Natalia Anatolievna (Natasha) Artemieva (Russian: Артемьева Наталия Анатольевна, born 1959) is a Russian planetary scientist whose research involves the computer simulation of meteor impacts and the craters formed by them, especially for planets such as the Earth, Mars, and Jupiter where atmospheric effects play a significant role in the impact behavior. This line of research has also led her to the study of the Cretaceous–Paleogene boundary and the formation of suevite in meteor impacts.[1] She is a senior researcher in the Institute of Geosphere Dynamics in Russia,[2] and a senior researcher at the Planetary Science Institute in Arizona, US.[3]
