Biographic Brief: Inal Georgiyevich Akoyev
AI-Generated Summary
This document provides a biographical profile of Soviet radiation biologist Inal Georgiyevich Akoyev. It details his professional background, his involvement in the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project, and his research into the biological effects of electromagnetic radiation.
This document is a biographic brief concerning Inal Georgiyevich Akoyev, a radiation biologist and Deputy Director of the Institute of Biological Physics at the USSR Academy of Sciences in Pushchino. Born on April 17, 1922, in Tashkent, Akoyev has a background in operative surgery and veterinary medicine. Since 1966, he has focused on the biological effects of radiation, specifically nonionizing electromagnetic radiation (NIEMR). The document notes that Akoyev participated in the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project (ASTP) and conducted research on the effects of thyroidin in irradiated animals. In 1976, he attended an International Union of Radio Sciences conference in Amherst, Massachusetts, where he and his colleague, Vladimir Tyazhelov, criticized existing Soviet research methodologies regarding NIEMR. The brief highlights that Akoyev's approach to NIEMR was considered a radical departure from previous Soviet standards, focusing on quantitative analysis. Additionally, the document mentions that Akoyev's research on cosmic ray particles, specifically 'phosphenes,' was identified as a potential cause for light flashes reported by U.S. astronauts.
In 1976 Inal Akceyev was studying cosmic ray particles called phosphenes, which were causing Aeroflot pilots to see flashes of light while flying at night (phenomena shared by U.S. astronauts in space and a possible cause of UFO claims).
