Awards and Recognition
Fellow of the American Physical Society 2023 for "pioneering studies of the electronic structure and the nematic and superconducting orders of iron-based superconductors, using quantum oscillations, photoemission, and other techniques". Recommended by the APS Division of Condensed Matter Physics (DCMP) the fellowship was awarded at the APS March meeting 2024 in Minneapolis.
Brian Pippard Prize 2019 on Superconductivity from the UK Institute of Physics (IOP) for "pioneering studies of the electronic structure and electronic properties of iron-based superconductors. Soon after the discovery of this class of superconductors, Prof. Coldea was able to make precise models of the Fermi surface of these novel materials using a combination of quantum oscillation measurements, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and bandstructure calculations. The accepted models for iron-based superconductivity are based on the Fermi surfaces and bandstructures verified by Prof. Coldea and her co-workers".
EuroMagnet Prize 2011 from the European High Magnetic Field Laboratory (EMFL) "for outstanding contribution to the understanding of the electronic structure of iron-based superconductors by using high magnetic fields". The prize was awarded at the EuroMagnet II User Meeting in Toulouse.
