“Jennifer Anne Thomas”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

She earned a Bachelor of Science degree with honours from Bedford College, University of London, in 1981. She received her PhD in particle physics from the University of Oxford in 1983 for research on semi-leptonic decays of heavy quarks supervised by Michael G. Bowler.^[2]^[3]

Career and research

Thomas held a postdoctoral research positions at Imperial College and Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY) in Hamburg from 1985 to 1985. She was a CERN fellow from 1985 to 1989 and worked there on the Time Projection Digitizer (TPC) for the ALEPH experiment. She was a Wissenschaflicher Angestellter at the Max Planck Institute for Physics in Munich from 1989 to 1991. She then became a staff scientist at the Superconducting Super Collider Laboratory in Dallas, Texas. In 1994, she returned to Oxford as a research officer on the MINOS proposed experiment. She brought that experiment to University College London in 1997.^[3] {{As of|2017}} her work investigates on the physics of neutrinos, she is the co-spokesperson for the MINOS experiment and is a member of the NEMO-III and SuperNEMO experiments.^[4]^[5]

Awards and honours

Thomas was awarded a Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire in the 2011 Birthday Honours.^[6] She was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS) in 2017.^[7] She is also a Fellow of the Institute of Physics and the American Physical Society.^[3] She was the winner of the 2018 Institute of Physics Michael Faraday medal and prize.^[8]
