Stix was elected Chair of the Division of Plasma Physics of the American Physical Society in 1962. 
Professor Stix received a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1969, which led to the first of his three sabbaticals at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel. 
In 1978, Stix was appointed Associate Director for academic affairs at PPPL, and was Director of the Program in Plasma Physics at Princeton University for many years. 
In 1980, he was awarded the James Clerk Maxwell Prize, the American Physical Society's highest award in the field of plasma physics. This award recognized his pioneering role in developing and formalizing the theory of wave propagation and wave heating in plasmas. 
In 1991, Princeton awarded its first annual "University Award for Distinguished Teaching” to Stix for his contributions as a teacher and educator -- having pioneered a graduate program in plasma physics, the first of its kind. (Encyclopedia Britannica, https://www.britannica.com/biography/Thomas-Howard-Stix)
In 1999, he received the Lifetime Achievement Award by Fusion Power Associates.
Married in 1950 to Hazel Sherwin, they celebrated more than 51 years of marriage. Longtime residents of Princeton, they raised two children, Susan Stix Fisher of New York, NY and Dr. Michael Sherwin Stix, MD, Ph.D of Lexington, MA. 
From New York Times Obituary, http://www.nytimes.com/2001/04/18/nyregion/thomas-h-stix-plasma-physicist-dies-at-76.html
Thomas Howard Stix was born in St. Louis on July 12, 1924, and grew up near Washington University there. His family owned a dry goods business, Rice-Stix Inc., that had been among the largest businesses in the city around the turn of the century and existed into the 1950's. The family home on Forsyth Boulevard was eventually donated to the university; it is now the Stix International House.

The Stix Coil began a series of ideas by Tom that revolutionized research in plasma heating and continue to be used today. His paper “Fast Wave Heating of a Two-Component Plasma,” published in 1975 in Nuclear Fusion, remains one of the most often cited papers published by that journal.
