Paul Grannis is a Research Professor and Distinguished Professor Emeritus in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Stony Brook University. He joined the faculty in 1966 after completing his Ph.D. and postdoctoral work at UC Berkeley. Prof. Grannis has conducted high-energy physics experiments at leading laboratories worldwide including Fermilab, CERN, and Brookhaven National Lab.
His major contributions include the first observation of rising proton-proton cross sections at high energies, discovery of the top quark, precision measurements of W boson mass, early evidence for Higgs boson decay to bottom quarks, and observation of the Odderon in elastic scattering. He leads international efforts to establish next-generation electron-positron colliders for precision Higgs and top quark studies.
Honors include the W.K.H. Panofsky Prize (APS), European Physical Society High Energy Physics Prize (shared), honorary doctorate from Ohio University, and foreign membership in the Russian Academy of Sciences. He served as spokesperson for the DZero collaboration and chaired the APS Division of Particles and Fields.
Current research focuses on neutrino properties through DUNE and T2K experiments, and precision tests of the Standard Model through next-generation collider development.
