Stishov, Sergei M., D. PM. S. Corresponding member of the General Physics and
Astronomy Department of the Academy in 1993. He is currently acting Director of
the L. F. Vereshchagin High Pressure Physics Institute at Troitsk in the Moscow
region.
Tatarskii, Valerian Ilich. Born in 1929 in Kharkov. Russian specialist in radio physics.
Corresponding member since 1976. He graduated from Moscow State University in
1952. In 1954, he joined the staff of the Institute of Atmospheric Physics of the
national academy. He developed a theory of the propagation of waves of differing
physical nature in a randomly homogeneous medium, particularly in a turbulent
medium. (GSE 30, p. 667.)
Timofeev, Petr V. Born in 1902 in Moscow. Corresponding member since 1953. He
was originally elected to the Technical Sciences Department, and his principal
membership is in the Mechanics and Control Processes Department. He graduated
from Moscow State University in 1925. In 1928 he joined the staff of the ARO
Electro-Technical Institute. He taught at the Moscow Higher Technical School from
1925 to 1928, at Moscow State University from 1926 to 1941, at the Moscow
Power Engineering Institute from 1933 to 1941, and at the N. E. Zhukovskii Air
Force Academy from 1945 to 1948. He has held professorial status since 1935. His
works are in the photoelectric effect, secondary electron emissions, gas discharges,
and electron optics. Recipient of the State Prize in 1946 and 1951. (GSE 25, p.
658.)
Timofeev, Vladislav B., D. PM. S. Corresponding member General Physics and
Astronomy Department of the Academy in 1993. He is currently President of the
Scientific Council on Problems of the "Physics of Semiconductors."
Troitskii, Vsevolod S., D. PM. S. Born in 1913 in Tula Oblast. Astronomer.
Corresponding member since 1974. He graduated from the University of Gorkiy in
1941 and joined the staff of the Gorkiy Radio physical Institute in 1948. Since
1956, he has been Deputy Director of the Radio Physics SRI in Gorkiy. Since 1973,
he has acted as Chief of the Radio Astronomy Observatory of the Radio Physics
Scientific Research Institute at Gorkiy that was established in the 1950s. The
institute is located at Gorkiy State University and has done research in plasma
physics, spectroscopic systems, and high powered microwave devices--and is also
involved in the search for life in outer space. His works are in radio astronomy.
Holder of the A. S. Popov Prize, 1974. (GSE 26, p. 373.)
Zeldovich, Boris Ia., D. PM. S. Corresponding member of the General Physics and
Astronomy Department and of the Urals Department since December 1987. In
1978, he was a senior researcher in the Phase Coniugation Department of the
Quantum Radio Physics Laboratory of the Radio Physics Division of the P. N.
Lebedev Physics SRI in Moscow. Since 1979, he has been a senior researcher in the
Mechanical Action of Laser Beams Laboratory of the Problems of Mechanics
Institute in Moscow that was established in 1955 to conduct research on gas
dynamic processes, combustion instabilities, plasma, laser beams and shock waves.
Zhelezniakov, Vladimir V. In 1984, he received the A. A. Belopolskii Prize in
Astronomy for his research in the astronomical sciences. Corresponding member
since 1987. In 1977, he was listed as a junior researcher at the Radio Astronomy
Observatory of the Radio Physics Scientific Research Institute in Gorkiy. He
currently serves on the Bureau governing body of the General Physics and
Astronomy Department of the Academy.
Zverev, Vitalii A., D. PM. S. Born in 1924. Corresponding member since 1979. Since
1960, he has been a senior researcher in the Radio Astronomy Observatory of the
Radio Physics Scientific Research Institute in Nizhnii Novgorod which was
established in 1956 as part of Gorkiy State University.
