Chain Initiation

Аннотация

The formation of the chemical EPR spectroscopy scientific school established by Academician V.V. Voevodskii (1917–1967) is described, as well as the history of the development of the instrumentation basis for this new field of science in the USSR. Designing the first EPR spectrometers for the chemical radio spectroscopy initiated the appearance of the new science instrumentation area in our country. Basing on the recollections of the scientists and engineers and using the archive materials the author restored the succession of the relevant events and the names of their participants.
