Baldin, Alexander Mikhailovich

He graduated from the railway technical school, then entered the Moscow Institute of Transportation Engineers . In 1946, as an excellent student of study, he was invited to continue his studies at the Moscow Engineering Physics Institute (MEPI). After graduating from MEPhI in 1949, he was sent to the P. N. Lebedev Physical Institute of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR (FIAN), where he later became a doctor of science and professor.

In 1952 he became a master of sports in mountaineering and a champion of the USSR.

In 1968, at the suggestion of M.A. Markov, he was elected Director of the High Energy Laboratory of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR) in Dubna .

He was chairman of the Council on Electromagnetic Interactions of the Russian Academy of Sciences , a member of the Bureau of the Nuclear Physics Division of the Russian Academy of Sciences, chief editor of the journal Elementary Particles and Atomic Nuclei (ECHA) and Letters to Echaya, a member of the editorial boards of many scientific publications. Organizer of the International Seminars on High Energy Physics (since 1969).

In the 1960s, he lectured at the Faculty of Physics at Moscow State University named after MV Lomonosov , MEPI.

Scientific research in the field of elementary particle physics , electromagnetic interactions, nuclear physics , and accelerator theory.

• 1950-1952 Together with V. V. Mikhailov, for the first time in the pole approximation, he constructed the theory of photoproduction of mesons , for which he introduced the anomalous magnetic moments of nucleons .
• 1950-1952 With MS Rabinovich and VV Mikhailov, he proposed the method of envelopes and the theory of almost periodic motion in arbitrary magnetic fields.
• 1951 Predicted the basic laws of near-threshold photoproduction of mesons , which later received experimental confirmation ( USSR State Prize , 1973).
• 1957 Proved by the example of a proton , that the elementary particles must have electric and magnetic polarizability.
• 1959-1960 Introduced the concept of optical anisotropy of nuclei and developed the theory of tensor polarizability of nuclei .
• 1967 Opened the direct transition photon - vector meson on the example of decays of vector mesons into electron-positron pairs.
• 1971 Predicted and, together with V.S. Stavinsky, discovered a cumulative effect in the collision of relativistic nuclei.

Co-author of the JINR Synchrophasotron Project (1949). Laid the foundations of relativistic nuclear physics.
