The Edison Volta Prize is awarded biannually by the European Physical Society (EPS) to individuals or groups of up to three people in recognition of outstanding achievements in physics. The award consists of a diploma, a medal, and 10,000 euros in prize money. The award has been established in 2012 by the Centro di Cultura Scientifica "Alessandro Volta", Edison S.p.A and the European Physical Society.[1]

2016 Laureate

2016 - The 2016 EPS Edison Volta Prize as been awarded to

  • Michel A.G. Orrit, University of Leiden, the Netherlands

for "seminal contributions to optical science, to the field of single-molecule spectroscopy and imaging (first single molecule detection by fluorescence and first optical detection of magnetic resonance in single molecule) and for pioneering investigations into the photoblinking and photobleaching behaviors of individual molecules at the heart of many current optical super-resolution experiments."

2015 Laureates

The 2015 EPS Edison Volta Prize has been awarded to the three principal scientific leaders of the European Space Agency’s (ESA) Planck Mission:

  • Nazzareno Mandolesi, University of Ferrara, Italy
  • Jean-Loup Puget, Institut d'Astrophysique Spatiale, Université Paris Sud & CNRS, France
  • Jan Tauber, Directorate of Science and Robotic Exploration, European Space Agency

"for directing the development of the Planck payload and the analysis of its data, resulting in the refinement of our knowledge of the temperature fluctuations in the Cosmic Microwave Background as a vastly improved tool for doing precision cosmology at unprecedented levels of accuracy, and consolidating our understanding of the very early universe. "

2014 Laureate

2014 EPS Edison Volta Prize was awarded to:

  • Jean-Michel Raimond, Université Pierre et Marie Curie, Professor

"for seminal contribution to physics (that) have paved the way for novel explorations of quantum mechanics and have opened new routes in quantum information processing"

2012 Laureates

2012 EPS Edison Volta Prize was awarded 12 November 2012 to:

  • Rolf-Dieter Heuer, CERN Director General,
  • Sergio Bertolucci, CERN Director for Research and Computing,
  • Stephen Myers, CERN Director for Accelerators and Technology,

"for having led, building on decades of dedicated work by their predecessors, the culminating efforts in the direction, research and operation of the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC), which resulted in many significant advances in high energy particle physics, in particular, the first evidence of a Higgs-like boson in July 2012".[2]
