Inaugurated in 2008, the prize is awarded annually in recognition of the pioneering development or exploitation of European astronomical instrumentation, or major discoveries based largely on such instruments. [1] Tycho Brahe Prize laureates The following persons have received the Tycho Brahe Prize:[2] Year | Name | Contribution |
---|
2008 | Göran Scharmer | He is one of the leading solar physicists with a remarkable track record in advancing ground-based solar observations.[3] | 2009 | Françoise Combes | She has done fundamental work in the area of dynamics of galaxies, on the interstellar medium in extragalactic systems, molecular absorption lines in the intergalactic medium, and on Dark Matter in the Universe.[4] | 2010 | Raymond Wilson | His profound theoretical and practical knowledge of optics and his vision for achieving optical perfection led him to the concept of Active Optics which changed the world of large telescopes overnight: No major telescope will any longer be built without Active Optics.[5] | 2011 | Michael Perryman | for his crucial role in the fostering of high precision, global stellar astrometry from space, in particular the development of the Hipparcos mission.[6] | 2012 | Reinhard Genzel | in recognition of his outstanding contributions to European near-infrared astronomy, through the development of sophisticated instrumentation, and for ground-breaking work in galactic and extra-galactic astronomy leading to the best evidence to date for the existence of black holes.[7] | 2013 | Massimo Tarenghi | in recognition of his central role in the development of the European Southern Observatory facilities that have resulted in Europe's world-leading role in ground-based astronomy.[8] | 2014 | Antoine Labeyrie | in recognition of his innovative concepts and inventions now widely used in modern optical imaging at high angular resolution | 2015 | Michel Mayor | in recognition of the development of instrumentation, which led to his discovery of the first extra-solar planet orbiting a solar-type star and to his leading role in this domain during the last twenty years | 2016 | Joachim Trümper | in recognition of his visionary development of X-ray instrumentation, from balloon experiments and the discovery of cyclotron lines probing the magnetic field of neutron stars to his leadership and strong scientific involvement in the ROSAT mission. | 2017 | Bernard Delabre | in recognition of his leading role in the optical design of astronomical telescopes, cameras and spectrographs over the past 40 years. | 2018 | Andrzej Udalski | in recognition of the role as driving force behind OGLE (Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment), one of the most successful and longest running sky-variability surveys ever undertaken. OGLE has made a significant impact on many fields in modern astrophysics. |
