John (Jean) Iliopoulos (Greek: Ιωάννης Ηλιόπουλος; 1940) is a Greek physicist. He is the first person to present the Standard Model of particle physics in a single report.[1] He is best known for his prediction of the charm quark with Sheldon Glashow and Luciano Maiani (the "GIM mechanism").[2] Iliopoulos is also known for demonstrating the cancellation of anomalies in the Standard model.[3] He is further known for the Fayet-Iliopoulos D-term formula, which was introduced in 1974. He is currently an honorary member of Laboratory of theoretical physics of École Normale Supérieure, Paris.
