Памятник Курчатову, Bronze statue in Uralsk, Russia
The monument features a towering bronze figure of Igor Kurchatov standing between two 27-meter high pylons that represent a split atom.
The memorial was established in 1991 to honor Igor Kurchatov, the leading physicist who directed the Soviet atomic program during the mid-20th century.
The statue serves as a central gathering point for scientific events, academic ceremonies, and annual commemorations of Kurchatov's contributions to nuclear physics.
The monument underwent renovation in 2006, receiving new lighting systems and projectors to illuminate the structure during evening hours.
The architectural composition incorporates two massive pylons flanking the central figure, creating a visual representation of nuclear fission.
