Nobel Prize in Physics awarded for work on quantum entanglement
Three scientists have been awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for their work on quantum entanglement, a phenomenon where two particles can become invisibly connected even though they may be physically separated. Alain Aspect, John Clauser and Anton Zeilinger were jointly awarded the prize for their independent work on quantum weirdness. Their discoveries have broad and potential implications in areas such as secure information transfer, quantum computing and sensing technology.
