The Nobel Prize in Physics, established by the will of inventor and industrialist Alfred Nobel in 1895, is one of the most prestigious awards awarded to researchers and scientists who have made outstanding contributions to the field of physics and have made discoveries which expanded the human understanding of the physical universe.
The Nobel Prize for Physics has been awarded annually since 1901 and is one of the oldest Nobels to be awarded. The award is presented by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences along with various other committees and organizations.
The first Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded in 1901 jointly to Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen for his discovery of X-rays which brought a revolutionary change in the field of medical diagnostics and to Henri Becquerel and Pierre Curie for their pioneering research on radioactivity.
The Nobel Prize for Physics is one of the six Nobel Prizes established in Alfred Nobel’s will. The Nobel Prize for Chemistry will be awarded on Wednesday, the Nobel Prize for Literature will be awarded on Thursday, followed by the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday and Nobel Prize for Economics on October 9.
On Monday, the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine was awarded jointly to Katalin Kariko and Drew Weissman on Monday for their discoveries concerning nucleoside base modifications that enabled the development of effective mRNA vaccines against COVID-19.
