Hungarian American biochemist Katalin Karikó and American physician Drew Weissman have been awarded the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. They received the Nobel for their contributions to the field of immunology that led to the development of effective mRNA vaccines against Covid-19.

Alain Aspect, John Clauser and Anton Zeilinger were awarded the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics. They separately conducted groundbreaking experiments in the field of quantum mechanics, which is the foundation for the new age of quantum technology. The physicists got the Nobel Prize “for experiments with entangled photons, establishing the violation of Bell inequalities, and pioneering quantum information science.”

They have demonstrated the potential to investigate and control entangled particles, in a phenomenon called quantum entanglement, an important aspect of quantum mechanics.

History of Nobel Prize in Physics

Since 1901, 116 Nobel Prizes in Physics have been awarded. Of these, 47 prizes were awarded to one laureate only. 

As many as four women have received the Physics Nobel so far. These are: Marie Curie, Maria Goeppert-Mayer, Donna Strickland, and Andrea Ghez. Curie, Goeppert-Mater, Strickland, and Ghez received the Physics Nobel in 1903, 1963, 2018, and 2020, respectively. 

Lawrence Bragg, who was awarded the 1915 Nobel Prize in Physics with his father, is the youngest physics laureate ever. He received the award when he was 25 years of age. 

Arthur Ashkin, who was awarded the 2018 Physics Nobel, when he was 96 years old, is the oldest physics laureate ever.
