IBA Europhysics Prize nominations open
The board of the EPS Nuclear Physics Division has announced calls for nominations are now open for the 2013 IBA-Europhysics prize, sponsored by IBA Group. The award will be made to one or several individuals for outstanding contributions to Applied Nuclear Science and Nuclear Methods and Nuclear Researches in Medicine.
The IBA prize was first awarded in 2004. Last year, Elisabetta Boaretto received the prize in recognition of her significant contribution to the development of precise quality controlled radiocarbon dating and the application of accelerator mass spectrometry techniques to the field of archaeology.
The Prize consists of a Diploma of the European Physical Society and €5000 donated by IBA.
Nominations should be accompanied by the curriculum vitae of the nominee(s) and a list of major publications. Letters of support from authorities in the field are also requested. Complete nominations should be sent to the chairman of IBA Prize Selection Committee, I.J.D. MacGregor.
The deadline for the submission of nominations is 25 January 2013.
More information about the prize is available on the EPS Nuclear division website.
