Igor Jurjewitsch Kobsarew

Igor Jurjewitsch Kobsarev (Russian Игорь Юрьевич Кобзарев; * October 15, 1932 in Leningrad, † January 20, 1991 in Moscow) was a Russian theoretical particle physicist.

Kobasarev was the son of Yuri Kobsarev (1905-1992), a radio and radio specialist who was a member of the Soviet Academy of Sciences and department head of the Institute for Radio Technology and Electronics. He became a student of Isaak Pomerantchuk at the Institute for Theoretical and Experimental Physics (ITEP), where he was later a scientist.

Kobsarev studied the physics of the kaons, structure of hadrons, spontaneous symmetry breaking in cosmology (with Lew Okun, he studied domain walls in cosmology in 1974) and general relativity. With Pomeranchuk and Okun, he suggested in the 1960s the existence of mirror worlds in cosmology, which interact only gravitatively with the known universe, an idea that was revived with Brane cosmology in the 1990s.

In addition to physics, he also studied philosophy. Edit source text Weblinks Edit sourcetext Standard data (person): LCCN: n78070321 VIAF: 7539149 Wikipedia People Search
