Abstract: The new electronic database developed by the authors and titled “Astronomers — Ukraine” is described as a source of the main biographical data on astronomers of Ukraine from the 15th century till the beginning of the 21st century. The database is an upgrading component of the Ukrainian Virtual Observatory portal and contains the main biobibliographical data and papers concerning astronomers of Ukraine as well as links to their publications. The existed biographical sources about astronomers in the world are briefly discussed. A list of the principal publications about astronomers of Ukraine is given. |
