He, working with his friend I.M. Kapchinsky, created the Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) principle, which was very important dealing with the speed of low energy [[ion]] beams. ==Life== Teplyakov was born in the [[USSR]] on November 6, 1925. He was made to join the [[Red Army]] in January 1943 and fought in the [[Second World War]] on the [[Ukraine|Ukrainian]] front. After the war ended, he went to and graduated from the All-Union Correspondence Polytechnic Institute in Moscow. After leaving school, he began work at the Institute of Chemical Physics. From 1959-1966, he worked at Chelyabinsk-70, where he kept up his study of high-current [[proton]] [[wikt:accelerators|accelerators]]. In 1966, he and several of the people that he worked with were moved to the Institute of High Energy Physics in Protvino, Russia. ==Civilian honours== *[[Lenin Prize]] in 1998 for his work on creating the RFQ. *[[Order of Lenin]] and the Order of the October Revolution. ==Military honours== *Order of Glory, 3rd class the *Order of the Patriotic War, 2nd Class *medal for the Capture of [[Vienna]]. ==Notes and references== * [http://resources.metapre
