- Professor Bruce Harold John McKellar AC (born 1941) is an Honorary Professorial Fellow at the Centre of Excellence for Particle Physics at the Terascale (CoEPP) in the School of Physics at The University of Melbourne. The International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP) elected him as its President-Designate in 2012. In November 2014 McKellar became President of IUPAP, the first-ever Australian to take on this role. McKellar is a theoretical particle physicist who is known for his work on particle physics and many other fields such as nuclear physics and cosmology. His other work has had applications in photography, atmospherics physics and geophysics, as well as implications for pure mathematics. On Australia Day (26 January 2014), McKellar was appointed a Companion of the Order of Australia (AC) by Governor-General Quentin Bryce, for his service to science, particularly theoretical physics, as an academic, educator and researcher, through seminal contributions to scientific development organisations, and as an author and mentor. The AC is Australia's highest civilian honour. (en)
