

Well we know what matryoshka dolls are? Those nested dolls one inside another. I am a mere laymen and amateur that's why I am using descriptive terms instead of math rigor. So what should the approach be: If RH nest Hilbert-Polya conjecture, then what things nest HP conjecture? And ad...

How will the USA react ? From watching CNN, I'm a bit confused - will the USA try to act as a mediator between Russia and Georgia, or will it stand firmly on Georgia's side ? What are your predictions ?

How are Russian Universities for theoretical physics in general? I ask because I might be interested in graduate school there.

hi i was wondering about the russian helicopter death ray and if it was based on the russian multi beam klystrons and all in one technology. does it use tesla multi beam technology? thanks

I know it isn't generally kosher to link other forums, but this is just too crazy to pass up. An astrophotographer in Perth happened to be out taking a wide-angle picture of just the right part of the sky when a Russian rocket booster exploded and fell to earth. The pic is a single 30 minute...

Rather sad if it's true. By DANIEL WOOLLS, Associated Press Writer Tue Aug 22, 6:20 PM ET MADRID, Spain - A reclusive Russian won the math world's highest honor Tuesday for solving a problem that has stumped some of the discipline's greatest minds for a century — but he refused the...

С днем рождения - Arctic Fox! Можете Вы иметь еще много лет!

I remember watching the BBC news seeing a sickle and a hammer in a Russian army march in front of Putin and George Bush. My question is: Is the russian Flag the red, blue and white stripes? OR is there something I'm not aware of?

Years ago on the now defunct show Beyond 2000 there was a prototype aircraft being built in Russia that had no wings as such. Its shell had rectangle holes in it that I guess let air get in and flow over tiny internal wings or something. Anyone know what I'm talking about? It was big but not as...

Whose military technology do you think better, Russia or United States?

Whose Aerospace technology is better, Russian or American?

I thought Russia was wrong re: Chechnya but nothing can justify this atrocity. Retaliation should be swift and relentless.

For once, I almost agree with Ben-Ariel. (Zero, I think I need my medication now...) Russia does have, in my mind, a number of problems right now. (1) The questionable activity regarding the forthcoming elections - one party crushed, another opponent imprisioned... (2) The lack of...

Does Russia need an IMPERIAL RESTORATION complete with Tsar to counter the imminent EUROPEAN IMPERIAL RESTORATION complete with wannabe divine EMPEROR? Watch for dormant European monarchs to be revived by a pope to support his elect for the highest office in Germany's Fourth Reich aka EU...

It has been said that a russian company has provided Iraq with a system that destroys GPS navagational status of onboard cruise missiles, rendering the missile to be co-ordinless? As the first of these missiles that have been 'un-guided', how simple is it to actually 'jam' GPS sytems?..is it...
