Howard Haber
Howard Eli Haber (born February 3, 1952 in Brooklyn , New York ) is an American physicist who deals with theoretical elementary particle physics.
Howard Haber graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) with a bachelor's degree and master's degree in 1973 and received his doctorate in 1978 from the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor . As a postdoctoral fellow he was at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (until 1980), the University of Pennsylvania and the University of California, Santa Cruz , where he was assistant professor and from 1990 professor. From 1982 he was also a visiting scientist at SLAC .
In 1993 he became a Fellow of the American Physical Society and in 1985 he received the DOE's Outstanding Junior Investigator Award . In 2009 he received the Humboldt Research Award , with which he was at the University of Bonn .
He is concerned with the physics of the Higgs boson (and extended models beyond the Standard Model, such as the low-energy sector of supersymmetry ), which he considers fundamental for the study of physics beyond the Standard Model .
In 2017 he received the Sakurai Prize for fundamental contributions to the properties, reactions and signatures of the Higgs boson (laudation).
