Nominator's project description
| Professor Otsuka is an outstanding researcher in the field of theoretical nuclear structure physics. His research has transformed the way we think about nuclei as interacting quantum many-body systems. He has introduced key concepts, such as shell evolution in exotic nuclei, and computational methods that are critical for our modern understanding of complex nuclei. In Germany, Professor Otsuka will collaborate with experimental and theoretical working groups to advance the frontiers in nuclear structure theory and experiments. |
