Aage Niels Bohr

Aage Niels Bohr (born in Copenhagen, Denmark on June 19, 1922) is the son of Margrethe and Niels Bohr. (Seemingly) following his father's footsteps, he chose the career of a nuclear physicist, possibly the outcome of growing up among physicists like Wolfgang Pauli and Werner Heisenberg.

He received the Nobel Prize in physics in 1975 (again, seemingly following his father's path, who received it in 1922).
