This two-volume set is the definitive Soviet monograph on the Vavilov–Cherenkov effect—the characteristic blue glow emitted when a charged particle passes through a dielectric medium at a speed exceeding the phase velocity of light in that medium. Author Vasily Zrelov, a prominent experimentalist at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR) in Dubna, was a direct successor to the Nobel Prize-winning work of Pavel Cherenkov. The first volume focuses on the physical nature and properties of the radiation. It provides a rigorous theoretical treatment based on the classical Frank–Tamm formula, but its unique strength lies in Zrelov's own pioneering research into radiation within anisotropic media (crystals). The second volume is dedicated to the practical "Cherenkov counters" and detectors that became the backbone of modern high-energy physics. Zrelov systematically evaluates different types of counters—gas, liquid, and solid—used for measuring particle velocity and energy in accelerators. He also explores the subtle connections between Cherenkov radiation and transition radiation, a field essential for identifying ultra-relativistic particles. Translated into English shortly after its release, this work remains a cornerstone of nuclear instrumentation literature. This set, preserved in its original dust jackets, is an essential resource for historians of physics and a collector's item documenting the height of Soviet experimental mastery during the atomic age.
