Gerald Gabrielse is an American physicist. He is the Board of Trustees Professor of Physics and director of the Center for Fundamental Physics at Northwestern University, and Emeritus George Vasmer Leverett Professor of Physics at Harvard University. He is primarily known for his experiments trapping and investigating antimatter, measuring the electron g-factor,[1] and measuring the electron electric dipole moment.[2] He has been described as "a leader in super-precise measurements of fundamental particles and the study of anti-matter."[3]
