The 2022 award goes to a trio of experimental physicists for their pioneering work in quantum mechanics
The trio won “for experiments with entangled photons, establishing the violation of Bell inequalities and pioneering quantum information science.” Each winner has conducted experiments using “entangled quantum states,” which sees two particles behave as one and affect each other, even though they are apart. Aspect, Clauser and Zeilinger were born in France, California and Austria respectively.
Their discoveries have added to and furthered the work of John Stewart Bell, whose theorem changed the scientific world’s understand of quantum mechanics. The work of the trio “has laid the foundation for a new era of quantum technology,” the Royal Swedish Academy Of Sciences said. This is a breaking story.
