Three researchers receive the Nobel Prize for Physics

This year's Nobel Prize for Physics has been shared between Pierre Agostini from the United States of America, Ferenc Keausz from Germany and Anne L'Huillier from Sweden.          

This year's prize rewards experiments on the separation of electrons into classes of light.

Their work showed a way to create extremely short pulses of light that can be used to measure the fast processes in which electrons move or change energy.

The winners will share the prize of 10 million Swedish kronor (£800,000).

The Nobel Prize in Medicine, announced on Monday, was awarded to a pair of scientists who developed the technology that led to Covid mRNA vaccines.

Professors Katalin Kariko and Dreë Weissman shared the award.
