Another Petrov, and... the Phase Anomaly or Dichotomy of Venus

There must have been (or still is) a certain V. N. Petrov, who, together with N. N. Michelson, investigated certain phase anomalies of planet Venus, and wrote an article about this subject, see: Sky and Telescope, August 1958. Source: page 106 of Mysterious Universe, a handbook of astronomical anomalies (William R. Corliss, The Sourcebook Project, 1979); Minick Rushton: On the Variation of the Phase of Venus from Theory (Strolling Astronomer, 1961).
