Vladimir Aleksandrovich Albitzky (Template:Langx) (16 June 1891 – 15 June 1952) was a Soviet/Russian astronomer and discoverer of minor planets.[2] In modern English transliteration, his surname would be given as Al'bitskii or Al'bitsky. In the literature, he is sometimes referred to as W. A. Albizkij, however his surname usually appears in the literature as "Albitzky". His asteroid discoveries are credited as "V. Albitskij".
He came to the Simeiz Observatory (Симеиз) in Crimea in 1922, working with G. A. Shajn and G. N. Neujmin, and became head of the observatory in 1934.[2] The Minor Planet Center credits him with the discovery of 10 asteroids during 1923–1925.[1]
The Eunomia asteroid 1783 Albitskij, discovered by astronomer Grigory Neujmin at Simeiz Observatory in 1935, was named in his honor.[2]
