Vladimir Lobashev

Vladimir Mikhailovich Lobashev (Russian: Владимир Михайлович Лобашёв; July 29, 1934 – August 3, 2011) was a Soviet and Russian physicist and expert in nuclear physics and particle physics.

[1] In 1972, Lobashev became head of the Department of Experimental Physics at the Institute for Nuclear Research in Moscow.

[1] Lobashev's main areas of research were in P and CP invariance, and neutron and neutrino physics.

[1] His work on small effects of the non-conservation of spatial parity contributed to proving the universality of the weak interaction, and earned Lobashev the Lenin Prize in 1974.

[1] Lobashev found the most accurate limit then known on the electric dipole moment of the neutron, critical to the interpretation of CP violation.
