Research interests:
Research in general scattering theory, collision theory of atoms and ions where fundamental results were obtained regarding charge transfer, electron detachment and other processes which constitute a considerable part of the whole theory. Another research direction is related to the symmetry problems in atomic physics, particularly the Fock symmetry of the hydrogen atom and harmonic oscillator, small angle scattering, focusing etc. Important results were achieved in explaining the internal symmetry of the periodic table and so called (n+l,n) rule for filling in the energy levels. The third direction is related to the zero-range potential method in atomic physics (in collaboration with G. F. Drukarev and V. N. Ostrovsky). It is worth to mention some other original and surprising results: neutrino focusing (with A. M. Puchkov), the two-center Coulomb problem, extralong focal length telescopes with high angular resolution in outer space etc. In the past few years Yu. N. Demkov has been doing investigations of extra focusing of light nuclei in channelling in single crystals (in collaboration with German and Serbian colleagues).
