David J. Wineland was awarded the 2012 Nobel Prize in Physics jointly with which French physicist known for a study of the particle of light?
David J. Wineland David Jeffrey Wineland (born February 24, 1944) is an American Nobel-laureate physicist at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) physics laboratory. His work has included advances in optics, specifically laser cooling trapped ions and using ions for quantum computing operations. He was awarded the 2012 Nobel Prize in Physics, jointly with Serge Haroche, for "ground-breaking experimental methods that enable measuring and manipulation of individual quantum systems."
Leonid Frankfurt Leonid Frankfurt from the Tel Aviv University, was awarded the status of Fellow in the American Physical Society, after they were nominated by their Division of Nuclear Physics in 2007, for "seminal contributions to high energy and high momentum transfer probes of hadrons and nuclei including: inventing the additive quark model, deriving the light front approach to nuclei, showing how to observe nucleon-nucleon corrections, and discovery of high-energy color transparency."
