Льюис Свифт (англ. Lewis A. Swift, 29 февраля 1820[1][2], Кларксон[вд], Нью-Йорк — 5 января 1913[1][2], Марафон[вд], Нью-Йорк) — американский астроном.

Биография

Свифт обнаружил несколько комет, например, короткопериодическую комету Свифта-Таттля, а также более 1000 объектов Нового общего каталога.

Свифт не имел университетского образования.

Признание

Свифт был удостоен степени доктора философии Рочестерского университета[3].

Свифт получил больше медалей, чем любой другой астроном своего времени, включая три золотые медали из Австрийской академии наук в Вене[4], четыре бронзовые медали от астрономического общества Тихого океана и медаль Лапласа от Société astronomique de France (французского астрономического общества).

В 1897 году он был первым человеком, награждённым медалью Джексона-Гвилта Королевского астрономического общества.

Астероид 5035 Свифт назван в его честь, как и лунный кратер Свифт.
