Evgenii Feinberg
Evgenii L'vovich Feinberg was a Soviet physicist, recognized for his contributions to theoretical physics.
He was the son of a physician, born in Baku, moving to Moscow in 1918 where he graduated from Moscow State University as a theoretical physicist in 1935.
He did research at the Lebedev Physical Institute
in Troitsk, Moscow Oblast from 1938, where he published over a hundred
works in his field. Feinberg studied radio physics,
statistical acoustics, the neutron, cosmic rays and particle physics.
In his early years, he studied the beta-decay of ionized atoms,
inelastic coherent processes and inelastic diffraction
processes.
Feinberg headed the high-energy particle interaction research groups 1952–78. He was a guest professor at Nizhny Novgorod State University 1944–46 and a
professor at his former school, Moscow Engineering Physics Institute 1946–54, which later became the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology.
