C.W. Francis Everitt [2007]
Stanford University
Citation: For his pioneering role as scientist, visionary, and leader in the development and successful operation of Gravity Probe B, a mission to measure the general relativistic dragging of inertial frames by the rotating Earth.
Nominated by: DGRAV
Giorgio Gratta [2007]
Stanford University
Citation: For leadership and vision in the development of experiments to probe neutrino phenomena, including lepton mixing, geoneutrinos and neutrinoless double-beta decay.
Nominated by: DPF
Martin Greven [2007]
Stanford University
Citation: For establishing a stellar record in growth and perfection of high quality crystals of oxide superconductors, which have permitted both his inelastic neutron and X-ray scattering experiments, and a host of other experiments (STM, ARPES, and optical measurements) by his collaborators which led to a number of important advances in the field.
Nominated by: DMP
Joanne Hewett [2007]
Stanford University
Citation: For her contributions to our understanding of constraints on and searches for physics beyond the Standard Model, and service to the particle physics community leading studies of future experiments.
Nominated by: DPF
John Turneaure [2007]
Stanford University
Citation: For pioneering the development of ultrahigh-Q superconducting microwave cavities and their application to fundamental physics experiments, and for development of the Gravity Probe B science instrument to test General Relativity.
Nominated by: GPMFC
William Wisniewski [2007]
Stanford University
Citation: For outstanding contributions and leadership in the design, construction and operation of the BABAR detector, that have enabled the accumulation of a unique data sample for addressing precision physics in the heavy flavor sector.
Nominated by: DPF
Yoshihisa Yamamoto [2007]
Stanford University
Citation: For field opening contributions to quantum optics and mesoscopic physics.
Nominated by: DAMOP
