Awards

Michael Mitch, Leader of the Dosimetry Group of the Radiation Physics Division, has been elected as a Fellow of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM). A member of the AAPM since 2000, Mitch represents NIST on several committees...

For creating and disseminating quantum-based superconducting voltage standards that form the basis for worldwide precision voltage measurements.

For her outstanding contributions in toroidal Bose-Einstein condensates and its application to “atomtronic” circuits.

For exceptional contributions to vacuum science and for developing new and revolutionary vacuum standards and methods through promoting excellence in vacuum measurement as well as being a mentor to early career scientists and engineers.

NIST has a long-standing program in quantum information science that includes creating coherence in quantum dots — a type of nanostructure — that can lead to everything from single photon sources to the core components of quantum computer — a so...

Paul D. Hale has been named an IEEE Fellow for contributions to the metrology of high-speed electronic and optoelectronic devices.

Michael Boss received the FLC Tech Transfer Award for creating MRI calibration standards that have been adopted in multi-site clinical trials in the US and Europe to study the effects of traumatic brain injury.

UMD researchers have developed a single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) detection system that is so sensitive that it detects photons that arrive at times well before a readout gate is applied, hence increasing the system’s detection duty cycle. This...

For pioneering contributions to the study of superfluidity in atomic-gas Bose-Einstein condensates using ring-shaped condensates.

For a precision measurement of the Newtonian constant of Gravitation G and a precision measurement of the Planck constant h.
