Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser and Anton Zeilinger awarded Nobel Prize in physics for research in quantum mechanics
NEW DELHI: 2022 Nobel Prize In physics was given to Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser and Anton Zeilinger for “experiments with entangled photons, establishing the violation of Bell’s inequalities, and pioneering quantum information science,” at the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in Stockholm on Tuesday.
The Nobel laureates in physics have conducted groundbreaking experiments using entangled quantum states, where two particles act as a single unit even when they are separate. The results paved the way for new technology based on quantum information.
While physicists often deal with problems that at first glance seem far removed from everyday concerns – tiny particles and the vast mysteries of space and time – their research provides a foundation for the future. foundation for many practical applications of science.
Intensive research and development is underway to use the special properties of individual particle systems to build quantum computers, improve measurements, build quantum networks, and establish information. Secure quantum encrypted communications.
Last year, the prize was awarded to three scientists – Syukuro Manabe, Klaus Hasselmann and Giorgio Parisi – whose work helps to explain and predict the complex forces of nature, thereby expanding their understanding. about climate change.
A week of Nobel Prize announcements begins Monday with Swedish scientist Svante Paabo received an award in medicine for unlocking the secrets of Neanderthal DNA, providing important insights into our immune system.

They continue with chemistry on Wednesdays and literature on Thursdays. The 2022 Nobel Peace Prize will be announced on Friday and the economics prize on October 10.
The prizes include a cash prize of 10 million Swedish kronor (nearly $900,000) and will be awarded on December 10.
The money comes from a will left behind by the prize’s creator, Swedish inventor Alfred Nobel, who died in 1895.
