Numerous awards recognize their career, including the Nobel Prize awarded in 1986 for contributions concerning the dynamics of chemical elementary processes. Other distinctions include the Kołos Medal from the University of Warsaw and Polish Chemical Society (2011), the Faraday Lectureship Prize from the Royal Society of Chemistry (UK) (1992), and the Peter Debye Award from the American Chemical Society (1986).
They have also been honored as a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (1988), Fellow of The World Academy of Sciences (1986), Member of the National Academy of Sciences (1979), Fellow of John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation (1976), and Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences (1975).
The U.S. President's National Medal of Science was awarded in 1986, recognizing their development of molecular beam techniques and their application to chemical dynamics, as well as the broader impact on physical chemistry and the connection between mechanical laws and macroscopic phenomena.
