With Sergei Kopeikin and George Kaplan, Michael Efroimsky co-authored a book on the relativistic celestial mechanics of the Solar System. With Benoit Noyelles, Julien Frouard and Valeri V. Makarov, Michael Efroimsky co-authored a theory explaining the origin of the present state of rotation of the planet Mercury, a so-called 3:2 spin-orbit resonance. With Amirhossein Bagheri, Amir Khan, and other colleagues, Michael Efroimsky co-authored a theory explaining the origin and orbital evolution of Phobos and Deimos, the satellites of Mars. According to this theory, Phobos and Deimos are remnants of a common progenitor, a larger protomoon destroyed by a collision with a planetesimal. Michael Efroimsky also published translations from classical Russian poetry. (en)
