Bioenergetics in its main initial discoveries stemmed from the science developed in the Soviet Union before
the World War 2. Later, it became one of the most popular biological sciences in the world basing on fundamental
knowledge of biology, physics, and biochemistry. Bioenergetics impressively flourished in the second
part of the XX century which was rewarded with two Nobel prizes directly related to bioenergetics. Basic
principles of bioenergetics as a science exploring production, transmission, and transduction of energy in
living cells became irrefutable due to efforts of scientists all over the world with great contributions of Russian
scientists.

Khalatnikov will turn one hundred years old. His works are devoted
to the theoretical problems of quantum physics, superfluidity
and superconductivity, quantum electrodynamics and cosmology.
In all these areas of physics, Khalatnikov’s papers were
an outstanding phenomenon and rightfully entered the treasury
of science. We are proud of the fact that Khalatnikov is the
founder of the Landau Institute for Theoretical Physics and its
first director from 1965 till 1992. The broad scope of his scientific
interests is manifested in the variety of areas in which the
scientific staff of the Landau Institute is still working. In honour
of the 100th anniversary of Isaak Khalatnikov, the Landau Institute
organizes the international conference. In accordance with
Khalatnikov’s broad interests, the conference will be devoted to
the modern frontiers of theoretical physics from the kinetics of
quantum systems to cosmology.

Development of propulsion engines operating on continuous and pulse detonations is a subject of growing interest worldwide. The concept of a detonation engine is attractive for simplicity, easy scaling, reduced fuel consumption, and intrinsic capability of operation from zero approach stream velocity to high supersonic flight speeds. In the detonation-based power plants, detonation is initiated in a tube that serves as the combustor. The propagating detonation wave rapidly burns the fuel in the chamber resulting in a nearly constant-volume heat addition process that produces a high pressure in the combustor and provides the thrust. The operational cycle of such power plants provides a higher thermodynamic efficiency as compared to the Brayton cycle used in gas turbines and ramjets.
