Anatoliy Hlibovych Zahorodniy (Ukrainian: Анатолій Глібович Загородній; born 29 January 1951) is a Ukrainian theoretical physicist and an organizer of science; an academician of NANU (since 2006), Vice President (2011-2020) and President of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (since October 2020).

[4] In 1978, he defended his Candidate of Sciences dissertation "Fluctuations and emission spectra of bounded plasma" and received the degree of Candidate of Physical and Mathematical Sciences in "Theoretical Physics".In 1990 he defended his dissertation (Dr. of Sci.

[8] He obtained new kinetic equations for the distribution functions of free and bound charged particles in bounded plasma-molecular media, established the explicit form of collision integrals, and investigated the influence of boundary surfaces on the distributions of electrons, ions, and molecules near the medium boundary.

Within the developed approach, he proposed a model of non-Markov diffusion of particles in turbulent plasma.

He found that charging the powders with plasma currents [absent in the source] leads to their decryption, i.e. to the appearance of the Coulomb asymptotics of the effective potential.

Proposed general relations for the dielectric response function of dusty plasma and fluctuation currents.
