His main achievements
* The description of the super-phenomena - superconductivity and superfluidity - as a consequence of ordering zero-point oscillations.
* The theory of hot stars, built taking into account the gravity-induced electric polarization intrastellar plasma.
* The theory of Earth's magnetic field.
* The electromagnetic model of neutron and quantum mechanical nature of nuclear forthes.
* Electromagnetic nature of neutrinos.
* Discovery and study of thermo-magnetic effect in metals.
* The theory rf-SQUID.
* The experimental determination of the upper limit of the existence of an electric dipole moment of the electron,
in violation of CP and T invariance (the measurement results entered in the directory on the properties of elementary particles).
