Arie Bodek

Arie Bodek (* 1947 ) is an American experimental particle physicist .

Bodek studied at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where he received his bachelor's degree in 1968 and his doctorate with Henry Kendall and Jerome Friedman in 1972. From 1972 to 1974 he was a post-doc assistant at MIT and from 1974 to 1977 Millikan Fellow at Caltech . In 1977 he became Assistant Professor, 1980 Associate Professor and 1987 Professor at the University of Rochester , since 2005 as George E. Pake Professor of Physics. From 1998 to 2007 he was head of the Faculty of Physics and Astronomy. In 1984 he became a Fellow of the American Physical Society .

His dissertation was on the subject of deep inelastic scattering experiments on nucleons at SLAC , with which indications of the existence of quarks were provided in the early 1970s and for which Kendall and Friedman received the Nobel Prize in 1990. He later continued such experiments at the Jefferson Lab (JUPITER program, he was co-speaker there). He dealt with the physics of W bosons , Z bosons , dileptons and the search for the Higgs boson , being involved in the CDF of the Fermilab and the CMS collaboration of the Large Hadron Collider (his group built hadron calorimeters at the CDF and CMS), neutrino physics and neutrino oscillations (CCFR / NuTeV / MINERVA experiments at Fermilab).

He is the author and co-author of over 700 scientific publications. In 2004 he received the Panofsky Prize for his wide-ranging, sustained and insightful contributions to the elucidation of the structure of the nucleon , using a wide variety of experimental methods in a large number of laboratories

In 1979 he became a research fellow of the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation ( Sloan Research Fellow ).
