Hans-Jürgen Mikeska
Hans-Jürgen Mikeska (born July 19, 1937 in Berlin ) is a professor emeritus for theoretical physics at the University of Hanover .
Hans-Jürgen Mikeska received his doctorate in 1963 under Wilhelm Brenig at the Technical University of Munich on the subject of "The structure of giant resonance in light nuclei". Then he researched a. a. as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Maryland . In 1969 he completed his habilitation at the Technical University of Munich with a thesis on the theory of superfluid helium; In 1971 he took over the professorship in Hanover.
The focus of his scientific work is theoretical solid-state physics , in particular the theory of magnetism . His important publications on soliton-like excitations in quasi-one-dimensional magnets have influenced numerous theoretical and experimental research in this area.
His doctoral students include the later professors for theoretical physics Holger Frahm and Walter Selke as well as the professor for physiology Klaus-Dietrich Kniffki .
In 2008 Hans-Jürgen Mikeska was named an 'Outstanding Referee' of the American Physical Society .
