For more than 30 years, the U.S. Particle Accelerator School Prize for 
Achievement in Accelerator Physics and Technology has honored 
individuals by recognizing their outstanding achievements over the full 
range of accelerator physics and technology.  Two prizes are awarded 
every two years on a competitive basis; one prize will be awarded to a 
young scientist under 45 years of age.

Selection criteria heavily considered: 1) intrinsic scientific/technical 
quality and importance to the field;  2) realization of concepts in 
working accelerators - leadership and vision in machine building, 
putting concepts into practice;  3) level of impact – degree to which 
concepts have led to the production of more or better science or has the 
potential for doing so in the future; 4) other factors, especially 
teaching/mentorship/stimulation of young scientists and engineers. The 
selection will be made without bias to race, sex, and/or nationality.

Nominations should include the name, institution and CV of the nominee; 
description of accomplishment with supporting documents and suggested 
citation; and up to three letters of support in addition to the 
nominating letter.  Letters may have multiple signatures. *The deadline 
for 2017 prize nominations is August 1, 2016.* Please submit nominations to:
