Jens Oluf Andersen

Jens Oluf Andersen is a Professor in the Department of Physics at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). His research focuses on quantum chromodynamics (QCD) at extreme conditions, including finite temperature/density systems, Bose-Einstein condensation, and renormalization group methods. He has contributed to understanding pion condensation, color superconductivity, and effective field theory applications in dense quark matter.

Key research interests include: Quantum Chromodynamics (finite temperature/density), Cold Bose/Fermi gases, Chiral Perturbation Theory, and the interplay between magnetic fields and QCD phase transitions. His work bridges theoretical models with lattice QCD data, particularly in inverse magnetic catalysis and phase diagram validation.

Publications span high-impact journals like Physical Review D and Journal of High Energy Physics, emphasizing non-perturbative methods and effective field theory. Collaborations involve institutions globally, addressing topics from quark-gluon plasma dynamics to cosmological inflation models. Students supervised include Vegard Undheim (MSc 2021), Lars Husdal (PhD 2017), and others in theoretical physics.
