Projektbeschreibung der*des Nominierenden
| Professor Braaten has built a high international reputation through his outstanding theoretical research in several fields of physics. His significant contributions to high energy and nuclear physics have improved our understanding of Quantum Chromodynamics, the fundamental field theory of the strong nuclear force. His most recent work on exotic hadrons is of utmost importance for the upcoming FAIR facility.
In the last 10 years, Braaten has expanded his research horizons into the new field of ultracold atoms, using his mastery of effective field theory methods to analyze the properties of ultracold atoms with tunable interactions. In Germany, he continues his research on systems in the strong interaction regime ranging from high-energy physics to ultracold atoms. |
