Lehmann studied physics atRostock and theHumboldt-Universität zu Berlin.
In 1952 he worked at theMax-Planck-Institut inGöttingen, and spent a year inCopenhagen and from 1956 worked inHamburg.
In 1967 he won theMax Planck Medal for extraordinary achievements intheoretical physics. It is awarded annually by theDeutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft (German:German Physical Society).
