		Pyotr Kapitsa was a Russian physicist who directed the Mond Laboratory in England and the Physical Problems Institute in the Soviet Union during the 1930s and 1940s.
		Kapitsa's research on magnetism at the Polytechnic Institute occurred in the midst of the collapse of czarist Russia and the turmoil of the Bolshevik Revolution.
		Kapitsa's skill and dedication as a teacher, as well as his administrative abilities, were almost as important to physics as the contributions of his research itself.
