APS Fellowship

Fellowship in the American Physical Society is a great honor. In accordance with the APS Constitution, "there shall be elected to Fellowship only such Members who have contributed to the advancement of physics by independent, original research or who have rendered some other special service to the cause of the sciences". All division members are invited to nominate deserving colleagues as potential Fellows of the APS.

APS Fellows Nominated by DCOMP  

Filter by Year:


Davide Donadio [2023]
University of California Davis
Citation: For contributions to the development and application of atomistic and first principles simulations to understand the physical properties of materials and nanostructures, in particular their thermal transport properties.


Andrzej Michal Oles [2023]
Jagiellonian University
Citation: For a comprehensive analysis of the multi-orbital Hubbard model which led to a thorough understanding of complex types of order triggered by spin-orbital entanglement in strongly correlated transition metal oxides.


Adrienn Ruzsinszky [2023]
Tulane University
Citation: For the development of electronic structure theory methods, especially density functional theory and the random phase approximation, and their application to materials and molecules, including two-dimensional materials under bending.


Aidan Thompson [2023]
Sandia National Laboratories
Citation: For advancing large-scale atomistic simulations of materials by devising quantum-accurate machine learning interatomic potentials and developing LAMMPS, the leading open-source molecular dynamics package.


Xifan Wu [2023]
Temple University
Citation: For the development of ingenious computational techniques for condensed matter, including a linear scaling algorithm for exact exchange, and for resolving long-standing puzzles about bonding and diffusion in water.


Jin Zhao [2023]
University of Science and Technology of China
Citation: For combining methods of many-body perturbation theory with molecular dynamics to model the coupled ultrafast time scale charge, spin, and lattice quantum interactions in condensed matter and quantum materials within the shared Hefei-nonadiabatic molecular dynamics code.
