Biography
A graduate of the Faculty of Physics and Mathematics of Kharkov University (1949, after which until 1961 he worked as an assistant, assistant professor and professor of theoretical physics at the same university.
In 1961-1967 - Head of the Institute of Physics, Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR.
Since 1963 - at the same time professor at T. G. Shevchenko Kiev State University . Since 1965 he headed the Department of Theory of Nucleus and Elementary Particles of KSU.
From 1968 until the end of his life, A. G. Sitenko worked at the N. N. Bogolyubov Institute of Theoretical Physics of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, first in 1968–2001, as head of the theory and nuclear reactions department, and since 1998, as director of this institute.
He lived in Kiev. He died in 2002. He was buried at the Bike cemetery .
Scientific activity
Conducted research in the field of nuclear interactions and processes in plasma. In 1955, the first introduced the dielectric constant tensor for plasma in a magnetic field, taking into account spatial dispersion. He developed the theory of electromagnetic fluctuations in plasma, the nonlinear theory of fluctuations and turbulent processes in it, and predicted the Raman scattering of electromagnetic waves in plasma. The diffraction theory of nuclear processes in world literature is called the Sitenko- Glauber method.
The works of A. G. Sitenko are devoted to nuclear physics and plasma physics. In 1959, he became the author of the theory of diffraction nuclear processes at high energies with the participation of complex nuclear particles, together with A.I. Akhiezer in 1954 he predicted diffraction splitting of the deuteron . He developed the theory of quasielastic scattering of high - energy electrons by nuclei (1960).
The scientist makes a fundamental contribution to the theory of the interaction of high-energy particles and nuclear systems with nuclei. Modern ideas about nuclear processes of collisions at high energies involving complex particles are based on the general theory of multiple diffraction scattering that he constructed.
