Niebuhr's expertise is in experimental particle physics, with a record in rare and forbidden muon- and pion-decay experiments at PSI and Saturne (Saclay, France); the ep collider experiment H1 at HERA, and the e+e- collider experiments Belle&Belle II at KEK (Japan). Examples of Niebuhr's physics activities are measurements of proton structure and heavy flavour physics, and the construction and operation of track and vertex detectors. Furthermore, Niebuhr participates in a local DESY experiment to study gravitation at very small acceleration in the laboratory.
