If we walk east from the church of Sainte Catherine, turning first left, then right, and finally left again, we will find ourselves in one of the most prestigious squares in Brussels, which is considered (in many people’s minds) the “centre of the centre”: place de Brouckèr.
The main research areas at Nordita are astrophysics, hard and soft condensed matter physics, and high-energy physics. It was established as Nordisk Institut for Teoretisk Atomfysik in 1957 by Niels Bohr and the Swedish physicist Torsten Gustafson.
