Honors

John Buckmaster was elected as the fellow of American Physical Society in 1986. He is also fellow of Institute of Physics (1999), Combustion Institute.[2] He is the recipient of Ya. B. Zeldovich Gold Medal (2004) from Combustion Institute,[3] Alexander von Humboldt U.S. Senior Scientist Award, Propellants and Combustion Prize (2002) from AIAA, etc. The Buckmaster equation is named after him.

gollark: Especially given that it has many cases which are not very special.
gollark: ```Admins and moderators interpret the rules. You cannot argue about special cases.```Yet another ridiculous bit.
gollark: ```Advertising or installing software that could be considered malicious or dangerous without the player’s informed consent is forbidden.```Wait, so... to advertise stuff... you need informed consent... but you can't inform them?
gollark: You can use this as a rough template for an "antivirus".
