Awards 2007
IBA-Europhysics Prize 2007 |
| In 2007 Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Enghardt (OncoRay/FZD) and Dr. Dieter Schardt (GSI Darmstadt) received the IBA-Europhysics Prize 2007 for their excellent contributions in the development of tumour therapy with heavy ions. This kind of radiation therapy presents one of the most promising innovations in cancer treatment in the decades to come. The therapy is based on particularly effective radiation, which has to be directed into the tumour with high precision. This can only be achieved by accurately planning the radiation treatment as well as by an exact position of the ion beam, for which Prof. Enghardt developed an intelligent measuring method. |

For his research on the behaviour of reactor pressure vessels, ranging from severe accidents to core meltdown scenarios, Dr. Hans-Georg Willschütz was awarded the renowned Karl Wirtz Prize by the Kerntechnische Gesellschaft on 21 May 2007. This prize is awarded every three years for excellent scientific achievements in the nuclear technology field. In addition, the prize is to promote advances in research and technology for the peaceful use of nuclear energy. |

On 27 September 2007 Dr. Dr. h. c. Peter Joehnk received a medal of honour for his long-term cooperation with the Slovakian University of Technology Bratislava, especially for his efforts in improving the conditions for research and teaching there. Currently, the Administrative Director of Forschungszentrum Dresden-Rossendorf is engaged in the "Slowakion" project, which envisages building up a joint Saxon-Slovakian ion and plasma centre in Slovakia. This was agreed upon by Saxon State Minister for Science and the Arts Dr. Eva-Maria Stange, and the Slovakian Vice Prime Minister, Dusan Čaplovič, at a meeting in Dresden on 15 October 2007. |
