Daniel Kleppner, born 1932, is the Lester Wolfe Professor Emeritus of Physics at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and co-founder and co-director of the MIT-Harvard Center for Ultracold Atoms.
His areas of science include atomic, molecular, and optical physics, and his research interests include experimental atomic physics, laser spectroscopy, and high precision measurements.
Together with Robert J. Kolenkow, he authored a popular textbook An Introduction to Mechanics for advanced students.
Kleppner's father was Otto Kleppner, founder of an advertising agency.
In the 1950s, Kleppner became a physics doctoral student at Harvard University, where he worked under Norman Ramsey.
Here, Kleppner took the concepts behind an ammonia maser and applied them to a hydrogen maser, which became his Ph.D. thesis.
Kleppner did important research into Rydberg atoms.
Later he became interested in creating a hydrogen Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC).
Kleppner graduated from Williams College with a B.A. in 1953 in Williamstown, Massachusetts.
He also attended Cambridge University in England with a B.A. in 1955, and Harvard University, he attended the Harvard Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, with a Ph.D. in 1959.

In 1995, a group of researchers, including Kleppner's former students, made a BEC using rubidium atoms.
Within MIT he won the institute's prestigious James R. Killian, Jr. Faculty Achievement Award, conferring him the title of Killian Award Lecturer for 1995-1996.
It was not until 1998 that Kleppner and Tom Greytak finally created a hydrogen BEC.
Kleppner has been the recipient of many awards including
40 years later, Kleppner and Kolenkow returned to edit and publish a second edition in 2013.
Kleppner and his thesis adviser (and Nobel laureate) Norman Ramsey wrote the text Quick Calculus, joined for the 3rd edition by MIT professor Peter Dourmashkin:
