Piers Coleman is a British American theoretical physicist, working in the field of theoretical condensed matter physics.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.azonano.com/news.asp?newsID=6883 )〕 Coleman is Professor of Physics at Rutgers University in New Jersey and at Royal Holloway, University of London. He is the elder brother of musician and composer Jaz Coleman. ==Biography== Coleman was raised in Cheltenham, England of English parents, along with his brother Jaz.〔 He completed his undergraduate education at Trinity College, Cambridge and his Ph.D. in Physics at Princeton University in the United States. He was a postdoctoral Fellow at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, Santa Barbara and Junior Research Fellow at Trinity College, Cambridge before joining the faculty at Rutgers University in 1987. Since 2010 he has also held the position of University of London Chair of Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics at Royal Holloway, University of London. Coleman is known for his work related to strongly correlated electron systems, and in particular, the study of magnetism and superconductivity. He invented the Slave Boson approach to strongly interacting electron materials. He is working on research on heavy fermion superconductivity, quantum criticality.〔 Piers, along with his younger brother Jaz, worked on a concert, (''Music of the Quantum'' ). The concert has pieces composed by Jaz Coleman, based on themes from physics such as quantum criticality, emergence and symmetry breaking. They have delivered performances at the Bethlehem Chapel in Prague and at the Columbia University in New York.〔 In 2002 Coleman was elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society "for innovative approaches to the theory of strongly correlated electron systems".〔(APS Fellows, 1995-present, ) American Physical Society.
