Since 2003, the Einstein Prize is a biennial prize awarded by the American Physical Society. The recipients are chosen for their outstanding accomplishments in the field of gravitational physics. The prize is named after Albert Einstein (1879–1955), who authored the of special and general theories of relativity. The prize was established by the Topical Group on Gravitation at the beginning of 1999. As of 2013, the prize is valued at $10,000.[1] The 2005 prize for Bryce DeWitt was announced shortly before his death, and awarded posthumously.[2]

Recipients

Year Recipient(s) Citation Ref
2003 John A. Wheeler For pioneering investigations in general relativity, including gravitational radiation, quantum gravity, black holes, space time singularities, and symmetries in Einstein's equations, and for leadership and inspiration to generations of researchers in general relativity. [3]
[4]
Peter G. Bergmann
2005 Bryce DeWitt For a broad range of original contributions to gravitational physics, especially in quantum gravity, gauge field theories, radiation reaction in curved spacetime, and numerical relativity; and for inspiring a generation of students. [5]
2007 Rainer Weiss For fundamental contributions to the development of gravitational wave detectors based on optical interferometry, leading to the successful operation of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory. [6]
[7]
Ronald Drever
2009 James Hartle For a broad range of fundamental contributions to relativistic stars, quantum fields in curved spacetime, and especially quantum cosmology. [8]
2011 Ezra Ted Newman For outstanding contributions to theoretical relativity, including the Newman–Penrose formalism, Kerr–Newman solution, Heaven, and null foliation theory. For his intellectual passion, generosity and honesty, which have inspired and represented a model for generations of relativists. [9]
2013 Irwin I. Shapiro For his contributions to experimental Solar System tests of relativistic theories of gravity, and in particular for proposing and measuring the Shapiro time delay effect. [10]
2015 Jacob Bekenstein For his ground-breaking work on black hole entropy, which launched the field of black hole thermodynamics and transformed the long effort to unify quantum mechanics and gravitation. [11]
2017 Robert M. Wald For fundamental contributions to classical and semiclassical gravity studies, in particular, the discovery of the general formula for black hole entropy, and for developing a rigorous formulation of quantum field theory in curved spacetime. [12]
2019 Abhay Ashtekar For numerous and seminal contributions to general relativity, including the theory of black holes, canonical quantum gravity, and quantum cosmology. [13]

Anglo-Saxon warfare

Military tactics A modern recreation of a 7th-century Anglo-Saxon warrior The period of Anglo-Saxon warfare spans the 5th century AD to the 11th in Anglo-Saxon England. Its technology and tactics resemble those of other European cultural areas of the Early Medieval Period, although the Anglo-Saxons, unlike the Continental Germanic tribes such as the Franks and the Goths, do not appear to have regularly fought on horseback.[1] Evidence Although much archaeological evidence for Anglo-Sa...

Constitutional conventions of the United Kingdom

The United Kingdom has an uncodified constitution. The constitution consists of legislation, common law, Crown prerogative and constitutional conventions. Conventions may be written or unwritten. They are principles of behaviour which are not legally enforceable, but form part of the constitution by being enforced on a political, professional or personal level. Written conventions can be found in the Ministerial Code, Cabinet Manual, Guide to Judicial Conduct, Erskine May and even legislatio...
