During World War II, he worked at the M.I.T. Radiation Lab. He earned his PhD under I. I. Rabi at Columbia University in 1950.[4] Hughes was notable for his research of muons[5] which showed the existence of previously undetected matter.[1] He was also noted for research that showed that protons have gluons and quarks.[1] Hughes was a member of the National Academy of Sciences,[2][3] Sterling Professor at Yale University,[1][3] and a recipient of Rumford Prize,[2] and a recipient of Davisson-Germer Prize in Atomic Physics and the Tom W. Bonner Prize in Nuclear Physics, both from the American Physical Society.[3] See also
