Reactions” (1984.) He graduated from the Novosibirsk State University in 1965,
and began working at the Chemical Kinetics and Combustion Institute of the
Siberian Department as a scientific researcher, both junior and senior, and
Scientific Secretary, and Head of the Laboratory of Magnetic Phenomena, and in
1983, he was named Deputy Director of that institute. In 1979 he was elected a
member of the Natural Sciences Photochemical Society. He received the Lenin
Prize in 1986. In 1989, the Presidium of the Siberian Department established the
Siberian Topography Center that is under the direction of Dr. Sagdeev who is also
Director of the Institute of Chemical Kinetics and Combustion.
Shorygin, Petr P., D. Chem. S. Born in 1911. Corresponding member since 1981.
Since 1970, he has been the Director of the Optics Laboratory of the N. D. Zelinskii
Organic Chemistry Institute in Moscow that was established in 1934 to do
theoretical and experimental research in chemistry and to produce catalysts for the
chemical industry. Winner--with others--of the 1979 State Prize in Science and
Technology for works on the spectroscopic resonance combined diffusion of light
and its application in chemistry.
Tal'roze, Viktor L., D. Chem. S. Born in 1922 in Tula. Russian physical chemist.
Corresponding member since 1968. He graduated from Moscow State University
in 1947 and began work at the Institute of Chemical Physics of the AN SSSSR
immediately. Since 1954, he also worked at the Moscow Physico-Technical
Institute where, since 1961, he has headed the subdepartment of chemical physics.
Since 1969, he has been Deputy Director of the Chemical Physics Institute in
Moscow, and since 1978, Head of the Physical Methods Division of the Chemical
Physics Institute in Moscow. Since 1977, he has occupied the post of dean of the
Molecular and Chemical Physics Faculty at the Physical Technical Institute in
Moscow. In 1984, he was awarded--with others-- the Lenin Prize for his work on
using lasers in chemical chain reactions. His works deal with the kinetics of
chemical reactions occurring under irradiation and with the application of physical
methods to chemistry, especially in the spectroscopic study of the reactions of many
free radicals and ions. (GSE 25, p. 344.)
Trofimov, Boris A., D. Chem. S. Born in 1938. Chemist. Specialist in General
chemistry and in hetero-atomic substances--such as acetylene. Corresponding
member since 1990. Deputy Director of the Organic Chemistry Institute in Irkutsk.
He has authored and co-authored some 397 scientific works. Four of his six
monographs are considered to be important contributions. He has directed the
postgraduate work of four doctoral students and of 45 aspirants for the candidate
degree. He was on the Scientific Council on chemistry and technology of organic
substances for the GKNT; on the coordinating committee of the Radio Industry
Ministry of the SSSR; on the Scientific Council on the chemical sciences for the
Siberian Department; an inspector on the Committee for Dissertations for the
candidate of science degree for the Irkutsk Institute of Organic Chemistry, and on
the editorial boards of several major journals: “Sulfur Reports,” “Sulfur Letters,”
and the Organic Chemistry Journal of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
Tsvetkov, Iurii D., D. Chem. S. Born in 1933. Chemical physicist. Corresponding
member since 1984--and reconfirmed in 1992. He graduated from the Moscow
Physico-Technical Institute in 1957 and worked at the Institute of Chemical Physics
from 1957 to 1959. In 1959, he joined the Institute of Chemical Kinetics and
Combustion Institute of the Siberian Department, as a junior researcher, a Scientific
Secretary, a senior researcher, and Head of a laboratory studying the chemistry and
physics of free radicals (1968), and Deputy Director of that institute from 1968 to
1971. In 1983 he was Head Scientific Secretary of the Siberian Department of the
AN SSSR, and in 1992, he was reconfirmed as the Head Scientific Secretary of the
Siberian Department of the Russian Academy of Sciences. He has been on the
Presidium of the Siberian Department since 1985. Since 1973, he has been a
