Nowadays, the Faculty of Physics includes 19 Research and Educational Departments:
Atmospheric Physics Computational Physics General Physics I (Quantum Electronics) General Physics II (Chemical Physics) Molecular Biophysics Molecular Spectroscopy Nuclear Physics Optics Photonics Physics of High Energies and Elementary Particles. Polymer Physics Pure Mathematics and Mathematical Physics Quantum Magnetism Quantum Mechanics Radiophysics Solid State Electronics Solid State Physics Statistical Physics Terrestrial Physics
The research unit of the Faculty is comprised of two Research Institutes, which are the V.A. Fock Research Institute of Physics and the Research Institute of Radiophysics. Research divisions of all the Departments except of the Departmnet of Radiophysics belong to the Fock Institute of Physics. To further develop research activities in radiophysics, and, in partilular, to extend Academician Fock’s activities in the theory of diffraction and wave propagation around the Earth, in the year of 1995 the Institue of Radiophysics was established as the research unit of the Department of Radiophysics. The main fields of the Faculty’s research activities include: (a) Theoretical study of physical properties of elementary particles, atoms, molecules, liquids, and solids. Development of new methods and theories in physics of atomic, molecular and condensed systems. Physics in spaces with extra dimensions and non-commutative coordinates. (b) Complex study of electronic and molecular phenomena in solids and on inter-phase boundaries; (c) Linear and nonlinear physical optics, holography and physics of lasers. Quantum optics and its applications in quantim informatics. Low-dimentional semiconductor lasers. Study of physical properties of substance and interaction processes in gases, liquids and plasma (including active media of optical quantum generators and planet's atmosphere); (d) Study of atomic nucleus structure and the mechanism of nuclear interactions; (e) Experimental and theoretical studies of optical, electronic,and magnetic properties of nanostructures and non-linear processes in nano-objects.The development of neutron, X-ray, optical spectroscopy methods for the investigation of nanocomposites. (f) Study of molecular structure and physical properties of polymers and disperse systems. Investigation of liquid crystals, phase transitions and intermolecular interactions in condensed media; (g) Study, modelling and monitoring of physical fields and processes in geospheres (atmosphere, ionosphere, magnetosphere, hydrosphere, earth-crust, mantle, core) (h) Theoretical and experimental investigations into electromagnetic radiation and wave propagation in different media, non-linear waves and processes. Fundamental problems of radiophysics in satellite navigation. Radiophysical methods for exploring near-the-Earth space. They are described in the following sections for each of the Faculty’s Department in more detail. R esearch in the natural sciences is, by tradition, very international. This is also the case with our Faculty of Physics. To conduct their accelerator experiments, our physicists travel to CERN (Switzerland) and to DESY (Germany). The Institute has long-time and productive collaboration with the Universities and Research Institutes in Germany and USA, Sweden and Finland, Spain and The Netherlands, Switzerland and Italy, Great Britain and France, Poland and Czech Republic, Canada and Japan, Republic of Korea and China, and so on, and so on. And – naturally – visiting researchers and graduate students come to Old Peterhof from all corners of the earth, attracted by the experts and the facilities that have achieved international prominence.

Academician Vladimir Aleksandrovich Fock ( 1898 - 1974 ) V .A. Fock and Louis de Broglie in Paris, 1967
Vladimir Aleksandrovich Fock, one the greatest theoretical physicist of the XX-th century, was born in St. Petersburg. During all his life V.A.Fock was strongly connected with St. Petersburg where he was teaching at the University nearly 50 years. In 1916 V.A.Fock finished the real school and entered the faculty of physics and mathematics of the Petrograd University, but soon joined up the army as volunteer. In 1918 after demobilization he resumed his studies at the University. In 1922 he graduated from the University and was kept at the University to prepare for professorship. Before graduation from the University, V.A.Fock had already been the author of two scientific publications - one on the old quantum mechanics and the other on mathematical physics. Since then his scientific and teaching activity was mostly connected with the University (holding a post of graduated student, assistant, associate professor, professor, head of the chair and head of the theoretical physics department of the Physical Institute). Taking into account the outstanding scientific achievements of V.A.Fock the Academy of Sciences of the USSR elected him as a correspondent member in 1932 and as an academician in 1939. He was awarded the highest scientific domestic prizes. The works of V.A.Fock, devoted to a wide area of problems of theoretical physics: among which are quantum mechanics, quantum field theory, general relativity and mathematical physics (especially the diffraction theory) etc., had deeply influenced the modern development of theoretical and mathematical physics and received the world-wide recognition. Sometimes his views differed from the conventional ones. Thus, he argued with deep physical reasoning about using the term «theory of gravitation» instead of «general relativity». Many results and methods he developed reflected in such notions as Fock space, the Fock method in the second quantization theories, the Fock proper time method, the Hartree-Fock method, the Fock symmetry of the hydrogen atom and others. In his works on theoretical physics not only did he skillfully apply the advanced analytical and algebraic methods, but also created systematically new mathematical tools when the existing approaches were insufficient. His studies emphasized the principal significance of modern mathematical methods for theoretical physics, a fact that has become important nowdays. With time the significance of works of classics of science becomes more and more obvious, and V.A. Fock is undoubtedly such a classic. His name will stay forever in the history of science.
