The American Physical Society (APS) has announced that a Neil Ashcroft Early Career Award for Studies of Matter at Extreme High Pressure Conditions will be conferred annually, starting from 2023.
A Jamieson Award of 2023 for an outstanding achievement in the field of high pressure research by a young scientist shall be awarded by the Association at the joint AIRAPT/EHPRG Conference in Edinburgh, UK, July 23-28, 2023. The recipient will be invited to give an in-person talk at this Conference.
John Calhoun Jamieson (1924-1983) was Professor of Geophysics at the University of Chicago. Most of his research used static high pressures. However, he also performed shock experiments at Los Alamos and SRI International.
