Bravo! Prof. Hong Guo, CAP-CRM Prize in Theoretical and Mathematical Physics; Prof. Guy Moore, CAP Herzberg Medal

Published: 8 April 2009

Kudos to Professor Hong Guo, James 成人VR视频 Chair and Professor of Physics in the Physics Department! He has been selected as the recipient of the 2009 CAP-CRM Prize in Theoretical and Mathematical Physics, 鈥渇or his pioneering work on the ab initio theory of transport in nanoscale systems, including the theory of circuits in which current flows through molecules.鈥 The prize, awarded annually by the Canadian Association of Physicists (CAP) and the Centre de recherches math茅matiques (CRM), is awarded in recognition of exceptional achievements in theoretical and mathematical physics. Prof. Guo has built a unique research program focusing on two main areas: electronic transport theory in mesoscopic and nanoscopic systems and materials physics of nanotechnology. The impact of his work is international with not only scientific value but also direct relevance to practical application.

Congratulations as well to Professor Guy Moore, also of the Physics Department, who will receive the 2009 Herzberg Medal from the Canadian Association of Physicists 鈥渇or the broad impact of his contributions to theoretical particle physics, such as the bulk and collective behaviour of quantum chromodynamics under extreme conditions of temperature and density.鈥 The CAP Herzberg Medal is awarded annually for outstanding achievement in any field of research by a physicist under the age of 40.聽 Prof. Moore is a theoretical particle and nuclear physicist who conducts research on the frontiers of particle physics (research into the basic elements of matter and the forces acting on them) and what went on very early in the history of the universe. He also conducts research in cosmology on the origin of matter in the Universe. Prof. Moore is the co-author, along with Cliff Burgess, of The Standard Model: A Primer (2007) published by Cambridge University Press.

Professors Guo and Moore will receive their prizes at the CAP Congress banquet to be held in Moncton on June 9, 2009.
