    0.04 sec.

Störmer, Horst L(udwig) (1949- )

German physicist who went to the USA to work at American Telephone & Telegraph Bell Laboratories in 1977. A solid-state physicist, Störmer pursued investigations of magnetic and transport properties of electrons in liquids and solids. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1998 - jointly with two other US physicists, Robert B Laughlin and Daniel C Tsui - for their discovery of a new form of quantum fluid with fractionally charged excitations.

He was born in Frankfurt-am-Main, Germany, and educated in Germany.
