Correspondence between the titles of some Russian/Soviet journals and their English translations The information below was compiled by Grigori Sigalov in order to help scientists who are looking for English equivalents of Russian journals. I have once encountered this problem and found it to be rather involved matter, especially because most popular journals have changed their titles after splitting of the Soviet Union in late 1991.
The journals are given in the alphabetic order of Russian titles. Of course the following list is not complete. If you have some questions or info to be added to the list please let me know!
For the readers who have no cyrillic fonts installed (I hope you have), Russian text is transliterated by Roman letters.
