Outstanding Referees Program

The Outstanding Referee program was instituted in 2008. The highly selective a
ward program recognizes scientists who have been exceptionally helpful in asse
ssing manuscripts for publication in the APS journals. The program will annual
ly recognize approximately 130 of the 42,000 currently active referees, but in
the inaugural year a larger group of 534 referees has been selected for the O
utstanding Referee designation. Like Fellowship in the APS, this is a lifetime
award. By initiating the program, APS expresses its appreciation to all refer
ees, whose efforts in peer review not only keep the standards of the journals
at a high level, but in many cases also help authors to improve the quality an
d readability of their articles—even those that are not published by APS.

The selection of Outstanding Referees was made based on two decades of databas
e records on over 50,000 referees (some no longer in active service) who have
been called upon to review manuscripts, of which 33,000 were submitted in 2007
. Most of the referees chosen in this inaugural year have given dedicated serv
ice for many years. The basis for choosing the 534 honorees was the quality, n
umber, and timeliness of their reports, without regard for membership in the A
PS, country of origin, or field of research. Individuals with current or very
recent direct connections to the journals, such as editors and editorial board
members, were excluded. The decision was difficult and there are many excelle
nt referees who could not be recognized this year. In this first year of the p
rogram the lifetime of work contributed by a referee was emphasized. In future
years, the focus will be on the more recent work of referees.

The honorees come from 33 different countries, with large contingents from the
US, Germany, UK, Canada, and France. The names of this year's honorees are li
sted below and are printed in each APS journal. All have been notified, and ha
ve been sent a lapel pin and a certificate. Simple recognition ceremonies are
being held at some APS meetings.

The Outstanding Referees are to be congratulated and thanked for their outstan
ding service to the physics community.
