2005 Nobel Prize winner in physics Roy Glauber was at Los Alamos last week to speak at a Physics (P) Theoretical (T) divisions colloquium. Glauber, of Harvard University, received the Nobel Prize for his contribution to the quantum theory of optical coherence. Glauber shared the prize with John Hall of the National Institute of Standards and Technology and Theodor Hänsch of the Max Planck Institute in Germany. They were recognized for their contributions to the development of laser-based precision spectroscopy, including the optical frequency comb technique. According to Harvard's Web page, Glauber's recent research has dealt with problems in a number of areas of quantum optics. He also conducts research on high-energy collision theory and the statistical correlation of particles produced in high-energy reactions.
