Maxim Zhiganov has been exploring different aspects of sound for many years—first in relation to his native Perm and then on a broader, global scale. In this interview for the HSE Young Scientists project, he talks about sound maps, the special issue of the journal Logos, and why it is important to make the familiar less clear and obvious.
Neural networks are no longer simple travel assistants; now they decide what to include on the route and what to skip. Artificial intelligence changes how people perceive a place and shapes the image of tourist centres. At the II International Scientific and Practical Conference ’Information Technologies in the Preservation and Promotion of Cultural Heritage,’ researchers discussed who controls algorithmic solutions and in what ways, and whether authentic traditions get lost in them.
Worldwide, road injuries are the leading cause of death among males aged 10–39. An international team of researchers reached this conclusion as part of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2023, analysing data from 204 countries between 1990 and 2023. Their findings have been published in The Lancet Public Health, with HSE University Professor Vasily Vlassov listed among the collaborators.

Experimental investigation of decomposition of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) contained in an H2+O2 or CH4+O2 gaseous mixtures, combustion of which is initiated by high-current pulse slipping surface discharge, has been carried out. It was found that a ternary gaseous mixture of H2+O2+CFC or CH4+O2+CFC even with a large amount of the third component, maintains the explosion combustion ...

Ammonia is a technically feasible carbon-free alternative fuel for industrial heat, power generation, and transport. The main advantages of using ammonia as a fuel are its low storage and transportation costs, low fire hazard and the availability of existing infrastructure. The present review addresses the following issues: combustion of ammonia and its mixtures in porous ...
