Gart Westerhout (15 June 1927 – 14 October 2012) was a Dutch-American astronomer. Well before completing his university studies at Leiden, he had already become well-established internationally as a radio astronomer in the Netherlands, specializing in studies of radio sources and the Milky Way Galaxy based on observations of radio continuum emissions and 21-cm spectral line radiation that originates in interstellar hydrogen. He emigrated to the United States, became a naturalized citizen, and held a number of important scientific and management positions in academic and government institutions.

  • Gart Westerhout (* 15. Juni 1927 in Den Haag, Niederlande; † 14. Oktober 2012 in Catonsville, USA) war ein niederländischer Astronom. Noch bevor Westerhout seine Studien an der Universität Leiden absolvierte, war er bereits international ein anerkannter Radioastronom, der sich auf Radioquellen in der Milchstraße spezialisierte, die im Bereich der HI-Linie bei 21 cm strahlen. Er emigrierte in die USA und hatte wichtige wissenschaftliche Stellungen in Akademien und Instituten von Bundesbehörden inne. 1950 erhielt er den Cand. für Physik und Astronomie, den Drs. 1954 und den Ph.D. 1958.
