World Year of Physics 2005
"One thing I have learned in a long life: that all our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike—and yet it is the most precious thing we have."
A. Einstein, 1955

Newly Elected APS/DPB Fellows

At the November 2004 APS Council Meeting, the following list of 2005 DPB Fellows was approved:

David H. Rice (Cornell)—For his key role in conception and implementation of pioneering accelerator physics innovations in electron-positron colliders and storage rings.

Leonid Rivkin (PSI)—For his scientific contribution and technical leadership role in the design and construction of accelerators for high energy physics and synchrotron light sources, and for furthering our understanding of beam instabilities.

Michael James Syphers (Fermilab)—For his contributions to non-linear beam dynamics and beam optics design, and to education in accelerator physics.

Jonathan Syrkin Wurtele (University of California-Berkeley)—For his many theoretical contributions to free electron lasers, laser-plasma acceleration, laser-plasma interactions, and muon beam manipulations.

Victor A. Yarba (Fermilab)—For his technical leadership of frontier accelerator projects in Russia and the US and for fostering international collaborations.

Li-Hua Yu (BNL)—For creative contributions to the theory of self-amplified spontaneous emissions and high-gain harmonic-generation, and the experimental demonstration of the high-gain harmonic-generation free-electron laser.

Frank Zimmermann (CERN)—For many theoretical and experimental contributions to accelerator physics including the study of beam-ion and beam-electron cloud interactions, collective instabilities, nonlinear optics, and beam measurements.
