Son of January Kazimierz Danysz.
In 1952, he co-discovered with Jerzy Pniewski a new kind of matter, an atomic nucleus, which alongside a proton and neutron contains a third particle: the lambda hyperon (Λ0). Ten years later, they obtained a hypernucleus in excited state, and the following year a hypernucleus with two lambda hyperons.
