For continuing and significant contributions in the field of large scale applications of superconductivity, in particular,
for his leadership of a group of scientists at the Superconducting Super Collider (SSC) project who defined test procedures and analytic tools for assessing conformity of magnet performance to the design specifications
for managing the Next Europe Dipole (NED) program, which successfully developed a high performance Nb3Sn wire and carried out the design analyses of a 88-mm-aperture, 15-T dipole magnet for LHC upgrade, and,
for his activities as Technical Responsible Officer for the in-kind procurement of the superconducting Cable-In-Conduit Conductors (CICCs) used in the manufacture of the sophisticated magnet system at the heart of the ITER tokamak.
