About T. Bill Sutherland
- Bill Sutherland (born March 31, 1942) is a notable American theoretical physicist.
- He received his BA from Washington University in St.
- Louis and his PhD in 1968 while studying under Nobel laureate C.
- N.
- Yang at Stony Brook.
- He is best known for his work in statistical mechanics and quantum many body theory.
- Early in his career he solved the six vertex model and developed an exact solution in 1967, which he then followed with the eight vertex model in 1970.
- He completed his postdoctoral work at Berkeley in the 1969-1971 time frame where he became interested in inverse square potential many body interactions.
- He then became a professor of physics at the University of Utah in 1971 where he worked until his retirement in 2004.
- Most notably his name is associated with the Calogero-Sutherland model which is a major research area in theoretical physics and mathematics.For his profound contributions to the field of exactly solvable models in statistical mechanics and many-body physics, Sutherland was a co-recipient of the American Physical Society's 2019 Dannie Heineman Prize for Mathematical Physics, alongside Francesco Calogero and Michel Gaudin.
