Evgeny Mikhailovich Lifshitz (Russian: Евгений Михайлович Лифшиц; February 21, 1915 – October 29, 1985) was a notable Soviet physicist. February 21 is the 52nd day of the year in the Gregorian Calendar. ... 1915 (MCMXV) was a common year starting on Friday (see link for calendar). ... October 29 is the 302nd day of the year (303rd in leap years) in the Gregorian Calendar, with 63 days remaining. ... This article is about the year. ... A physicist is a scientist trained in physics. ...

(Some commonly encountered alternative transliterations of his names include Yevgeny or Evgenii and Lifshits.) Transliteration in a narrow sense is a mapping from one system of writing into another. ...

With Lev Landau, he co-authored a beloved series of physics textbooks, which are still widely used as of 2006. The texts are rarely referred to by their titles; more often as Landau and Lifshitz, Landau, or simply Landafshitz. Lev Davidovich Landau Lev Davidovich Landau (Russian language: Ле́в Дави́дович Ланда́у) (January 22, 1908 – April 1, 1968) was a prominent Soviet physicist and winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics whose broad field of work included the theory of superconductivity and superfluidity, quantum electrodynamics, nuclear physics and particle physics. ... A black hole concept drawing by NASA. Physics (from the Greek, φυσικός (physikos), natural, and φύσις (physis), nature) is the science of the natural world dealing with the fundamental constituents of the universe, the forces they exert on one another, and the results produced by these forces. ...
