Russian chess composer and International Master of the FIDE (Avenir Nikolayevich Popandopulo)

About 100 of his problems can be found in R.Kofman's "Избранные композиции" (1985) together with works by Grin, Dombrovskis, Kofman and Kuznetsov. A nice obituary by Russian metal scientists in "Metal Science and Heat Treatment" (August 1988, Volume 30, Issue 8, p 637) had been made available for free on resources.metapress.com but is now on Springer.com.
Popandopulo's name is associated with a battery form in which a battery fires twice with similar but different battery front stones.
