Umreiko, Dmitry Stepanovich

Born March 18, 1934 in Minsk .

Dmitry Stepanovich - a participant in the Great Patriotic War .

At the beginning of World War II, he and his family moved to the village of Lava, Kopylsky District , where his grandfather lived.

From May 1942 to June 1944 he was connected in the partisan detachment of them. CM. Budyonny 95th brigade. M.V. Frunze , which was deployed in the Minsk region . The partisan detachment organized a headquarters in the house of the grandfather, and little Dima was assigned the role of a liaison . Dmitry Stepanovich became one of the youngest participants in the partisan movement in Belarus .

In 1951 he graduated from high school No. 42 with a gold medal. His teacher, who studied with the future Nobel Prize winner in physics Zh. I. Alferov , managed to instill interest in physics and Umreiko. Abilities for the exact sciences, in particular for physics, played a large role in choosing his future path.

In 1951, Umreiko entered the Faculty of Physics and Mathematics of BSU named after V.I. Lenin .

After graduating in 1956 with honors from the Faculty of Physics and Mathematics of BSU named after V.I. Lenin and began his scientific career at the Department of Physical Optics . Umreiko, as an excellent student, was recommended to graduate school to the academician of the Academy of Sciences of the BSSR A.N. Sevchenko .

After completing a postgraduate course from 1959 to 1999 , Dmitry Stepanovich worked as a teacher in the department of physical optics , going from a junior research assistant to a professor . ( Junior Researcher , Assistant , Senior Lecturer , Associate Professor , Professor, Department of Physical Optics ).

In 1962 he successfully defended his thesis .

From 1964 to 1971, Umreiko led and was the first to lead the university’s research sector.

In 1966, he was awarded the academic title of assistant professor .

In 1971 he defended his doctoral dissertation in the specialty "Optics".

In 1971, the first university research institute of applied physical problems was opened (NII PFP named after A.N. Sevchenko BSU, now the research institution "Institute of Applied Physical Problems named after A.N. Sevchenko" BSU).

Since 1971 , he worked as the chief scientific employee of the Research Institute of the Faculty of Physics and Technology named after Sevchenko BSU.

From 1971 to 1979, he was deputy director for scientific work at the Research Institute of the PFP them. Sevchenko BSU.

In 1972, he was awarded the title of Professor of the Department of Physical Optics .

Since 1996, a full member of the Belarusian Academy of Engineering.

Until 2014, he worked at the Research Institute of the TFE.

December 23, 2015, after a long illness, died at the 82nd year of life.

Dmitry Spetanovich Umreiko made a great contribution to the organization of scientific research at BSU . He is one of the organizers of the Scientific Research Institute of Applied Physical Problems (NII PFP).

The professor has formed and is successfully developing an important scientific area - molecular spectral-structural analysis of coordination compounds of heavy metals (including metals of planin and uranium groups), which is fundamental for solving computer problems, automated search for structures with predetermined properties, and creating new promising materials. In this area, the professor made some progress in developing spectroscopic methods for establishing structural laws and their relationship with the physicochemical and biological properties of both small and large molecules and complex systems based on them.

D.S. Umreiko and L.V. Volodko were the first graduate students of the academician of the Academy of Sciences of the BSSR A.N. Sevchenko , short headed the department of physical optics . While working at the department, Dmitry Stepanovich conducted research on spectroscopy of uranyl compounds - a direction founded by teacher A.N. Sevchenko academician S.I. Vavilov (President of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR , one of the founders of the modern science of luminescence ). These areas - theoretical and applied optics and spectroscopy - were the basis for the development of science at the Department of Laser Physics and Spectroscopy .

The professor is the author of a large cycle of work on the problem of gas-dynamic control systems for laser beams. He also carried out the development of new methods for the analysis of complex multicomponent gaseous media (moisture-containing, aggressive, high-temperature), based on creating a gradient of the refractive index in the stream under study and measuring the spatial characteristics of the probe light beam. These methods have found application in industry and in solving some environmental problems, have been recognized at a high level and awarded with diplomas, gold and silver medals of the VDNH of the USSR and at international exhibitions. For the mentioned cycle of work to the professor with a group of employees in 1991 . Award of the Council of Ministers of the Republic of Belarus .

Over the past decade, he has actively participated in the implementation of projects of the State programs of basic research and projects of the Belarusian Republican Foundation for Basic Research of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus . In particular, under the program “Crystal and Molecular Structures” he obtained significant results on the development of methods for spectral analysis of the structure and physicochemical properties of complex compounds (nanoclusters) of tetravalent uranium with complex organic ligands, as well as practically important polymeric materials based on polyurethane foams used in quality of thermal insulation and sorption systems. All these fundamentally new studies have deservedly been praised by the scientific community and are of fundamental and applied value. Studies of complex systems are summarized in a two-volume monograph and a number of other monographs written by Dmitry Stepanovich in collaboration with colleagues in 2000-2006 .

Dmitry Stepanovich conducted a large pedagogical, educational, organizational work. His lecture courses for university students have always been distinguished by a deep and creative presentation of the material studied.

He actively participated in the work of the councils of BSU and the Institute of Physics of the NAS of Belarus on the defense of doctoral and candidate dissertations .

Over the years, he was a member of the editorial board of the Journal of Applied Spectroscopy, a corresponding member of the European Academy of Sciences, Arts and Literature , a scientific editor of the textbook Theoretical Metrology.

He prepared 8 doctors and 26 candidates of sciences in physical, technical and chemical specialties.

According to the results of research, Dmitry Stepanovich published more than 380 scientific papers, including 5 monographs, 4 textbooks on the spectroscopy of polyatomic molecules, received more than 50 copyright certificates for inventions and patents.

He was awarded the Order of the Patriotic War II degree ( 1985 ), the medal "Partisan of the Patriotic War II degree" , and many jubilee medals.

In 1971 he was awarded the Certificate of Merit of the Supreme Council of the BSSR for successes in research, scientific-organizational and pedagogical activity.

In 1991, the Prize of the Council of Ministers of the Republic of Belarus was awarded.

In 1993 he became the winner of the A.N. Sevchenko .

In 1994 he was awarded the Certificate of Honor of the Supreme Council of the Republic of Belarus .

In 1999 he was awarded the honorary title “Honored Scientist of the Republic of Belarus” .

In 2010, the honorary title “Honored Worker of the Belarusian State University” was awarded.

He was awarded gold and silver medals of the VDNH of the USSR and other international exhibitions.

He was awarded 2 orders of the Red Banner of Labor , Red Star , “Badge of Honor" , 7 medals.

He was awarded the Medal of Honor of the American Biographical Institute ( USA ). The scientific biography of Dmitry Stepanovich is included in the directory of the International Biographical Center in Cambridge ( United Kingdom ).
