He wrote the ten-volume Course in Theoretical Physics with his frequent collaborator Evgeny Lifschitz.
This man devised the infamous Theoretical Minimum entrance exam, which only 43 students in his time were able to pass. He created a list ranking scientists according to productivity from 0 to 5 on a logarithmic scale, awarding only Einstein the highest score of 0.5. This scientist was renowned for "trivializing things" in his lecture style by explaining complex natural laws with simple language. Though he was incarcerated for a year on suspicion of being a (*) German spy, this scientist led a team supporting the Soviet atomic program. He wrote the ten-volume Course in Theoretical Physics with his frequent collaborator Evgeny Lifschitz. For 10 points, name this Soviet theoretical physicist who won the Nobel Prize for Physics for his theory of superfluidity.
