M2S-HTSC-VIII 2006 Prize Recipients The John Bardeen Prize is awarded for theoretical work that has provided significant insights on the nature of superconductivity and has led to verifiable predictions. It is sponsored by the Dresdner Bank. Awarded to Alexander Andreev (Moscow), Kazumi Maki (Los Angeles), and Douglas Scalapino (Santa Barbara) for their work on quasiparticles in superconductors: to A. Andreev for the prediction of Andreev scattering, to K. Maki for his work on gapless quasiparticle excitations due to pair-breaking and for elucidating the role of fluctuations and to D. Scalapino for his contributions to life time effects of quasiparticles and how strong correlations affect their properties. The Bernd T. Matthias Prize is awarded in recognition of innovative contributions to the material aspects of superconductivity. Sponsored by the Texas Center for Superconductivity at the University of Houston. Awarded to Frank Steglich (Dresden) for his 1979 discovery of CeCu2Si2 and the associated novel electronic state that has inaugurated an exciting field of heavy fermion physics. The H. Kamerlingh Onnes Prize is awarded for outstanding experiments which illuminate the nature of superconductivity other than materials. Sponsored by Elsevier Science, publisher of PHYSICA C Superconductivity and Applications. Awarded to N. Phuan Ong (Princeton), Hidenori Takagi (Tokyo), and Shin-ichi Uchida (Tokyo) for pioneering and seminal transport experiments which illuminated the unconventional nature of the metallic state of high temperature superconducting cuprates. The Nicholas Kurti European Science Prize is named after Professor Nicholas Kurti who is known for his distinguished work in ultra-low temperature physics at the Clarendon Laboratory, Oxford University. The award is intended to recognise and promote outstanding achievements of young scientists in the field of physical sciences research, to support their career development. The prize is sponsored by Oxford Instruments. Awarded to Andreas Wallraff (Zu¨rich) for his pioneering work on quantum information processing using superconducting circuits.
