Radio Astronomy of NASU, A. Usikov Institute for Radio Physics and
Electronics of NASU, and V. Karazin National University of Kharkov
organized
on September 25-27, 2012 in Kharkov, Ukraine.
The Conference was dedicated to the memory of Prof. Pavel Bliokh, a
famous Ukrainian radio scientist, who was born 90 years ago.
General Information
The
physical and mathematical sciences have been one of Kharkiv V. N.
Karazin National University's strengths from the beginning. The
Department of Space Radio Physics is the youngest constituent
department in the
Research in the
department is conducted in the following two fields:
(1) space research and
(2) astronomy research.
Students are free to choose one of these areas, space research or astronomy.
The space research branch was
established in 1964 by Prof. V. A. Misyura.
The astronomy branch
was established in 1976 by Prof. L. N. Litvinenko http://rian.kharkov.ua/index.php/en/. The astronomy research is
conducted in the Institute of Radio Astronomy, National Academy of
Sciences of Ukraine (4 Krasnoznamennaya St., Kharkiv, 61002
Ukraine).
The Department now
occupies a few spacious rooms in the main building of Kharkiv V. N.
Karazin National University at the center of Kharkiv and operates Radiophysical
Observatory. The Radiophysical Observatory is a unique
facility in
The department's
reputation is grounded in its research work. The creativity and
enthusiasm of Department's staff generates an international reputation
in major areas of research including radio wave propagation,
ionospheric and space physics.
The Radiophysical
Observatory is located on a 50-acre delightful green hilltop
overlooking the
The faculty has
published about thirty textbooks. The latest textbooks
2. Statistical Radio Physics, Part II, Fluctuation Phenomena in Radio Engineering and the Basics of Statistical Theory of Radiowave Propagation, Westi Press Publishers, 2007, 196 pp., by A. A. Minakov and O. F. Tyrnov,
3. Statistical Radio Physics, Part III, The Effect of Random Inhomogeneities on Radiowave Propagation and Scattering, Westi Press Publishers, 2007, 194 pp., by A. A. Minakov and O. F. Tyrnov,
have been planned for MS and Ph.D. students and as reference books for researchers.
Over the years, the Statistical Radio Physics course was taught by Prof. Bliokh P. V., Prof. Tyrnov O.F., Prof. Fuks I. M., and Prof. Minakov A. A.
The Department has a student/faculty ratio of 1/3.
Each BS/MS/PhD
student is
assigned to a personal Supervisor who has overall responsibility for
the student’s
training and research. In addition, each student has a named instructor
from
research staff to whom they can turn for specific advice and guidance
and
who helps to monitor their progress.

The Department
comprises a group of talented and dedicated physicists, which means we
can offer a caring tutorial system — a friendly atmosphere in which to
learn alongside gifted practitioners.
The Department
promotes the professional development of students, outreach activities
and balance between observations, modeling, analysis programs, and
instrumentation development.
Faculty and Staff
The
Department instructs graduate and postgraduate students and engages in
research. The Department's total teaching staff of 26 individuals
includes four Full Professor, seven Associate Professors, and 14
Teaching Assistants and Graduate Instructors. The Department of Space
Radio Physics is one of the largest Departments in the
The Department
employs about
76 persons on campus. In addition to the faculty, there are research,
library
and administrative staff and many others who, directly or indirectly,
support
the teaching and research goals of the Department.
Seven former or
present members of the Department faculty and staff have been awarded
the Ukrainian State Prize in Sciences and Technology. They are Leonid
F. Chernogor, Leonid S. Kostrov, Vsevolod A. Misyura, Valentin A.
Podnos, Victor T. Rozumenko, Anatoly M. Tsymbal, and Oleg F. Tyrnov.
Five members of the
Department faculty and staff have been awarded the Prize of the
Ministry of Education, and six have received the Prize of the Council
of Ministers of the
