Participation of V. S. Vladimirov in work on the USSR atomic project: A significant milestone in the development of the foundations of mathematical modeling of the processes of neutron physics

摘要

This paper is dedicated to the 90th anniversary of the birth of a leading Soviet and Russian scientist and a member of the USSR Academy of Sciences: Academician Vasilii Sergeevich Vladimirov. Vladimirov, one of the strongest contemporary mathematicians, worked from 1951 through 1955 at KB-11 (today, the Russian Federal Nuclear Center - All-Russian Scientific Research Institute for Experimental Physics), the "secret facility" where development of atomic weaponry was conducted. We present the main results of Vladimirov's scientific activity connected with his work on the USSR atomic project.
