Yasunori Nomura (born 1974) is a

Kavli Institute for the Physics and Mathematics of the Universe. Since 2015, he has been the director of the Berkeley Center for Theoretical Physics.^[1]

Career

Nomura received his

Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. In July 2003 he joined the Department of Physics at University of California, Berkeley. In 2017, Nomura was elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society "for pioneering contributions to a variety of areas of particle theory, including gauge unification in extra dimensions, electroweak symmetry breaking, supersymmetric models, dark matter, the multiverse, foundations of quantum mechanics, and black holes."^[2]^[3]

Work

Nomura works on particle physics, quantum gravity, and cosmology. He developed

pseudo-Nambu–Goldstone boson.^[5] He also proposed that the eternally inflating multiverse is the same thing as quantum many worlds.^[6]^[7]
