AI-Generated Summary
This document provides a biographical profile of Soviet radiation biologist Inal Georgiyevich Akoyev. It details his professional background, his research on nonionizing electromagnetic radiation, and his involvement in the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project.
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. 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 has been involved in space-related research, including studies on the effects of thyroidin in erythropoiesis in irradiated animals and research related to the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project (ASTP). During the ASTP, Akoyev studied cosmic ray particles known as phosphenes, which were identified as a potential cause of flashes of light reported by U.S. astronauts. In October 1976, Akoyev attended a conference in Amherst, Massachusetts, where he and his colleague, Vladimir Tyazhelov, criticized existing Soviet research on NIEMR, advocating for a more quantitative approach. The document highlights that Akoyev's involvement in NIEMR research dates back to at least 1972.
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).
