Ian Hinchliffe

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ian Hinchliffe (* 1952 in Dewsbury ) is a British physicist.

Hinchliffe studied at Oxford University , where he received his bachelor's degree in 1974 and his doctorate in 1977 at St. John's College in theoretical elementary particle physics with Christopher Llewelyn Smith . He has been at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) since 1983 , where he headed the theoretical physics group from 1992 to 1999.

Since 1996 he has been with the ATLAS group of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN . From 2006 to 2007 he was the group's physics coordinator and he headed the Atlas group at the LBNL. Hinchliffe is primarily concerned with experimental tests of the standard model on large accelerators in the T eV range.

In 2011, he and Estia Eichten , Kenneth Lane and Chris Quigg received the Sakurai Prize for their early review article on the prospects of discovering new physics at TeV accelerators ( Supercollider Physics , Reviews of Modern Physics 1984), at which time they made plans for the 1993 in the United States had their Superconducting Super Collider failed due to funding issues .

Hinchliffe is a Fellow of the American Physical Society .

He is married to Berkeley physics professor Marjorie Shapiro.
