Scientific paper

Robin M. Canup, Daniel Sigman, and David W. J. Thompson received the Macelwane Medal at the 2004 Fall Meeting Honors Ceremony on 15 December, in San Francisco, California. The medal is given for significant contributions to the geophysical sciences by a young scientist of outstanding ability. Citation for Robin M. Canup. It is a great honor to introduce Robin Canup as a recipient of this distinguished and richly deserved award. Robin studies the formation of planets and their satellites-a subject of intrinsic significance and current fascination. As astrophysicists accumulate evidence of planets around other stars, the question of how to make a solar system like our own has yet to be answered. This tough and complex issue has been tackled by geochemists, but just as importantly by a select number of theoretical astrophysicists who deduce the dynamics of accretion. Robin is a relatively new player in this elite group, but her work has put her at the forefront. There are several important contributions one could highlight.
