2017 - Member of Academia Europaea
2009 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
2003 - Hans A. Bethe Prize, American Physical Society For his contributions to the experimental foundation of nuclear astrophysics, especially the delineation of the processes involved in explosive hydrogen burning in novae and x-ray bursters; and for providing an intellectual bridge between experimental nuclear astrophysicists and their theoretical col-leagues.
1998 - Fellow of American Physical Society (APS) Citation For his productive work both in laboratory nuclear astrophysics measurements and in connecting those results to specific astrophysical sites
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Nucleosynthesis, Astrophysics, Nuclear reaction, Nuclear physics and Reaction rate. His Nucleosynthesis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Neutron, Photodisintegration and Stellar evolution.
