The team of 21 authors includes the Head of the Laboratory of Kourovka Astronomical Observatory (Ural Federal University) Andrey Sobolev.

The scientists studied the problems associated with the formation and evolution of stars and planets, galaxies, the interstellar space, black holes. They also developed cosmological models for the Millimetron space observatory (project "Spectrum-M") equipped with 10-meter chilled mirror.
