- Michael Efroimsky (Russian: Михаил Эфроимский) is an American astronomer of Russian origin.His research interests are in celestial mechanics and relativity. He is working as a Research Scientist at the US Naval Observatory in Washington DC. Michael Efroimsky is a member of the International Astronomical Union and the American Astronomical Society (AAS). In 2008 - 2009, he served as the Chair of the Division on Dynamical Astronomy of the AAS. 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)
