Abstract
The International Conference PhysicA.SPb was held 1-3 November 2016 in Saint-Petersburg, Russia. The Conference continues the tradition of Saint-Petersburg Seminars on Physics and Astronomy originating from mid-90s. Since then PhysicA.SPb maintains both scientific and educational quality of contributions delivered to the young audience. This is the main feature of the Conference that makes it possible to combine the whole spectrum of modern Physics and Astronomy within one event.
PhysicA.SPb/2016 has brought together about 300 students, young scientists and their colleague professors from many universities and research institutes across whole Russia as well as from Belarus, Ukraine, Germany, Finland, Netherlands, and France. Oral and poster presentations were combined into well-defined sections among which one should name Astronomy and Astrophysics, Optics and spectroscopy, Physics of ferroics, Nanostructured and thin-film materials, Mathematical physics and numerical methods, Devices and materials for the THz and microwave ranges, Biophysics, Optoelectronic devices, Surface phenomena, Physics and technology of energy conversion, Plasma physics, hydrodynamics and aerodynamics, Nuclear and elementary particle physics, Impurities and defects in solids, and Physics of quantum structures.
This issue of the Journal of Physics: Conference Series presents the extended contributions from participants of PhysicA.SPb/2016 that were peer-reviewed by expert referees through processes administered by the Presiders of the Organising and Programme Committees to the best professional and scientific standards. This was made possible by the efforts of the Sectional Editors of this Issue: Prof. Petr Arseev (Lebedev Physical Institute), Prof. Yuri Kusraev (Ioffe Institute), Prof. Alexander Ivanchik (Ioffe Institute), Prof. Polina Ryabochkina (Ogarev Mordova State University), Dr. Karina Litvinova (Aston University), Dr. Nikolay Bert (Ioffe Institute), Dr. Yana Kuznetsova (Ioffe Institute), Dr. Prokhor Alekseev (Ioffe Institute), Dr. Mikhail Dunaevskii (Ioffe Institute), Dr. Alexandra Kalashnikova (Ioffe Institute) and Prof. Dmitry Khokhlov (Moscow State University).
The Editors: Nikita S. Averkiev, Sergey A. Poniaev and Grigorii S. Sokolovskii
