GROSS 134 



Grinberg's major work is in theoretical electronics, the 

 theory of electromagnetic wave propagation, and in the theory 

 of elasticity. He formulated a general theory for the focusing 

 effect of electric and magnetic fields. He proposed the theory 

 of coastal refraction. He studied the problem of radio propa- 

 gation in heterogeneous spheres. Grinberg originated a unique 

 method of integrating equations of mathematical physics. He is 

 the author of the work, "Selected Questions on the Mathemati- 

 cal Theory of Electrical and Magnetic Phenomena" (1948) 

 (Stalin Prize, 1949).

E. F. Gross was born October 20, 1897. He graduated from 

 Leningrad University in 1924, and in 1938 became a professor 

 at this University. Beginning in 1944, he has been working 

 also at the Physico-Technical Institute of the U.S.S.R. Academy 

 of Sciences. In 1946 he was elected a Corresponding Member 

 of the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences and that same year a 

 recipient of a Stalin Prize.
