Geoffrey Ernest Stedman (born 1 April 1943) is a New Zealand physicist, with research interests including the foundations of relativity, symmetry in quantum mechanics, and ring lasers.[1]
Key Information
Education and career
[edit]Born in 1943, Stedman attended the University of Canterbury, graduating with a BSc(Hons) in physics in 1965.[1] He subsequently went to Queen Mary College, University of London, where he completed his PhD under Douglas Newman in 1968. After post-doctoral research, also at Queen Mary, Stedman returned to lecture at Canterbury in 1971.[2] He retired in 2003 and was granted the title of emeritus professor.[3]
He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of New Zealand in 1989,[4] and in 1994 he won the society's Hector Medal.[5] He won the Canterbury Research Medal in 2001.[2]
