He is the author of over 350 scientific papers. His scientific interests are in the field of nuclear energy and the development of nuclear weapons, proceedings on hydrodynamics, turbulence, detonation, physics of thermonuclear fusion, physics of high energy densities, extreme states of matter, and the development of laser and optoelectronic systems. He proposed an empirical model of the kinetics of detonation of low-sensitivity explosives. He is a participant in the development of nuclear production prototypes in service with the Russian Armed Forces.
In 2003, he was elected a corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Sciences in the Department of Energy, Mechanical Engineering, Mechanics and Control Processes of RAS. In 2011, he was elected a full member of the Russian Academy of Sciences.[6]
