He predicted the omega minus particle as a result of his work with Yuval Ne'eman to organize particles based on their symmetric association, known as the eightfold way.
In his early work, he derived the relativistic two-body Bethe-Salpeter equation from field theory, and with Keith Brueckner, he published an exact formula for the correlation energy of an electron gas at high density. His work on cosmic rays led to a formula relating charge to isospin, baryon number, and strangeness, which is named for Nishijima and this man.
