APS Announces Spring 2013 Prize and Award Recipients

Thirty-nine prizes and awards will be presented during special sessions at three spring meetings of the Society: the 2013 March Meeting, March 18-22, in Baltimore, MD, the 2013 April Meeting, April 13-16, in Denver, CO, and the 2013 Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics Meeting, June 3-7, in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. Citations and biographical information for each recipient follow. The Apker Award recipients appeared in the December 2012 issue of APS News (http://www.aps.org/programs/ honors/awards/apker.cfm). Additional biographical information and appropriate web links can be found at the APS web site (http://www.aps.org/programs/honors/index.cfm). Nominations for most of next year’s prizes and awards are now being accepted. For details, see pages 8 of this insert. 2013 Prizes, Awards and Dissertations
