Arie Bodek

Arie Bodek (* 1947) is an American experimental particle physicists.

Bodek studied at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT ), where he in 1968 took his bachelor's degree and received his doctorate in Henry Kendall and Jerome Friedman 1972. 1972-1974 he worked as a post-doctoral assistant at MIT and 1974-1977 Millikan Fellow at Caltech. In 1977 he became assistant professor, associate professor in 1980 and professor in 1987 at the University of Rochester, since 2005 when George E. Pake Professor of Physics. 1998-2007 he was there Board of the Faculty of Physics and Astronomy.

His dissertation was made ​​the subject of study of deep inelastic scattering experiments off nucleons at SLAC, with whom the early 1970s, evidence for the existence of quarks have been performed and for the Kendall and Friedman 1990 Nobel prize was awarded. Later he continued such experiments at Jefferson Lab continues ( JUPITER program, he was there co- speakers). He dealt with the physics of W bosons, Z bosons, Dileptonen and search for the Higgs particle, where he is involved in the CDF of Fermilab and the CMS collaboration of the Large Hadron Collider ( his group built hadron calorimeter at CDF and CMS), neutrino physics and neutrino ( CCFR / NuTeV / MINERVA experiments at Fermilab ).

He is author and co- author of over 700 scientific publications. In 2004 he was awarded the Panofsky Prize for his wide-ranging, sustainable and insightful contributions to the elucidation of the structure of the nucleon, in which he used a variety of experimental methods in a large number of laboratories
