for theory, to Jun Gao (Shanghai Jiao Tong University) "for innovative contributions to the precision QCD theory of collider processes and nucleon structure" for experimental physics, to Or Hen (MIT, experiments at Jefferson Lab) "for his role in uncovering a striking relation of the nuclear EMC effect and the strength of nucleon-nucleon correlations, with implications for the constraint of the down and up quark distribution ratio at large x""
