For significant and sustained contributions in the field of superconductor high frequency detectors and mixers, in particular:
for pioneering the development of SIS devices as mixers and detectors of microwave and millimeter wave radiation specifically for radio astronomy,
for pioneering the use of superconductor transition edge bolometers and arrays of these bolometers with SQUID readout electronics which have been used for many astronomical applications, and
for his many contributions to the mapping of the sky at millimeter wavelengths using superconducting
