Saul Perlmutter, a professor of physics at the University of California at Berkeley, was among those named on Tuesday as winners of the 2007 Gruber Prize in cosmology. Mr. Perlmutter and his research team, the Supernova Cosmology Project, will share the $500,000 prize with another group of researchers for discovering that the expansion of the universe is accelerating.
Sharing the prize are Brian P. Schmidt, a fellow at Australian National University’s Mount Stromlo Observatory, in Australia, and his research team, the High-Z Supernova Search Team.
