The William G. Dunbar Award was first established at the 1982 High
Voltage Workshop as the "High Voltage Award", and was renamed in 2002
to commemorate William G. Dunbar's lifetime of contributions to high
voltage technology, and his leadership in the High Voltage Workshops.
The Dunbar Award is intended to recognize individuals for continuing
contributions to high voltage research, development, or testing
technology and for transferring that technology to the engineering and
scientific community.
The Germeshausen Award was established in 1990, at the 19th Power
Modulator Symposium. It is named after Kenneth J. Germeshausen, in
honor of his pioneering work on thyratrons. The award recognizes
outstanding contributions in the science and technology of power
modulators and related pulse power.
The Sol Schneider Award was established in 2004 as the Power Modulator
Conference Service Award to recognize extensive service, contributions
and leadership, both technically and administratively, in the power
modulator field. The award recognizes both continuing contributions to
power modulator research, development, and test technology, as well as
the dedication to the advancement of the field through fostering the
power modulator community.
