Kirill Gurov and Nikolay Bogolyubov obtained kinetic equations for
quantum systems by developing the method of quantum
BBGKY hierarchy. At the IMMS, Kirill Gurov worked on analysis of the
diffusion processes and the corresponding
phase transitions in
alloys. Since the middle of the 1970s, he worked on developing materials for space projects, participated in the
Apollo-Soyuz Test Project, and studied the effects of zero gravity on material properties. ==Books==
