Glauber, Roy J., 1925-
Roy J. Glauber
Roy Jay Glauber
(September 1, 1925 – December 26, 2018) was an American
theoretical physicist
. He was the
Mallinckrodt
Professor
of
Physics
at
Harvard University
and Adjunct Professor of Optical Sciences at the
University of Arizona
. Born in New York City, he was awarded one half of the 2005
Nobel Prize in Physics
"for his contribution to the quantum theory of
optical coherence
", with the other half shared by
John L. Hall
and
Theodor W. Hänsch
. In this work, published in 1963, he created a model for
photodetection
and explained the fundamental characteristics of different types of light, such as
laser
light (see
coherent state
) and light from light bulbs (see
blackbody
). His theories are widely used in the field of
quantum optics
. In
statistical physics
he pioneered the study of the dynamics of first-order
phase transitions
, since he first defined and investigated the
stochastic
dynamics of an
Ising model
in a paper published in 1963. He served on the National Advisory Board of the Center for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation, the research arms of
Council for a Livable World
.
