Vitaly Ginzburg, a Nobel-prize winning Russian physicist and one of the fathers of Soviet hydrogen bomb, has died in Moscow. He was 93.
The Russian Academy of Sciences says Ginzburg died late Sunday of a cardiac arrest. Ginsburg won the 2003 Nobel Prize in physics for his contribution to theories on superconductivity, the ability of some materials to conduct electricity without resistance. In the early 1950s, Ginzburg was part of the Soviet government project to develop a hydrogen bomb. (AP)
