P.L. Kapitza Institute for Physical Problems RAS, Research institute in Gagarinsky District, Moscow, Russia

The P.L. Kapitza Institute for Physical Problems, founded in 1934, conducts research in physics with specialized laboratories and experimental facilities across multiple departments.

The institute transferred research activities from England to the Soviet Union when physicist Pyotr Kapitza established the facility under government decree in December 1934.

Three scientists from this institute received Nobel Prizes in Physics for their research on helium properties and superconductor characteristics throughout its operational history.

The institute maintains two scientific publications: Journal of Experimental and Theoretical Physics and Letters to the Journal of Experimental and Theoretical Physics.

Despite having fewer than 50 scientific staff members, the institute has generated numerous groundbreaking discoveries in low-temperature physics and plasma physics research.

Location: Gagarinsky District

Inception: 1934
