"An outstanding teacher, Christansen exerted great influence on his students, who included Martin Knudsen and Niels Bohr. He himself was strongly influenced by Ludvig Lorenz and played  a major role in establishing Lorenz' position in the Danish scientific community. Under Lorenz' influence Christiansen laid the foundation for the study of theoretical physics at the University of Copenhagen"(Mogens Pihl).
