Editorial Introduction to the Special Issue: THz Summer 2019 in Russia Vladimir Gavrilenko 1 & Mikhail Glyavin 2 & Alexander Shkurinov 3 Received: 17 August 2020 / Accepted: 25 August 2020/ # Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2020

We present the second special issue of the Journal of Infrared, Millimeter, and Terahertz Waves “THz summer 2019 in Russia.” It is a collection of articles, whose authors participated in various conferences held in Russia. In 2011 the first special issue of Journal of Infrared, Millimeter, and Terahertz Waves “THz summer 2010 in Russia” was released (volume 32, issue 10, October 2011). It included articles based on the talks made at Russian THz conferences held in the previous year. Since then these publications have demonstrated high citation history. In 2018–2019, there were a number of high level conferences devoted to THz field of science and technology held in Russia. That is why we decided to revive this tradition. The present special issue consists of 11 articles embracing a wide range of works, typical for Russian laboratories working in the THz field. There are articles on the development of novel THz sources and applications of THz radiation for biology and material science. You will also find works on application of THz radiation in high-resolution spectroscopy and other topics presenting interest to members of the THz community. Please see the full list of articles below: 1. Vladimir Vaks et al. Application of THz fast frequency sweep spectrometer for investigation of chemical composition of blood 2. Olga Kosareva et al. Tracing air-breakdown plasma characteristics from single-color filament terahertz spectra
