Berndt O. Mueller (also Berndt Müller) (born 8 February 1950 in Markneukirchen) is a German-born theoretical physicist who specializes in nuclear physics.[1][2]
Life[edit]
Mueller studied at the Goethe University Frankfurt, where he graduated in 1972 and received his doctorate in 1973 from Walter Greiner. In 1974, he was a postdoctoral fellow at Yale University and then Research Associate at the University of Washington . From 1976 he was a professor at the University of Frankfurt. He has been a professor at Duke University since 1990 (since 1996 as "JB Duke Professor of Physics"). From 1997 to 1999 he was chairman of the Faculty of Physics and from 1999 to 2004 Dean of the Faculty of Natural Sciences. He is a US citizen. He was, among other guest scientists at Caltech (1980), the University of Cape Town(1984), the Institute of Nuclear Physics of the University of Tokyo, the Yukawa Institute of the University of Kyoto and the University of Arizona (1987).
Mueller is concerned with the theory of quark-gluon plasma and evidence of its formation in heavy-ion scattering experiments (via enrichment with strange quarks), but also with chaos in gauge field theories , the Casimir effect, and neural networks.
In 1975 he received the Röntgen Prize of the University of Giessen. In 1998 he received the Senior US-Scientist Award of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation. In 2007 he received the Jesse Beams Award from the American Physical Society, of which he is a Fellow.
