Professor Smith elected Fellow of the American Physical Society

November 16, 2009

Upon the recommendation of the Division of Materials Physics Professor Kevin Smith has been elected Fellow of the American Physical Society “for pioneering contributions to the study of the electronic structure of solids using angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy, soft x-ray emission spectroscopy and resonant inelastic x-ray scattering.” Election to Fellowship in the APS is limited to no more than one half of one percent of the membership and it is quite a recognition of outstanding contributions to physics.
