Erik Michailowitsch Galimow ( Russian Эрик Михайлович Галимов ; born July 29, 1936 in Vladivostok ) is a Tatar - Russian geochemist .

Life

Galimow, son of a Tatar father, studied geology , geochemistry and geophysics at the Moscow Gubkin Institute for Petroleum Chemistry (MINCh) with a degree in 1959. He then stayed at this university as a research assistant at the chair for applied geophysics. In 1965 he received his doctorate with the candidate dissertation application of mass spectroscopy for the isotope investigation of carbon in carbonates as a candidate in the geological and mineralogical sciences . In 1966 he became head of the mass spectroscopy laboratory at MINCh (until 1976). In 1970 he received his doctorate in geochemistry of stable carbon isotopes with a doctoral thesis in geological and mineralogical sciences .

Since 1973 Galimow headed the Laboratory for Carbon Geochemistry of the Institute for Geochemistry and Analytical Chemistry (GEOChI, later Vernadski Institute for Geochemistry and Analytical Chemistry) of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR (AN-SSSR) . In 1982 he was appointed professor. In 1991 he became a corresponding member of the AN-SSSR. In 1993 he became director of GEOChi. The Federal Agency of Scientific Organizations , which manages the property of the now Russian Academy of Sciences (RAN), fired Galimov in 2015 after criticizing the agency's lack of transparency and bureaucracy.

Galimow's geochemical isotope studies of organic matter , his mathematical modeling of precipitation basins and his work on the formation of diamonds , the formation and chemical evolution of the earth and the formation of the moon were fundamental . In 1990 he founded and then headed the Global Carbon Cycles Science School " Earth's mantle - Earth's crust - Ocean - Earth's atmosphere " . He initiated and directed the program for the study of the moon and the emission of substances from Phobos . 1975–1980, together with AL Butschatschenko , JN Molin , RS Sagdajew and others , he investigated the effects of magnetic fields on the course of chemical reactions and discovered the magnetic isotope effect in 1975.

In 1994 Galimow became a full member of the RAN in the Department of Geology, Geophysics, Geochemistry and Mining Sciences . He was a member of the RAN Presidium (2002–2013), Chairman of the Meteorite Committee , Chairman of the Scientific Council on Geochemistry, member of the Oceanography Commission and member of the Office of the RAN Space Council . 2000–2004 he was President of the International Association of GeoChemistry . The Lomonosov University in Moscow awarded him an honorary professorship . He is a member of the Academy for Mining Sciences and a foreign member of the Academy of Sciences and Literature Mainz and a member of the local Commission for Earth Science Research (1998). He is an honorary member of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Bashkortostan . At the 2nd International Conference on Geology (April 21-22, 2016 in Dubai ) he gave the lecture The origin of hydrocarbon accumulation in Precambrian of the Eastern Siberia .

Galimow was editor-in-chief of the Russian journal Geochemie and co-editor of the international journals Astrobiology , Chemical Geology and Isotopes in Health and Environmental Studies .
