Professor of Physics Emeritus Philip Pearle has been named an Outstanding Referee of the Physical Review and Physical Review Letters journals for 2010. The award is given to scientists who have been exceptionally helpful in providing peer reviews of manuscripts submitted for publication in American Physical Society journals.
The Outstanding Referee program was created in 2008 as way to recognize the efforts of the reviewers who help maintain the high standards of the APS journals and assist authors to improve the quality of their articles. There are approximately 42,000 active referees and only about 150 will be honored each year. Honorees are chosen by the journal editors. Selection for the award is based on the quality, number and timeliness of the referees’ reports.
