For significant and sustained contributions in the development of superconducting materials by advancing the science of both low temperature and high temperature superconducting materials, in particular:
-
for making contributions to the subject of flux pinning in Type II superconductors,
-
for authoring, with the late Jan Evetts, the subject-defining monograph on critical currents in superconductors, and,
-
for his leadership of the Interdisciplinary Research Centre on Superconductivity at the University of Cambridge which promote research across a wide range of superconducting science and technology.
