Brian Pippard three-volumes encyclopaedia "Twentieth Century Physics". As the Cavendish Professor of Physics at Cavendish Laboratory, University of Cambridge, he compiled "Cavendish Problems in Classical Physics", based in large part on past examination questions for Cambridge physics students. Pippard was the doctoral supervisor of Brian David Josephson (awarded PhD in Physics in 1964) who in 1973 received the Nobel Prize in Physics (together with Leo Esaki and Ivar Giaever) for his discovery of what is known as the Josephson effect. Brian Pippard Sir Alfred Brian Pippard, FRS (7 September 1920 – 21 September 2008), was a British physicist. He was Cavendish Professor
Departments of the ITMO University cardiac devices, and wide-angle lenses are among some of the major achievements of this faculty. In 1934, the first scientific research laboratory was set up as part of the Department of Optical Glass Technology. The lab was useful in developing methods that eventually relieved the country from importing costly abrasives from the United States. By order of the dated 5 May 1946, the Faculty of Physics and Engineering prepared specialists in the area of physical optics, electronics, medical imaging and nucleur physics. During the period from 1946 to 1955, there were six graduations, the first one in 1950 with 24
