Holger Bech Nielsen (born 25 August 1941) is a
professor emeritus at the Niels Bohr Institute, at the University of Copenhagen
, where he started studying physics in 1961.
Work
Nielsen has made original contributions to theoretical
Nielsen-Ninomiya no-go theorem
for representing chiral fermions on the lattice. In the original Dual-Models, which later would be recognized as the origins of string theory, the Koba-Nielsen variables are also named after him and his collaborator Ziro Koba.
Nielsen is known in Denmark for his enthusiastic public lectures on physics and string theory, and he is often interviewed in daily news, especially on matters regarding particle physics.
In a series of papers uploaded to
Grandfather paradox.[2] Subsequently the LHC claimed the discovery of Higgs boson on 4 July 2012.[3]
Nielsen is a member of the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters.[4]
