Homi Bhabha Medal and Prize

The Homi Bhabha Medal and Prize is awarded every two years, jointly by the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP) and the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR). The award, established in 2010 in honor of Homi J. Bhabha, consists of a certificate, a medal, an award of 250,000 Indian rupees, and an invitation to visit and to give public lectures at the TIFR in Mumbai and the Cosmic Ray Laboratory in Ooty. The award ceremony take place at the biennial International Cosmic Ray Conference (ICRC). The recipient is "an active scientist who has made distinguished contributions in the field of high-energy cosmic-ray physics and astroparticle physics over an extended academic career." The inaugural award was made in 2011 to Sir Arnold Wolfendale.

There are several different awards named in honor of the physicist Homi J. Bhabha — for example, the Homi Bhabha Medal (in five different categories) awarded by the Nuclear Fuel Complex of the Department of Atomic Energy of the Government of India.
