2015 EPS HEPP prizewinners announced

The High Energy and Particle Physics (HEPP) Division of the European Physical Society (EPS) has announced the winners of its 2015 prizes

The High Energy and Particle Physics (HEPP) Division of the European Physical Society (EPS) has announced the winners of its 2015 prizes. The awards recognise the efforts of young people in the field as well as those who have made many well-established contributions.

Three of the young prize-winners are working at CERN: Jan Fiete Grosse-Oetringhaus (ALICE), Giovanni Petrucciani (CMS) and Kate Shaw (ATLAS). Guido Altarelli, for many years a well known senior theoretician at CERN, shares the prestigious High Energy and Particle Physics Prize for 2015 “for his work on developing a probabilistic field-theory framework for the dynamics of quarks and gluons”.

The prizes will be awarded at the Europhysics Conference on High-Energy Physics (EPS-HEP 2015) which will take place in Vienna, Austria, on 22−29 July.
