Nikolai Kozyrev Astrophysicist Biography
Kozyrev: A brief scientific biography of L. Shikhobalov September 2 August 20 according to the old style of the year in St. Petersburg, a wonderful scientist - Nikolai Alexandrovich Kozyrev was born. He graduated from G. G. The first article was written by N. Kozyrev at the age of 15 - 16 years. In total, he published more than a hundred work of them sixteen together with V.
Ambartsumyan in - gg. Eropkin in, gg. Nasonov in, gg. The list of publications of the scientist is given in the collection of his chosen works [1]. Since November 7, Kozyrev was repressed rehabilitated in February, has four sons. Kozyrev is one of the pioneers of domestic theoretical astrophysics and a skilled astronomer -observer. In the city of Chandrakar, she was called the theory of Kozyrev-Chandrakar.
Developed the theory of solar spots. He found in G. came to the conclusion of a high, to K, temperature in the center of Jupiter. The achievements of the scientist in the study of other planets of the solar system are also known. The most significant result in the field of observation astronomy is the receipt of N.'s lunar volcanism on November 3 Kozyrev was awarded the International Academy of Astronautics in the city in our country this achievement of a scientist is registered as discovery N 76 from the name of Kozyrev is assigned to a small planet [8 - 10].
N. Kozyrev himself considered the main goal of his scientific activity to clarify the nature of star energy. In this work, a scientist, based on an analysis of an extensive observation astronomical material, came to the conclusion that the processes of thermonuclear synthesis cannot serve as the main source of stars [1, 11 - 15]. Kozyrev put forward a hypothesis, according to which the source of star energy is the current time.
For the first time, the scientist published his hypothesis in the book “causal or asymmetric mechanics in linear approaches” [1, 16], which had been published in the summer of this time for about twenty years has been engaged in the theoretical development of hypothesis and have been experimental research for more than seven years. Even the discovery of lunar volcanism was not the result of accidental luck, but by the fruit of targeted searches for scientists signs of internal activity of space bodies.
The presence of such activity in any sufficiently massive bodies inevitably flowed from its hypothesis. Developing his hypothesis, N. Kozyrev laid the foundations of a fundamentally new science - the theory of the physical properties of time or, as he called it, causal or asymmetric mechanics. The scientist devoted more than four decades to the development of this science.
He did a huge theoretical and experimental work, which he supplemented with a cycle of astronomical observations.
Kozyrev did not have time to complete the construction of his theory. He died on February 27 and was buried in the cemetery at the Pulkovo Observatory. Biographical information about the scientist is given in reference books and articles [17 - 20]. N. Kozyrev speaks of the high spirituality of N. Kozyrev the following poem by A. Voznesensky [21]. There is a Russian intelligentsia.
You thought - no? Not a mass of indifferent, but the conscience of the country and honor. I do not respect flattery. There are vices in my fatherland, but there are prophets. Such as outside corrosion, nostrils of the Petersburg, Nikolai Alexandrovich Kozyrev - heavenly intellectual. He does not notice pickpockets. He appeared in the world to erase the second law of thermodynamics and with it thermal death.
When he gives lectures, over the department, shaved all - he is overlooking the intelligentsia indicating a finger pointing to the sky. Literature Kozyrev N. Selected works.
