Iosif Khriplovich

Iossif Benzionowitsch Chriplowitsch (Russian Иосиф Бенционович Хриплович, English transcription Iosif Benzionovich Khriplovich; born January 23, 1937 in Kiev ) is a Russian theoretical physicist.

Chriplowitsch is a senior scientist at the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics in Akademgorodok and professor of theoretical physics at the Novosibirsk State University.

Chriplowitsch showed in 1969 that later asymptotic freedom mentioned decrease of the coupling constant with decreasing distance in a non -Abelian gauge theory, the SU (2) theory, which serves as a theory for the electroweak sector of the Standard Model of elementary particles. In 1973 the property for the SU (3) theory that describes the strong interactions, shown by David Gross, David Politzer and Frank Wilczek (which it received the Nobel Prize ).

In the early 1970s he was one of the initiators (regardless of Marie- Anne Bouchiat and Claude Bouchiat in the West) to search for parity violation in atomic physics.

In 1980, he exhibited with Flambaum that exotic, possible due to the parity-violating component of the weak interaction, electromagnetic moments (introduced in 1958 by Zeldowitsch and Vak and called Anapol moments ) in nuclei by nuclear physics experiments should in principle be observable ( they showed an increase with the number of nucleons ). The effect was confirmed in 1997 by a group of researchers from the University of Colorado at cesium.

In 2004 he was awarded the Dirac Medal, along with Shuryak. In 2000 he became a member of the Russian Academy of Sciences. In 2005 he received the Pomeranchuk Prize with Arkady Vainshtein.
