Three Ideas by Russian Philosophers Worth Exploring
Chilean Researcher Ivan Martinez – on “Serious Russians,” Loving Chemistry, and Traveling for Science
…r’s. Looking back, are you satisfied with your choice? Indeed, I decided to continue studying at my alma mater. I loved – and still do – working in a laboratory, generating new ideas, analyzing data, and conducting research. Science makes me feel like I’m doing something good for society. And that feeling keeps me motivated. But, of course, not everything works…

ITMO Scientists Increase Sensitivity of Levitating Particle Sensors
…vitating in a quadrupole trap and identified two modes of its movement: linear (low-amplitude oscillations) and nonlinear (movement along a rhombus-like trajectory). In the new study, the team has for the first time considered the phase transition between linear and nonlinear movement and found the optimal state in which the microparticle becomes extremely sensiti…

ITMO Scientists Design Model to Analyze Surfaces of All Sizes
…h surfaces of a specific scale: either nano-or micro-sized (e.g., nanoparticles) or macro-level (e.g., satellite images of the Earth) objects. ITMO physicists created a new algorithm that can analyze the parameters of relief surfaces of almost any size – from nanoscale textures of thin polymer-based films to macrosized data on the topography of the planet’s mo…
