On the organization of collaborative work in the Laboratory of Physical Chemistry at the Mining Institute

Abstract

Scientific research carried out jointly by several individuals always gives rise to rumors about the degree of participation of individual researchers in the overall work, and these rumors often take on a highly unpleasant character. To avoid the latter, I consider it necessary to note that in works published jointly on behalf of myself and the names of my students, both the topic and the plan of its elaboration belong to me. Preparatory work, such as preparation of solutions, determination and calculation of their concentration, analysis, etc., is carried out entirely by my employees.
