Roger John Barlow was a British particle physicist and co-founder of the Cockcroft Institute[1], working for the majority of his career at the University of Manchester and latterly at the University of Huddersfield.
During his career, he worked on a variety of particle physics experiments at DESY (including experiments concerned with the discovery of the gluon and measurement of the B lifetime), CERN (on OPAL doing precision studies of the Z particle), and notably at the BaBar experiment at SLAC which discovered CP violation in B mesons.
Prof. Barlow was the principal investigator of the project to construct the EMMA particle accelerator, the first demonstration of a so-called non-scaling FFAG. He authored a well-regarded textbook on undergraduate statistics[2], and was a proponent of accelerator-driven subcritical reactors through his founding of the ThorEA association. He also founded the Particle Physics Masterclass.
