History

The ASE was published in 1974-1987, one volume per year.[3] The chairman of the editorial board of the ASE was Viktor Ambartsumian,[1] the chief editors were Viktor Ambartsumian (volume 1), Abel Simonyan [hy] (volumes 2-4) and Makich Arzumanyan [hy] (volumes 5-13). 7200 authors participated in the creation of the ASE. It was printed by the Hakob Megapart Printing House [hy].[3]

In 2011, the state non-profit Armenian Encyclopedia Publishing House, which owns the rights to the ASE, allowed its distribution under the Creative Commons BY-SA 3.0 free license.[5][6]
