EPS Gero Thomas Medal 2020 and 2021
The EPS Gero Thomas Medal in 2020 is awarded to Professor Jozef T. Devreese
"for his outstanding contributions to a better understanding of
physical phenomena in quantum matter including polarons,
superconductivity and superfluidity, and structures with reduced
dimension and dimensionality. He is also recognised for his dedication
to the European Physical Society and his many achievements, including
creation of the EPS Condensed Matter Division Conference, and the
creation of the EPS Europhysics Prize for Outstanding Achievements in
Condensed Matter Physics."
The EPS Gero Thomas Medal in 2021 is awarded to Professor Luisa Cifarelli
"for her strong involvement in the design, construction and running of
the very large size time-of-flight detector of the ALICE Experiment at
CERN, her important contributions to the development of academic
journals and books, her extraordinary commitment to the academia, other
science organisations and cooperation in the international physics
community, and her outstanding contributions to the European Physical
Society including her initiative for the creation of the EPS Historic
Sites programme."
EPS Fellows 2021
The EPS distinguished Angel Rubio, from Spain, as EPS Fellow "for
his pioneering contributions to computational solid-state physics, in
particular the development of widely used frameworks for the
description of the structure and dynamics of correlated electronic
systems as well as his predictions of material properties at the
nanometer scale and in low dimensions."
The EPS distinguished Lucia Sorba, from Italy, as EPS Fellow "for
her very important contributions to the conception and engineering of
reliable semiconducting nanostructures, permitting the observation and
control of novel hybrid excitations in condensed matter and the
conception of novel semiconductor-based radiation detectors; for her
many years of service to the European Physical Society as chair of the
Semiconductor- and Insulator Section Board of the EPS Condensed Matter
Division."
