KHARKOV

Kharkov was founded in 1655 as defensive settlement with a garrison

of 567 cossacks (Ukrainian soldiers).

Now it is the second largest city in Ukraine after Kiev. Kharkov is situated in

the undulating ground in the north-west of Ukraine. It occupies an area of more

than 320 square km, at 90 to 192 m above the sea level.

More than 1.5 million of people live now in Kharkov.

In 1805 the Kharkov Imperial University (now Karazin Kharkov National

University, KNU), the third university in Russia came into being.

Many outstanding scientists were working at the Kharkov University.

Among them there were well-known mathematicians M. Ostrogradsky

(1801-1861), A. Lyapunov (1857-1918), V. Steklov (1863-1926),

D.Sintsov, S. Bernstein, N. Akhiezer, prominent physicists N. Pilchikov,

Lev Landau, L. Shubnikov, D.Rozhansky, K. Sinelnikov,

A. Leipunsky, A. Akhiezer, E. Lifshits, I. Lifshits, biologist I. Mechnikov.

Many of these physicists were actively working at the Ukrainian

Physical-Technical Institute (UFTI, now it is the National Science Center

"Kharkov Institute of Physics and Technology, NSC KIPT), founded in 1928.
