The 2023 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to three physicists: Pierre Agostini of Ohio State University, Ferenc Krausch of the Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics, and Anne L’Huillet of Pierre and Marie Curie University. This was reported by representatives of the Nobel Committee. ceremonies.
Three Nobel laureates have demonstrated a way to create extremely short pulses of light that can be used to study electrons inside atoms and molecules.
In the world of electrons, changes occur in a few tenths of an attosecond; An attosecond is so short that a number of changes occur in one second equivalent to the number of seconds that have passed since the birth of the Universe. The laureates’ experiments led to light pulses measured in attoseconds. These pulses can be used to obtain images of processes inside atoms and molecules.
The 2022 award is for quantum entanglement experiments, studies of violations of Bell inequalities, and “innovation in quantum information science.”
