Zarir Jurjani
Abu Sa'id Zarir Jurjani[1] (Persian: ابوسعید ضریر جرجانی) (d. 845-6) was a Persian mathematician and astronomer. Not much is known about his life. George Sarton considers him a pupil of Ibn al-A'rabi, but Carl Brockelmann rejects this opinion.
Works
Two of his works are extant:
- Masa'il Hindisia (a manuscript is available in Cairo)
- Istikhraj khat nisf al-nahar min kitab analima wa al-borhan alayh (available in Cairo, translated by Carl Schoy)
