Dr. Cordula Tollmien Sofja Kowalewskaja (Polyakhova) |
 | | Sofia Kovalevskaya is honoured by names of lunar crater and minor planet (asteroid): minor planet (NMP)"1859 Kovalevskaya" discovered in 1972, September, 4th, in Nautchny-Observatory in Crimea (former USSR), and preliminary numbered as 1972 RS2, is named by its discoverer L.V. Zhuravleva after this famous russian woman. |
| | Kovalevskaya found a third completely integrable case, in which the moments of inertia of the body are related by a particular way and when integration is done by means of hyperelliptic functions of time. |
| | Kovalevskaya studies Laplace's results in planetary rings stability and finds out that his conclusion about the elliptic shape of a rotating thorus-like ring cross-section is not enough exact and can be consider as the first order solution only. |
