Dr Alan Jones

To give him his full name, Alwyn Eurosswydd Teilo Gynne-Jones but known to his friends as Pryderi. Aged 38, married, wife called Angharad and three children, Addiena, Alun and Anwell, (obviously did not get past the first page of Welsh names) Live in North Oxford and is Professor of Chemical Engineering at the University. Was jointly awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1994 with Bertram Brockhouse and Clifford Shull for “pioneering contributions to the development of neutron scattering techniques for studies of condensed matter". Although rarely is he cited, possibly due to his chemistry background.
It is believed he suffers from a mild form of Werner’s syndrome, which accounts for the discrepancy in the picture alongside, which was taken 2 years ago, and the photograph at the MHS last week.
Must get back to the serious work though, there are just too many murders in Oxford to solve.
