A scientific session of the Physical Sciences Division of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS) was held on 26 March 2008 at the conference hall of the P N Lebedev Physical Institute, RAS. The following reports were presented at the session:
(1) Klimov V V (P N Lebedev Physical Institute, RAS, Moscow) "Nanoplasmonics";
(2) Istomin Ya N (P N Lebedev Physical Institute, RAS, Moscow) "Electron–positron plasma generation in the magnetospheres of neutron stars";
(3) Kosevich Yu A (N N Semenov Institute of Chemical Physics, RAS, Moscow) "Multichannel propagation and scattering of phonons and photons in low-dimension nanostructures".
An abridged version of these reports is given below.
