Richard Keith Ellis
Richard Keith Ellis (born November 17, 1949 ) is a British theoretical elementary particle physicist .
Ellis studied at Oxford University , where he received his master's degree in 1971 and his doctorate in 1974. He then served on the Imperial College in London the Massachusetts Institute of Technology , the Caltech , at CERN and the University of Rome . From 1984 he was at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab), where he headed the theory department from 1993 to 2004. Since 2015 he has been Professor of Physics at Durham University , where he is Director of the Institute for Particle Physics Phenomenology .
Ellis is a leading authority on perturbation quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and its application in high energy physics experiments.
Since 1988 he has been a Fellow of the American Physical Society . In 2009 he became a Fellow of the Royal Society and received the Sakurai Prize together with Davison E. Soper and John C. Collins . For 2019 Ellis was awarded the Dirac Medal of the Institute of Physics (IOP).
