'''Alexander R. Karimov''' is a Russian plasma physicist associated with the National Research Nuclear University MEPhI in Moscow. In addition to his research on plasma dynamics, he has published a heterodox theoretical proposal on the nature of time. He is listed in ''[[The Worldwide List of Dissident Scientists]]''.<br />
<br />
==Work==<br />
Karimov's mainstream research is in plasma physics, including work on nonlinear plasma flows, wave–particle interaction and plasma acceleration in crossed magnetic fields.<br />
<br />
In the paper ''A Model of Discrete-Continuum Time for a Simple Physical System'' (''Progress in Physics'', Vol. 2, 2008), he proposes a description of time as having both discrete and continuous aspects and draws an analogy between time and temperature. This treatment of time departs from its standard role in physics as a smooth, continuous background parameter, which is the basis for its inclusion among heterodox contributions.<br />
