Prime Elements of Ordinary Matter, Dark Matter & Dark Energy - Beyond Standard Model & String Theory

Vladimir B. Ginzburg was born in Moscow, Russia. In 1954 he finished a technical school and then served in the Russian air force as an aircraft mechanic. After his discharge in 1958, while working full-time, he received an M.S. degree in mechanical engineering in 1961 and a Ph.D. degree in technical sciences in 1968. The main topic of his work in Russia was the research and development of magnetoelastic transducers for drilling rigs. In 1974, he moved with his family to the United States where he developed computer models for simulation of technological processes and practically implemented them in the metal industry. In 1992, he extended a scope of his scientific studies to include mathematical modeling of phenomena related to physics of both micro- and macro-words that belong to several spacetime levels of the Multiverse. He received over 60 U.S. and foreign patents and published several books and articles related to his research and development work in science and engineering.
