Stanley Brodsky

Brodsky obtained an undergraduate degree in 1961 and Ph.D. in physics in 1964 from the University of Minnesota, where his advisor was Donald R. Yennie.After two years as a research associate for Tsung-Dao Lee at Columbia University, in 1966 he began working for SLAC, where he became a professor in 1976.[1] Brodsky's research has focused on quantum chromodynamics, which is the theory describing the strong interactions between quarks and gluons.His 1973 paper co-authored with Glennys Farrar, Scaling Laws at Large Transverse Momentum (Phys.[2] He was the 2007 recipient of the Sakurai Prize for Theoretical Particle Physics, "for applications of perturbative quantum field theory to critical questions of elementary particle physics, in particular, to the analysis of hard exclusive strong interaction processes.
