About this person

Tateos Artemjevich Agekian was a Soviet astrophysicist of Armenian descent and one of the pioneers of Russian and world stellar dynamics. T. A. Agekian found two evolutionary sequences of stellar systems: nearly spherical and strongly flattened. He suggested essentially a new method to investigate the structure and kinematics of the Milky Way Galaxy. Found a new estimate for the dissipation rate in stellar clusters. Gave an exhaustive analysis of the photogravitational interaction between stars and gas clouds. An asteroid was named in his honor.
