The Russian scientist Isoef Shmuelovich Shklovskii wrote his finding about Phobos in two magazine articles back in May 1, 1959 and May 31, 1959. Those articles were deemed classified in the United States until October 2005 when I received a translated copy from the Department of the Air Force, Air Intelligence Acency, National Air and Space Intelligence Center (NASIC).
Here are those articles for you to examine and an html I did because the copies were of such poor quality.

More interesting stuff about Phobos:
The First Mars Express Science Conference had four presentations specifically about the research done concerning Phobos. If you examine these presentations, which are in PDF format, you will see it stated that Phobos over the last observed 6 years has an “increased secular rate … MER Rovers see 11-12 km orbital advance … HRSC/SRC [ESA Mars Express] see 11-12 km orbital advance”, Thomas C. Duxbury et. al., JPL California Institute of Technology, 11_Duxbury.pdf.
“Phobos ahead of its predicted orbital position by approx. 1 radius, Bell Duxbury et al., Nature”… “Phobos estimated to be off its normal (JPL ephemeris) orbit by 6s (approx. 12 km) along-track; across-track position errors <1 km”, J. Oberst et al., and the HRSC Co-Investigation Team, 12_Phobos_Oberst.pdf.
In the PDF presentation by John Murray et al., the images of Phobos specifically the leading edge of Phobos does not show the leading edge crater chains to be larger than the trailing edge crater chains so their theory that Phobos flew through Mars debris or flew through ejecta debris is not valid or was not validated. But they did achieve to acquire some better imaging of the leading edge of Phobos.
What you might find even more interesting is the last presentation PDF by Severine Perrier et al., SPICAM Team on the Mars Express. They worked on the UV absorption or reflectance of Phobos and Deimos, the albedo of those two moons. What they found was a repetitive reading in the 220 um, “significant absorption feature around 220 um, similar to interstellar extinction feature … could be caused by the presence on Phobos of organic material … not compatible with the UV silicate signature (around 260 um) … similar to the extinction feature observed in the Interstellar Medium of 217.5 um” To quote them even more “Nature of ISM absorbing material? Possible organic material”.

Therefore, Isoef Shmuelovich Shklovskii’s mathematics and theory of Phobos being an artificial satellite has been further substantiated by the Mars Express (JPL) MRSC/SRC investigative teams conclusions that Phobos is out of predicted position but amazingly Phobos must have some organic material.
