Biography:Hiroshi Suura
Hiroshi Suura (born August 19, 1925, Hiroshima, Japan – September 15, 1998) was a Japanese theoretical physicist, specializing in particle physics.
Education and career
Suura graduated in 1947 with a B.S. from the University of Tokyo[1] and in 1954 with a Ph.D. in physics from Hiroshima University. From September 1955 to June 1956 he did research at the Institute for Advanced Study.[2] From 1960 to 1965 he was a professor at Nihon University. From 1965 until his retirement as professor emeritus, he was a professor at the University of Minnesota.[1]
In the theory of infrared corrections, Suura made important contributions, essential for many precise measurements involving elementary particles, especially electrons.[3]
... another theme running through Hiroshi’s work and connecting it to the major issues of today’s particle physics is the idea of “particles in loops.” One of his most-quoted results concerns the effect of electron loops in the calculation of the muon’s anomalous magnetic moment aμ ... This leads to a difference between aμ and the corresponding quantity ae for the electron, which was confirmed in beautiful experiments at CERN ... and is still the subject of intense scrutiny ...[3]
He was elected in 1967 a Fellow of the American Physical Society.[4] On June 1, 1994, the University of Minnesota held a colloquium in honor of Hiroshi Suura. After his death, the Physical Society of Japan published a collection of articles as a memorial to him.[3]
