Institute of Electrophysics, Research institute in Yekaterinburg, Russia.
The Institute of Electrophysics is a research facility in Yekaterinburg focused on studying high-voltage phenomena and pulsed energy processes. The site houses specialized laboratories where scientists conduct experiments on electrical behavior and practical technological applications.
The institute was founded in 1986 when scientists relocated from Tomsk to Yekaterinburg to establish a new research group in high-power physics. This move marked the beginning of an active research tradition in the region for pulsed energy technologies.
The institute maintains a collaborative environment where 200 staff members, including 80 researchers, work together to advance scientific knowledge in electrophysics.
The institute occupies a purpose-built facility with modern research infrastructure on a campus with visitor access to designated areas. Weekday visits work best when laboratories are actively operating and tours can be arranged through advance contact.
The research group developed specialized expertise in generating and controlling extremely short, high-energy pulses, a specialization held by few institutions worldwide. This focused expertise in pulse technology has made the facility a center for specialized applications in industry and space research.
