  1. The Worldline ofВладимир ЕвгеньевичЗахаров • 1939 born (Russia) • 1948 (first sighting, Kazan, Tatarstan) • 1959 (second encounter, Moscow, Energy Institute) – Live with Plasma media • 1961 (landed in Siberian Campus/ “Academgorodok) True Love Affair • with “Water” (and Waves), shared with Love Affair with Poetry • 1970-tieth (Landau Institute, Chernogolovka) • Since 1990: Deliberate choice to live in one of the worlds most “arid zones” (Arizona)

  2. Science of Zakharov • Nonlinear collisionless “Landau Damping” (Paradox of non-vanishing collisions) • Parametric Instabilities of Periodic Waves in Non-Linear Media • Weak Turbulence Spectrum of Gravity Waves on Surface of Water • …implications followed to present days • Weak Turbulence Spectrum of Spin Waves

  3. Zakharov and Science (cont. 1) • Inverse Scattering Technique in Nonlinear Waves Propagation • ..Its ever expanding scope of applications.. • Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation as basic model for Nonlinear Wave Dynamics • From NLS to Zakharov Equations • Plasma Waves Collapse • Non-Kolmogoroff types of Strong Turbulence

  4. Zakharov and Science (cont.2) • Strong Langmuir Turbulence / “Predator vs. Pray” interplay • ..now ever expanding applications.. (Generation of Zonal Flows by Micro-turbulence) • Inverse Cascade in Weak Turbulence • Topological applications of Inverse Scattering Technique in Topology • Revenge of Water: “Killer Waves”

  5. Zakharov and Poetry • Is Poetry compatible with Theoretical Physics? (P.Dirac and R.Oppenheimer episode) • “Poet in Russia is more than a Poet..”
