J. Hans D. Jensen Prize

The J. Hans D. Jensen Prize is a prize for theoretical physics from the Klaus Tschira Foundation in Heidelberg. It was donated on the 100th birthday of J. Hans D. Jensen and has been awarded since 2008 (whereby an annual award is usually provided). It is connected to a research stay (visiting professorship, so-called Jensen Professor ) at the University of Heidelberg, where the Nobel Prize winner Jensen worked.
