About
The BCTP houses theoretical physics research at Berkeley and has close links to Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL).[2] It is located in Old LeConte Hall on the Berkeley campus.[3] Though the BCTP itself was founded at the turn of the 21st century, Berkeley has a rich history in the field of theoretical particle physics, with prominent former physicists including Manhattan project director Robert Oppenheimer; Nobel Laureates Steven Weinberg, Sheldon Glashow, and David Gross; Breakthrough Prize winners John Schwarz, Joseph Polchinski, and Nima Arkani-Hamed; Sakurai Prize winners Mary Gaillard, Leonard Susskind, and Lisa Randall; as well as Dirac Medal winners Bruno Zumino and Stanley Mandelstam.[4] The current senior members consist of 10 UC Berkeley faculty and 4 LBNL staff members.[5]
