Wilfried Nörtershäuser
Wilfried Nörtershäuser (* 1967 ) is a German physicist . Since 2012 he has been Professor of Experimental Physics at the Technical University of Darmstadt .
Life
Nörtershäuser first trained as a chemical laboratory technician and then worked as a technical employee. From 1990 to 1995 he studied physics at the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz . There he received his doctorate in 1999. He then worked as a postdoc at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in the USA and as a research assistant at the Eberhard-Karls University of Tübingen . From 2005 to 2011 Nörtershäuser headed a Helmholtz university junior research group, which dealt with the topic of "Laser Spectroscopy of Exotic Atoms and Highly Charged Ions" (LaserSpHERe). In 2009 he received a junior professorship at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz. In 2012 he became a university professor for "Experimental Atomic and Nuclear Physics of Radioactive Nuclides" at the Technical University of Darmstadt.
Scientific work
In over 120 publications he deals with the range of topics of laser spectroscopy. His h-index was 27 in December 2015.
In 2017, a team with Nörtershäuser succeeded in measuring the energy levels of bismuth atoms very precisely, which could open up a different perspective on the interplay between electron and atomic nucleus.
