The selection of works included in this special issue “Vortices and non-equilibrium phenomena in superconductors” is immediately related to the research activity of Valerij Alexandrovich Shklovskij and reflects a “cross-section” of some of his research interests. V. A. Shklovskij, who celebrated his 80th anniversary on August 24, 2019, is a prominent scientist whose theoretical works in the field of electronic and magneto-transport properties of conducting and superconducting systems are very well known in the scientific community. Currently, V. A. Shklovskij is professor of the I. M. Lifshitz Department of Theoretical Physics in the School of Physics of the V. N. Karazin Kharkiv National University, where he keeps on conducting active research work.
V. A. Shklovskij graduated from the School of Physics of the Kharkiv State University [now V. N. Karazin Kharkiv National University (KhNU), Ukraine] in 1966. Working as a scientist in the Theoretical Department of the Kharkiv Institute of...
