Announcement of the Winners of the 2006
Accelerator Prizes Awarded by European Physical Society Accelerator Group
Mulhouse, France, Feb 27:
Two of the three European Physical Society
Accelerator Group (EPS-AG)
prizes were decided at the meeting of the 2006 Prize Selection Committee chaired
by Dr. Norbert Angert of GSI on 22 February 2006. These prizes are:
a) An Achievement Prize for outstanding work in the accelerator field with no
age limit. The winner will receive an engraved medal and make an oral
presentation during the Accdelerator Prizes Special Session during EPAC’06.
b) A Prize for an individual in the early part of his or her career, having made
a recent significant, original contribution to the accelerator field. The winner
will receive a framed critificate, and a cash prize of 2000 Euros, and will also
make an oral presentation during the Accelerator Prizes Special Session during
EPAC’06.
Prize a) for an individual for outstanding work in the accelerator field is
awarded to Vladimir Teplyakov, IHEP, Protvino
“For the invention of Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) accelerator structure, in
collaboration with I.M. Kapchinsky. RFQ revolutionized the technique for
accelerating low energy ion beams.”
Prize b) for an individual in the early part of his or her career, having made a
recent significant, original contribution to the accelerator field, is awarded
to Lutz Lilje, DESY, Hamburg
“In recognition of his major role in the development and testing of high
gradient superconducting RF structures, including his original contributions in
the development of fast tuning systems.”
The third prize, for a student registered for a PhD or diploma in accelerator
physics or engineering, or to a trainee accelerator physicist or engineer in the
educational phase of their professional career, for the quality of work and
promise for the future, will be decided at the beginning of the conference.
The prizes will be awarded and the award winners will make oral presentations of
their work during the 10th European Particle Accelerator Conference, EPAC’06, on
Thursday 29 June2006 at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre (EICC),
Edinburgh, Scotland.
