APS Fellows Nominated by GGR 

Filter by Year:


Carlip, Steven [2008]
University of California, Davis
Citation: For contributions to black hole physics and to gravity in 2+1 dimensions.

Oakland University
Citation: For his numerous contributions to a wide variety of topics in relativity and semiclassical gravity.


Poisson, Eric [2008]
University of Guelph
Citation: For important contributions to the theory of gravitational radiation from compact bodies orbiting black holes, to the theory of back-reaction of the emitted radiation on their motions, and to understanding the implications for gravitational-wave detection.
