(2) Semerikov I A (Optics of Complex Quantum Systems Laboratory of the P N Lebedev Physical Institute (LPI), RAS, Moscow) “Quantum calculations on ultracold ions using ququarts”;

(3) Korenskii M Yu, Veselovskii I A (A M Prokhorov General Physics Institute, RAS, Moscow) “Use of fluorescent lidar to study atmospheric aerosol”;

(4) Sokolovskii G S (Laboratory of Integrated Optics on Heterostructures, A F Ioffe Physical-Technical Institute (PTI), St. Petersburg) “Quantum cascade lasers in the mid-IR range with record output power”;

(5) Khaidukov E V (Laboratory of Laser Biomedicine, Federal Scientific Research Center, Crystallography and Photonics, RAS, Moscow) “Crystalline nanomaterials with anti-Stokes photoluminescence for solving nanomedicine problems”;

(6) Mironov S Yu (Laboratory of Spatiotemporal Profiling of Femtosecond Laser Radiation, A V Gaponov-Grekhov Institute of Applied Physics (IAP), RAS, Nizhny Novgorod) “Nonlinear compression of petawatt laser pulses”;
