Description: 
Kazan' State University was founded in 1804. Today it has a 
student body of about 6,000. Candidate's and Doctor's Degrees are granted 
and a Uchenyye Zapiski is published. 
One of the most active research groups in the University is the 
Physies Department. Considerable experimentation has been performed on the 
nuclear magnetic resonance and paramagnetic resonance of various materials. 
Workers at the University have designed and constructed devices, such as a 
nuclear-magnetic relaxometer and a nuclear-magnetic-resonance spectrometer. 
The nuclear-magnetic relaxometer was developed in the Laboratory of Magnetic 
Radiospectroscopy. Other fields of investigation include nuclear spin, 
neutron beams, spark and glow discharge of electrodes, refraction of 
microwaves, effect of solar flares on cosmic rays, communication systems, 
and theory of gravitation. Workers in the Department have designed photo- 
electric equipment for spectrophotometric observation of the moon and 
planets. The University has played a leading part in designing equipment 
for automatic control of oil wells and other petroleum-industry equipment. 
In mathematics, students and staff at the University have studied 
nonlinear integrodifferential equations, equations of gravitational fields, 
topological spaces, conformal mapping, infinite systems of equations, 
equations in functional derivatives, geometric mapping of Hinsteinian space, 
and boundary-value problems.
