Rem Soloukhin

Rem Soloukhin is a astronomy topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Rem Soloukhin rather than just read about it. In short: Rem Ivanovich Soloukhin (Russian: Рем Иванович Солоухин, 19 November 1930 – 6 January 1988) was a Soviet scientist, specializing in physics and mechanics. Along with Antoni K.

Key takeaways

Rem Soloukhin belongs to astronomy; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Rem Soloukhin to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Rem Soloukhin from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Rem Ivanovich Soloukhin (Russian: Рем Иванович Солоухин, 19 November 1930 – 6 January 1988) was a Soviet scientist, specializing in physics and mechanics. Along with Antoni K. Oppenheim (Berkeley) and Numa Manson (Paris), he founded the International Committee on Gasdynamics of Explosions and Reactive Systems (ICDERS) in 1967.

Biography Rem Soloukhin was born in a teachers' family in Gus-Khrustalny, Soviet Union in 1930. He graduated from Faculty of Physics of Moscow State University in 1953 and became PhD in 1957. In 1959, Soloukhin, together with Mikhail Lavrentyev, moved to work in Novosibirsk in Akademgorodok, where he developed a scientific direction at the Lavrentyev Institute of Hydrodynamics, which had already begun at the Krzhizhanovsky Energy Institute. In addition, he takes an active part in the creation of the Novosibirsk State University (NSU) and becomes the first dean of the Faculty of Physics, and then vice-rector for scientific and educational work. In 1967, Soloukhin together with Antoni K. Oppenheim and Numa Manson established the International Committee on Gasdynamics of Explosions and Reactive Systems. He taught at Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (1958–1959), then became a professor at Novosibirsk State University (1965), the first dean of Faculty of Physics and vice-chancellor (1962–1967). From 1971 to 1976 he was director of the Institute of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (ITAM) of the Siberian Branch of the Academy of Sciences of the Soviet Union. Since 1976, he lived and worked in Minsk. From 1976 to 1987 he was director of the A. V. Lykov Institute of Heat and Mass Transfer of the Academy of Sciences of the BSSR and head of the Department of Thermal Physics at BSU named after V. I. Lenin. Rem Soloukhin explored physics of combustion, explosion, and shock waves. Also, he was interested in gas dynamics and became the author of more than 400 scientific works. Soloukhin was awarded the Lenin Prize (1965), Order of the October Revolution (1980), Order of the Red Banner of Labour (1967), and two Orders of the Badge of Honour (1961, 1975). In his memory, the grants for students of Novosibirsk State University and the international award for the best experimental work of Soloukhin's name were established.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Rem Soloukhin

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Rem Soloukhin claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In astronomy, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Rem Soloukhin before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Rem Soloukhin ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Rem Soloukhin

In research: Rem Soloukhin appears in astronomy research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Rem Soloukhin in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Rem Soloukhin is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1930 births, 1988 deaths, Academic staff of Belarusian State University, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Rem Soloukhin outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
