Anatoly Alexandrovich Maslov is a Russian physicist, professor of Aerohydrodynamics Department at the Novosibirsk State Technical University, specialist in the field of laminar-turbulent transition.[1]
In 1973, Anatoly Maslov defended his Ph.D. thesis "Stability of a compressible boundary layer over a cooled surface"; in 1988, he defended his doctoral dissertation "The onset of turbulence in supersonic boundary layers".[1] In the same year, the scientist became the head of Laboratory No.13 of Physical Problems of Control of Gas-Dynamic Flows at the Khristianovich Institute of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics.[2] Thanks to the skills of experimental work and numerical simulation in supersonic aerodynamics, as well as experience in large aerodynamic installations, he significantly intensified the scientific activity of the laboratory.[2]
On June 28, 2022, Anatoly Maslov was arrested on suspicion of state treason. He was taken by plane to Moscow and placed in the Lefortovo pre-trial detention center. A few days later, another Novosibirsk scientist Dmitry Kolker was also arrested on suspicion of state treason.[3]
