The following prizes, created to globally recognize outstanding contributions in the field of superconductivity, will be awarded at the Opening Session of the M2S-HTSC-VI meeting in Houston. In addition, a lecture series is being created within the M2S-HTSC-VI conference venue in honor of each winner. Each winner will be invited to present a special lecture.
Bernd T. Matthias Prize for superconducting
materials
The Matthias Prize is awarded for awarded in recognition of innovative
contributions to the material aspects of superconductivity. Sponsored
by the Texas Center for Superconductivity at the University of
Houston.
Committee Chair: C.W. Chu
John Bardeen Prize for superconductivity
theory
The Bardeen Prize is awarded for theoretical work which has provided
significant insights on the nature of superconductivity and has
led to verifiable predictions. Sponsored by Friends of Bardeen.
Interim Committee Chair: D. Scalapino
The H. Kamerlingh Onnes Prize for
superconductivity experiments
The Onnes Prize is awarded for outstanding experiments which illuminate
the nature of superconductivity other than materials. Sponsored
by Elsevier, Publisher of Physica C-Superconductivity and its
Applications.
Committee Chair: P. Kes
