"It’s probably one of the most beautiful theories ever invented."
Anton Zeilinger conveys his love for the elegant simplicity of quantum mechanics in this call recorded shortly after finding out he had received the 2022 #NobelPrize in Physics.
Just in!
Check out our new physics laureate Anton Zeilinger at home, where he received the #NobelPrize call.
Stay tuned for our telephone interview with him coming soon.
Congratulations to 2022 physics laureate Alain Aspect who found out he received the #NobelPrize while in a meeting with the physics department of l'Académie des Sciences!
“This prize is an encouragement to young people – the prize would not be possible without more than 100 young people who worked with me over the years.”
– Anton Zeilinger during the press conference where he was announced as one of the 2022 #NobelPrize laureates in physics.
This year’s #NobelPrize laureate John Clauser built an apparatus that emitted two entangled photons at a time, each towards a filter that tested their polarisation. The result was a clear violation of a Bell inequality and agreed with the predictions of quantum mechanics.
BREAKING NEWS:
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2022 #NobelPrize in Physics to Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser and Anton Zeilinger.
