Professor Andrzej Buras | Awarded with the "J. J. Sakurai Prize for Theoretical Particle Physics 2024"

Prof. Dr. Andrzej J. Buras is awarded with the "J. J. Sakurai Prize for Theoretical Particle Physics 2024" by the American Physical Society. He receives the prize: "for exceptional contributions to quark-flavor physics, in particular, developing and carrying out calculations of higher-order QCD effects to electroweak transitions, as well as for drawing phenomenological connections between kaons, D mesons, and B mesons."

The prestigious award from the American Physical Society has been presented annually for almost 40 years and will go to Germany and TUM for the first time in 2024. The J. J. Sakurai Prize is often awarded to two to four scientists at the same time. Andrzej Buras is only the fourth European to be awarded this prize as an individual scientist.

Our congratulations to Andrzej Buras on this special honor!
