Fermilab scientist Anna Grassellino has been awarded the 2017 Frank Sacherer Prize for an individual in the early part of their career making a significant, original contribution to the accelerator field. The award recognizes her major impact on the field of superconducting RF technology, the improvement of the cavity quality factor Q and more recently the accelerating field gradient and quality factor combined. The award will be presented to Grassellino at IPAC ’17 in May.
