[Cuga] American Physical Society Dissertation Award in Hadronic Physics - A message from Sebastian Kuhn

[Lorelei Chopard]

The GHP Executive Committee would like to remind the membership that the 
biennial call for nominations for the:

American Physical Society Dissertation Award in Hadronic Physics

is open. Nominations are accepted until 1 October 2014 for students who 
have graduated in the last two years so please encourage your 
outstanding recent graduates to apply.

The award, $1000 and a travel allowance of up to $1500 to attend the 
biennial GHP meeting, will be presented at the April 2015 GHP Meeting in 
Baltimore, MD.  Note that if the student has been awarded an APS 
dissertation award previously, they are ineligible for the GHP 
Dissertation Award.

Nominations should be sent to: Matthias Burkardt (burkardt at nmsu.edu 
<mailto:burkardt at nmsu.edu>), Chair of GHP and Chair of the Dissertation 
Award Committee, and Ramona Vogt (rlvogt at lbl.gov 
<mailto:rlvogt at lbl.gov>), Member of the Dissertation Award Committee.

Other committee members are Christine Aidala (Ann Arbor), Ian Cloet 
(ANL), Susan Schadmand (FZ-Juelich) and Ramona Vogt (LLNL/UC Davis). 
  Contact the executive committee, ghpexec at anl.gov 
<mailto:ghpexec at anl.gov>, for further information. If you know of a 
deserving student who has graduated or will graduate in the two-year 
period preceding the nomination deadline, please see: 
http://www.aps.org/programs/honors/dissertation/hadronic.cfm for more 
details about eligibility and the contents of the nomination package. 
The student should also be a GHP member at the time of nomination: it's 
free for students to join.

The nominations will be evaluated based on: the quality of the written 
dissertation (40%), the contribution of the student to the research 
(30%), the impact of the work (15%), and the broader involvement of the 
student in the community (15%).

N.B. The membership of APS is diverse and global, so Prize and Award 
winners should reflect that diversity. Nominations of women, members of 
underrepresented minority groups, and scientists from outside the United 
States are especially encouraged.

[This email is circulated by Craig Roberts on behalf of the Executive of 
the American Physical Society's Topical Group on Hadron Physics. Email 
to ghpexec at anl.gov <mailto:ghpexec at anl.gov> will reach all members of 
the Executive Committee.]
